Aggron (Japanese: ボスゴドラ Bossgodora) is a Steel/Rock-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Aggron resemble huge black and grey lizards. They stand on their hind legs and use their arms to attack opponents and pick things up. They have a thick, long, black tail that they can swing at enemies and they have large armour plating on their body. Their heads are completely covered in plating. They have huge horns coming out of the top of their heads. Their jaws sit underneath their skulls, which have a long plate going above their heads to protect them. It is on that plate where the horns come out of. Their jaws are small and pointy. They have a point on either side and their top jaw ends with a point coming down covering the front of their bottom jaw.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Like Steelix, Aggron's only real special ability is its incredible defense. And unlike other steel Pokémon, Fire Attacks are not super effective on them because they are part rock.
Behavior
Aggron are very protective of their territory. They are strong and large and behave in several different ways. The first way in which their behavior can be seen is with their territory. Aggron will claim huge areas of land as its territory. Then it will patrol it day and night to make sure no unwanted Pokémon come marching. If a Pokémon is foolish or arrogent to march into an Aggron's territory, Aggron will fight as hard as it can to defeat the intruder or drive it out. Another different behavior seen in Aggron is they are very caring. If their territory is damaged by a flood or a forest fire they will take trees and plants to fix everything, making it nice again. Finally Aggron, like many Pokémon ( Especially Kangaskhan ) take care of their young. Aggron will defend their baby Arons with their life to make sure they survive.
Habitat
Aggron will claim an entire mountain as its territory. Aggron will patrol their territory day and night to watch for intruders. It will attack any intruders found with its full strength. Aggron is suprisingly caring. If a landslide or fire destroys its habitat, it will carry in topsoil and plant trees to restore the beauty of the mountain.
