Trivia
- Despite having its power increased by Iron Fist, Meteor Mash cannot be learned by any Pokémon who can naturally have this Ability.
- To have Iron Fist and Dynamic Punch at the same time, Hitmonchan must learn Dynamic Punch from the Move Tutor in Pokémon Emerald then use an Ability Capsule in Generation VI.
- While Hitmonchan can know Dizzy Punch in Generations I and II by evolving it from a Tyrogue hatched from Pokémon Crystal's Odd Egg, since there is no way to transfer it to a game in which Abilities exist, Hitmonchan cannot know Dizzy Punch while it has the Ability Iron Fist.
- The power of Sucker Punch is not increased by Iron Fist, since it is called 「ふいうち」 Surprise Attack in Japanese.
