Iron Treads is a quadrupedal Pokémon with a spherical gray metallic body and a black underbelly. On its face are a pair of short black tusks and a black half-moon pixelated screen, which usually displays a pattern of a pair of angry red eyes; underneath them is a metal plate that can be retracted to reveal its mouth. Its most prominent physical feature is a segmented tread jutting out from its back, and extending to the front of its face. This tread is black and has bright red glowing patterns accenting it. Iron Treads also has long black plate-like earlobes, and metal plates covering its legs, which can be retracted to aid in its rolling attacks.

Iron Treads is said to have a cruel nature. It is capable of swiftly curling up its body and rolling like a wheel to attack. Iron Treads will additionally curl up into this form and rock itself back and forth when sleeping. The trails it leaves behind are described as similar to scorched earth.<ref>(November 8, 2022). "[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/books/ The Scarlet Book and the Violet Book]." Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website</ref> It also reportedly fatally injured one of the explorers of the Area Zero Expedition team in the past. In an article from a September issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} magazine, it is said that there have been reports of Iron Treads in an arid corner of [[Paldea]]. It is said to resemble {{p|Donphan}}. Rumors suggest that Iron Treads is some kind of weapon using technology not of this world, though this is unproven. While asleep, it turns itself off, curling itself into its wheel form and causing the energy on its treads to disappear, making them black.

Iron Treads was the first [[Paradox Pokémon]] to be discovered 200 years ago in [[Area Zero]] by the Area Zero Expedition team and recorded by [[Heath]] in his [[Violet Book]]. According to [[Professor Turo|AI Turo]], Iron Treads is an future Pokémon related to Donphan. However, according to a Turo brought to the [[Crystal Pool]] by {{p|Terapagos}}, Iron Treads is a counterpart of Donphan from another timeline. Its true origin is unknown. Iron Treads were brought to the depths of Area Zero by a [[time machine]] built by Professor Turo ten years ago. At some point, one individual escaped Area Zero and consumed [[Herba Mystica]]. This Iron Treads became the Quaking Earth Titan, one of the [[Titan Pokémon]] found in the Paldea region.
