A detail I’ve noticed about Iron Valiant is that its chest is hollow. Since it’s based on Pokémon that are all about emotions, this implies that Iron Valiant has no emotions, being a stone-cold robot and all.

Some theories I’ve had regarding the Violet Paradox forms - “Iron” is the company that manufactured them. Lots of companies slap their names on their products, like Apple Watch and whatnot, so that consumers know where they came from. - Their typings were based on a limited understanding of the distant past (A winged creature with dark plumage? It must be a flying type. A monster with sharp spikes? It must have been part electric. Etc.) - The reason that they’re smaller than the pokemon that their designs are based on is so that they’re cheeper to make and more transportable. - They do get kind of “quarky” at night.

My favorite head-canon is that the robot that Hydreigon fell in love with is actually Magearna purely due to the amount of irony that that couple would have.

I feel like Iron Valiant is also meant to be representative of the 'Evil Robot Double' trope you see in fiction a lot. Built by an evil scientist in the image of two Pokemon that are traditionally meant to be caring and heroic. It has their moves, and despite not having psychic type it DOES learn psychic moves... but it lacks their heart and soul, thus the lack of psychic type. Seriously, it's even built by a mad scientist--Metal Sonic was the first thing that came to mind when I saw its style of LED eyes.

One thing I want to point out, is while the future paradox mons are shorter than past paradox, Miraidon is somehow taller than Koraidon.

I chose Violet, Caught the Titan Iron Treads, and named him Autobot Because he likes to Roll Out

Fun fact, Miraidon’s Pokédex entry calls it “Iron Serpent”.

I would also like to point out that Iron Leaves can be viewed as a corruption of justice, as someone created their own sword of justice aka “they made their own justice”.

One bit I want to mention: Iron Valiant and Iron Leaves are both capable of emotion once they are captured within a pokeball. In fact, Iron Valiant takes on it's more supportive and kind traits from Gardevoir and Gallade when it interacts with its trainer.

It's worth noting that Iron Moth's size difference compared to Slither Wing and Volcarona proper is possibly a reference to insects shrinking in size over the course of millions of years due to there being less available oxygen compared to the rich atmosphere of the prehistoric era!

The idea of Iron Valiant and Iron Leaves being able to combine into a stronger pokemon does bring to mind a different powerful green psychic type: Calyrex

The knowledge that Iron Bundle is a condensed metaphor for the commercialization of Christmas both makes me like the design more and makes me concerned for the future

I have a theory on why Iron Moth is Poison-type. In the future, the skies were super polluted with poisonous gasses, blocking out the sun, so Volcarona tried to replace it like the Pokédex says but died due to the gas, so they built Iron Moth to do the same thing but with a natural resistance to the poisonous gas.

I'm surprised you didn't mention RoboCop at all when talking about Iron Hands. The dex entry sounds like the premise to RoboCop almost verbatim; a police officer (athlete) who was gravely injured and rebuilt stronger using advanced technology.

What may be of interest in regards to an Iron Valiant's behaviour, is to refer to both Gardevoir and Gallade. Gardevoir and Gallade both use their Psychic abilities to communicate and sense another's emotions. An empath. Remove the Psychic typing, and they lose the means to be an empath. They're not driven by another's emotions anymore, driven to protect others because of said emotions. Now, they're killing machines. Made to protect themselves and ruthlessly attack anyone what who may be deemed a threat. It's rather upsetting.

For those wondering... The mug disappears because F. Lockstin takes it, then returns it to him later in the video. There is no paradox. The mug has just been brought forward in time. Lockstin doesn't even immediately notice it, which is why he brings it up.

Iron Moth being a Poison-type could also reference it being a solar panel thingy and with how toxic/cancerous UV light rays are and how it could possibly utilize that, as well This thought makes it pretty cool to me now and makes me want to use it
