⚔ How to beat Aron

  • Fighting and Ground hits for ×2.56 — Aron's Steel/Rock typing is double-weak, so those attackers outperform their score gap.
  • Watch its Normal/Steel/Rock moves — counters like Terrakion take super-effective damage from them.
  • Overcast weather boosts Fighting moves ×1.2 — the best time to battle Aron.

Rankings are estimated cycle DPS (attack stat × move damage ÷ cycle time, with STAB and type effectiveness). Not a full battle simulation.
