PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Steel Attacker:Metal Claw Iron Head
- Rock Attacker:Metal Claw Rock Tomb
Being the first of a three-stage evolution line doesn't do Aron any favors in PvE, as it's too weak for Raids and Gyms.
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:Metal Sound Rock Tomb Iron Head
🧸 Little Cup
Aron is a powerful Pokémon for the Little Cup, using its powerful moves to rampage through several meta-relevant targets. Metal Sound grants superior energy gains, letting it use the spammy Body Slam and to bait shields. For heavy damage, Aron relies on the devastating Rock Tomb to eliminate opponents. Typical victims include Vullaby, Shelmet, Skarmory, Igglybuff, Ducklett, Drifloon, Seel, Vulpix, and Umbreon. However, it falls short of beating Deino, Bronzor, and Barboach. A solid pick, and as long as you have some answers for other threats it can't beat, Aron is an asset.
Aron is too weak for any other PvP League.
💎 The best PvP moves for Aron are Metal Sound, Body Slam and Rock Tomb.

Catch probability with multiple throws
In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Aron, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.
To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart
Catch rate formula
Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:
CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)
There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.
Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
