Iron Crown does not evolve and is based on Cobalion, resembling an armored, turquoise robotic goat with drill-shaped horns. Before its official reveal, a sketch resembling it appeared in the Violet Book as a blend of the Swords of Justice Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion.
Iron Crown can be considered the counterpart of Raging Bolt, as both were revealed to the public on the same day via Pokémon Presents. Its curved horns may draw inspiration from antelopes such as the impala. Its name is literally iron crown, where crown can mean a head adornment or a ruling leader, and its Japanese name Tetsunokashira means iron head or iron leader.
Temporal Forces brought an Iron Crown ex Double rare, Ultra Rare, and Hyper rare from 5ban Graphics plus a Special illustration rare from nagimiso, and 5ban Graphics also drew an SVP Black Star promo ex. Surging Sparks added a plain Rare from akagi, and Prismatic Evolutions a Special illustration rare from OKUBO.
