Iron Island Tips and Strategies

Get the Riolu Egg From Riley

You can get a Riolu egg from Riley once you have driven away Team Galactic in Iron Island.

Evolve Riolu by giving him a Soothe Bell to make it friendlier towards you. Once you have earned enough friendship points, Riolu will then evolve into a Lucario - a strong fighting and steel type Pokemon.

Use the Shiny Stone to Get a Roserade or Togekiss

Togetic	→	Togekiss
Roselia	→	Roserade

You can use the Shiny Stone on a Roselia or Togetic to evolve them into their final forms. These Pokemon will be good additions to your team!

Use Metal Coat to Evolve Onix or Scyther

Onix	→	Steelix
Scyther	→	Scizor

Onix and Scyther will evolve into Steelix and Scizor respectively when it is traded while holding Metal Coat.

Metal Coat is obtainable from Byron at the house in Iron Island after obtaining the National Dex.

How to Unlock the National Dex
