Despite all of its strengths defensively , you should be able to beat it if you add the right-hand Pokémon . The strongest heel counter for Iron Leaves would be a physical attacking germ - type Pokémon . Scizor is in all probability your best option , with its only weakness being fervidness - case moves , and it can resist Iron Leaves ’ two twinge ( Same - Type Attack Bonus ) typings . Scizor also gains access code to good deal of powerful physically sickening moves , like X - Scissor . It also has a relatively high Defense stat , sitting at 100 .
