this is ashley with watch mojo and today
we're going to be counting down our pigs
for the top 10 steel type pokemon
use flash cannons
[Music]
something's knocking the wind out our
twisty twin tempest
[Music]
for this list we'll be going over the
best examples of the pokemon with the
steel typing
based on their popularity strength and
overall design
if we prove hard-headed and leave out
your pick please share your favorite
steel type
in the comments and as always you can
catch me on twitter
ash so head over there give me a follow
let me know which pokemon list you want
to see next and hey sometimes i open
pokemon booster packs
so come and join me huh
[Applause]
[Music]
possibly one of the most bizarre pokemon
designs ever created
morale is a petite yellow humanoid
creature
whose long black hair is actually a huge
mouth remember what i said
although originally a pure steel type
more wild changed to the slightly more
appropriate steel
fairy dual type upon the release of the
sun and moon games
which is a great combination for defense
it also gained the ability to mega
evolve
gaining not only a toothier design but
an ability
that doubles its strength making it
truly formidable
indeed a little creepy a little cute and
plenty powerful
morwal is a great pokemon
[Music]
number nine bishop
this pokemon is really cutting edge
resembling some kind of
samurai bug or maybe a kamen rider
bishop is the evolved form of pornyard
whom the pokedex claims often leads
packs of them in the wild
thunder wave
although its dark slash steel typing
makes it especially vulnerable to
fighting types bishop is a tough fighter
in its own right
possessing great attack and defense that
ensure its bladed body
is used to its fullest featuring a slick
design as well as a unique typing
bishop will look sharp in anyone's party
[Music]
number eight stelix
stelix wow one of the first steel type
pokemon to appear
stelix evolves from onyx when traded
with a metal coat
trading in onyx's rock type for steel
steelix remains its ground type as well
as its predecessor's blocky
snake-like body but becomes even more of
a tank
boasting incredible defense
stelix also has the ability to mega
evolve which turns its already
impressive defense up to 11
while also boosting its attack strength
and turning its spikes
into crystals as one of the original
steel types
steelix helped define what the type
should be
number seven agron look at you draw
agron in with iron tails
[Applause]
what if godzilla cosplayed as the
shredder the result would probably look
very similar to agron
the final evolution of aaron agron is a
rock steel type combining two of the
most powerfully defensive types into one
beastly wall of a pokemon
as if that wasn't impressive enough
agron can make evolve
increasing its defenses even further
while also gaining an
ability that reduces the effectiveness
of attacks it's weak to
basically if you need a pokemon to take
some hits
and dish out some damage aggron's human
number six excadrill
it's a drill it's a mole no it's a
pokemon
exca drill to be precise resembling a
large mole with
razor sharp drill bits instead of claws
and attached to its head
exca drill is appropriately a ground
steel type
unlike most steel types exca drill is
more offensively focused and is faster
than average too
unfortunately the trade-off is that its
defenses are fairly weak but
with powerful ground type moves and its
powerful claws
excadrill hits hard and fast enough that
taking a hit
isn't that big a problem particularly
since one of its abilities doubles its
speed in sandstorms
[Music]
is fittingly a steel flying type one
more of the original steel types
skarmory is another great example of the
type's biggest selling points
boosting high defense as well as being
speedier than most steel types
[Music]
it also has the highest defense out of
any flying pokemon
thanks to its fierce yet distinctive
look and great utility as a veritable
sky armory this steely avian has had a
popularity that has proven as durable
as its plumage this is one bird we
wouldn't want perching on our shoulder
though
spike number four caesar
last of the og steel types caesar is the
evolved form of scyther
changing into a bug steel type caesar
does lose the ability to fly
and becomes seriously weak to fire but
it gains some
seriously impressive attack and
defensive power and a cool metallic red
design
[Music]
and if you want to see it become even
more of a mechanical marvel
you can mega evolve it which will boost
its strong stats
even higher and give it the ability to
boost the force of its lower powered
moves
and plus it's just really cool alright
scissor hyper beam let's go
number three egypt
[Music]
it's a freaking ghost sword how awesome
is that
a steel ghost type aegislash is the
final form of honedge
basically a floating sword with a shield
that it holds with its tassel
arms each slash is particularly
interesting because of its ability
stance change which alters its attack
and defense
depending on which stance it has
[Music]
it changed with its sword form featuring
high attack
and special attack while it's shield
form giving it high defense and special
defense
it can switch between them with its
signature move king shield which
protects it from almost
any damage each slash may be tricky to
use and to fight against but that's part
of what makes it so
fantastic
number two metagross
comes back with a sizzling meteor match
given that it looks like an
angry cross between a robot a tank and a
spider
you'd think metagross would be steel and
a type known for physical power
but nope it's steel and psychic type
but this pokemon's monstrous strength is
no joke
boasting some formidable power all
around as if it wasn't overpowered
enough
metagross has a mega evolution that sets
it floating and freeing
all four of its menacing limbs for
attack metagross's basic but unique
appearance
and unquestionable power have made it a
long time favorite among pokemon
trainers everywhere
before we get to our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
corva knight a beard in shining dark
armor
[Music]
how does this ufo looking pokemon fly
magnets

magnetic areas
and emits energy from each of its three
magnets bronzong

lucario
[Applause]
we're not sure why lucario is a steel
type it certainly looks like a fighting
type
which is the other half of its typing
but steel
maybe it's how hard it hits because it's
certainly a powerhouse
this bipedal blue canine is a contender
for not only the best steel type but
also one of the greatest pokemon in
general
being one of the few that have come
close to pikachu's popularity
starring in movies and appearing in
games like super smash bros
and with how strong cool and almost
cuddly it is
it's no wonder why everyone loves
lucario
here we go lucario do you agree with our
