Distant relatives of the Future Paradox Pokemon Iron Hands, Makuhita and Hariyama are back from Gen 3 in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. Hariyama is an absolute tank, and being able to take hit after hit makes it excellent in Tera raids. While Iron Hands dominates the lineage in terms of stats, Hariyama is still a great pure Fighting-type option for those that haven't gotten to Area Zero yet. Here's how to get both Makuhita and Hariyama in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
