Iron Bundle



Delibird, huh? Funny choice! Yes, every "future" Pokemon has "iron" in the name, but thankfully, that doesn't mean they all just add steel type, with Iron Bundle being ice/water. It's a really cute little robo-santa-penguin with ski-shaped feet, a simple plastic toy sort of shape, a luminous blue pod that replaces Delibird's "bag", and eyes that are once again LED screens, like Iron Treads. In its battle animations, its head can actually pop out on a spring, which is adorable, and while sites like Bulbapedia somehow fail to notice this, it's definitely also supposed to look like an ice cream maker. They're usually bucket-shaped or kind of egg-shaped, and they usually have a rim around the top similar to Iron Bundle's neck area.

Compared to Iron Treads, it's a little straightforward at first glance, literally just "what if Delibird was a robot," but various little touches set it apart. Interestingly however, it's not said to come from the future. Wasn't that the whole point?! Instead, it's said to resemble a machine rumored to have been made by an ancient civilization 10,000 years ago. Depending on how you interpret Pokemon's timeline...couldn't that ancient civilization just be our own, right now?
