Archic prey on Steel-type Pokémon, particularly on Aron. They clad themselves in fire and forcefully charge at their prey to subdue them. They will melt down ore and consume that if they cannot find prey.
The metal mask on Archic's face softens the damage it takes when tripping over its uncoordinated feet. To attack, Archic headbutts foes to bash and disorient their enemies.
