Flamexor
Flamexor is the premium Volcanic Cave tank. Iron Ore starts a costly route, Flame Body punishes contact, and Iron Defense lets it hold night cave fights that cheaper Fire Pokémon cannot survive. Use it when Legendary Scale or Fire/Steel durability is the actual target.

Best Use
- Use Flamexor when Legendary Scale is tied to a real upgrade or build.
- Choose it over Emberal when survival matters more than cheap Flame Ore farming.
- Choose it over Pikafire when the team needs a cave anchor instead of burst reach.
- A successful run should make a dangerous night cave fight controllable.
Team Tips
- Bring a healer or shield support so Flamexor can keep holding the front line.
- Add a faster attacker to prevent the tank route from becoming too slow.
- Avoid bringing other expensive cave picks unless their materials are also required.
Farming Notes

- Iron Ore should be spent only when the team needs the tank plan.
- Stop if the route no longer needs Fire/Steel defense.
- Return for premium cave builds where Flame Body and rare drops both matter.
Common Mistakes
- Using Flamexor for cheap Fire farming.
- Saving Iron Defense until after the dangerous damage already lands.
- Continuing to farm common drops after Legendary Scale is finished.
