==Biology==
===Physiology===
Volcanion is a maroon, quadruped Pokémon with blue and yellow markings on its body. It has blue eyes and a sharp yellow mustache. It has two "arms" with blue circles and it has four yellow diamond-shaped markings on its chest. It has four huge legs, with three claws extended on each foot. Its tail is short and thick.
===Behavior===
In order to conceal itself and vanish, Volcanion releases plumes of steam. It has been said to inhabit certain mountain areas that are considered forbidden for humans to walk. Some people believe that this Pokémon may dislike humans because it was alive to witness the horrible destruction that the great war of Kalos left behind 3,000 years ago.
===Natural abilities===
Possessing a specialized organ that is actually its arms, Volcanion is able to instantly convert water vapor into steam. The converted steam is launched at high pressure, having enough strength to destroy mountains.
Volcanion is the only known Pokemon capable of learning Steam Eruption.

==Trivia==
*Volcanion is currently the only /-type Pokémon.
*Volcanion and Primal Groudon are the only -type Pokémon that are immune to -type moves, both due to their Abilities.
*Volcanion is the only Pokémon introduced in Generation VI to not appear in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, due to not officially being available at the time.
*A number of Japanese fans indicate that Volcanion was partially inspired by the Black Tortoise of the Four Symbols based on the turtle-like appearance with a pair of arms that somewhat resemble a snake, and characters based on the Black Tortoise in Journey to the North possess affinity to both fire and water. Additionally, similarities between depictions of Volcanion within Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel and Gamera, the "Black Tortoise" in the 1990s films, were also pointed out; Volcanion is a fire-type, can fly by emitting jets, protects weaklings, and builds a friendship with Ash Ketchum.ボルケニオン
===Origin===
Volcanion seems to based on felines, specifically big cats like lions and tigers which may lead it to possibly being based on Komainu, statues that are often carved to depict these animals. Its mechanical features resemble a tank, and its typing seems to be based on geysers or steam engines, with its arms resembling the pumps of an engine. Alternately, its steam appendages when put together makes it resemble a teapot or kettle, with its Shiny variation making it look like a golden teapot.
Its nature as a Legendary, including its much more elusive rareness and it tying into being a representation of the natural forces of the world, refers to the hydro geothermal and the evaporation-condensation environmental process of the Earth.
===Etymology===
Volcanion comes from volcano and lion, or a possible deformation of the word cannon or engine.
