Read more ↓Beldum is a Steel/Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III, hailing from the Hoenn region. This unique Pokémon is known for its metallic body and single red eye, which is its brain. Beldum is a rudimentary Pokémon, essentially a magnetic cell, and it evolves into Metang at level 20, which then evolves into the formidable Metagross at level 45. In the Pokémon world, Beldum are often found clinging to rocks in mountainous regions, using their magnetic forces to communicate with each other. They are not known for a diverse diet, primarily sustaining themselves on magnetic fields. Their behavior is often described as simple and instinctual, primarily focused on finding other Beldum to eventually fuse and evolve. In the games, Beldum is notoriously difficult to catch due due to its low catch rate and lack of offensive moves, making it a challenging yet rewarding early acquisition for players aiming for a powerful Metagross. In the anime, Steven Stone, the Champion of the Hoenn region, notably owns a Metagross, highlighting the strength of Beldum's final evolution. Its unique design and powerful evolutionary line have cemented its place as a fan-favorite Steel-type Pokémon.
