BeldumNintendo Black Star Promos #22 Pokémon Card

Beldum is a unique Steel/Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III, specifically in the Hoenn region. It is the initial stage of a three-part evolutionary line, evolving into Metang and then into the powerful pseudo-legendary Metagross. Its body is essentially a metallic sphere with a single red eye, and it levitates using magnetic forces. Beldum communicates telepathically and uses its magnetic abilities to adhere to cliffs and trees while sleeping. Its diet consists of magnetic minerals, which it absorbs from its surroundings. In the games, Beldum is often a rare encounter, known for its low catch rate and challenging nature without a status condition. In the anime, it has appeared alongside trainers like Steven Stone, showcasing its raw power and potential even in its basic form. Its evolution, Metagross, plays a significant role in competitive battling due to its high stats and unique typing, making Beldum a highly sought-after pre-evolution for many players. Beldum’s design, resembling a mechanical eye, gives it a distinct and memorable appearance among basic Pokémon.
