Metal EnergyHolon Phantoms #95 Pokémon Card

Metal Energy is a special energy card from the Pokémon Trading Card Game, designed to represent the Steel type within the game's mechanics. Unlike basic energy cards which are tied directly to a single type, special energy cards often provide unique effects in addition to or instead of providing energy. The Steel type, introduced in the Generation II games (Gold, Silver, and Crystal), brought a new strategic dimension to the Pokémon world, known for its high defensive capabilities and resistances. In the video games, Steel-type Pokémon are characterized by their robust physical forms and often metallic appearances, residing in caves, industrial areas, or mountainous regions. Their diet can vary greatly depending on the specific Pokémon, but many are depicted as consuming minerals or possessing abilities that allow them to absorb nutrients from their surroundings. In the anime, Steel-type Pokémon are often portrayed as formidable opponents, showcasing their resilience and powerful attacks. Their cultural significance extends to symbolizing strength, durability, and technological advancement within the Pokémon universe.
