Beldum (Japanese: ダンバル Dumbber) is a dual-type Steel/Psychic Pokémon.
It evolves into Metang starting at level 20, which evolves into Metagross starting at level 45.
Biology
Beldum is a robotic Pokémon that has a long body with a set of claws sticking out of its rear end. It has one large, red eye in the center of its nearly spherical head, which is set into a ball-and-socket joint at its front end. A short crest projects from its body and extends over its head. Even though Beldum is a mechanical creature, it still has emotions, the need to eat, and a way of reproducing. Beldum's body lacks blood, and is instead powered by a magnetic force. It uses magnetism to move, communicate, and control its attacks. Beldum sometimes gathers in swarms, communicating with each other telepathically. Beldum is scarce in the wild, but it does tend to inhabit areas with rugged terrain. It anchors itself to a cliff using its hooks when it sleeps.
In the anime

Trivia
- Beldum's number in the Hoenn Pokédex and the Fiore Browser are the same: 190.
- Beldum, along with its evolved forms, are the only non-Legendary Pokémon to have a catch rate of 3, which is the lowest possible. In Generation III, this low catch rate would never take effect, unless the player is cheating or encountering a Ditto that transforms into Beldum. However, in Generation IV, wild Beldum can be encountered during swarms on Route 228.
- Up until Pokémon Platinum, Beldum could not learn any move except Take Down and incidentally could not damage Ghost-type Pokémon outside of Struggle.
- Despite depictions of Beldum levitating in the anime and Pokédex entries noting that they are able to float through the air by employing powerful electromagnetic waves, Beldum does not have the Ability Levitate. However, as of Generation IV, Beldum's evolution Metang can learn Magnet Rise which simulates Levitate for 5 Turns.
- Beldum's evolutionary family evolves into their next-stage forms the earliest of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon—Beldum into Metang at level 20, and Metang into Metagross at level 45.
- Beldum is the only member of a pseudo-legendary Pokémon evolutionary line that only learns one move by level up.
Origin
Beldum seems to be a magnetic robot based on a dumbbell. It also bears a partial resemblance to a bullet, which suits its jet-like flying ability and single move. It also resembles a limb of a Metang or Metagross, a reference to how it evolves.
Name origin
Beldum and Dumbber are derived from dumbbell, a small weight used in weight training.
