Effect

In battle

The user's weight is halved. This decreases the damage taken from Low Kick and Grass Knot, increases the damage taken from Heavy Bomber, and also lowers user's base power of Heavy Bomber, due to these moves being calculated by the target and user's weight.

Outside of battle

Light Metal has no effect outside of battle.
