'''Magneton''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レアコイル''' ''Rarecoil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Pokémon. However, in [[Generation I]], it was pure Electric-type.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magnemite}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Magnezone}} via level-up in [[Mt. Coronet]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Magneton is the result of three Magnemite being linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when no other Magnemite are in the vicinity. There are several ways that the three Magnemite that Magneton consists of can be linked. Magneton was originally thought to be a pure {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon, but it was eventually discovered to have traits of a {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon as well. Even though Magneton, its pre-evolution and its evolution are all mechanical creatures, they share traits with non-mechanical creatures: Magneton are able to feel emotions, get hungry, and reproduce. Magneton has been considered to be related to {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Bronzong}} since both are also half Steel-type Pokémon that float by using electromagnetic waves. In the anime, the size of Magnetons magnets changes in different episodes.

====Gender differences====
This Pokémon is genderless.

===Special abilities===
Magneton emits strange radio waves that can greatly damage various electronic equipment, raise air temperatures by 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit within a 3,300-foot radius and cause earaches to anyone that gets too close to it. Magneton mostly learns attacks that Magnemite is capable of learning. However, unlike Magnemite, Magneton can learn {{m|Tri Attack}}. Even though Magneton is not yet fully evolved, it can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}. On very rare occasions, Magneton can know {{m|Refresh}}.

===Behavior===
Magneton behave similarly to their pre-evolution, Magnemite, in that they generally do not bother people and keep to themselves unless provoked. If they are provoked however, they will resort to non-damaging moves, but, will not hesitate to use more powerful moves if not left alone. Unlike most other evolved Pokémon, in battle, Magneton are very easy to command and rarely lose focus.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rough-terrain Pokémon|Rough-terrain Pokémon]]]]
Magneton usually live around power plants and rough terrain where large deposits of metal can be found, but they're harder to find than Magnemite.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Magneton feed off of electrical charges.

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP268Shinymagneton.jpg|thumb|right|[[Vincent|Jackson]]'s {{shiny2}} Magneton]]

Magneton first appeared in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. They, along with {{p|Magnemite}}, saved {{Ash}} and company from a {{p|Grimer}} attack.

A Magneton is shown in ''[[The Rivals]]'' and ''[[Pokémon World (song)|Pokémon World]]''.

A Magnemite that belonged to [[Ethan]] in ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'' evolved into a Magneton to save Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Team Rocket]].

Several Magneton attacked the Pokémon Center in ''[[EP195|The Poké Spokesman]]''.

[[Jackson]] used a {{shiny2}} Magneton against Ash during the [[Silver Conference]] in ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]''.

[[Wattson]] used a Magneton in his brief Gym Battle with Ash in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]''.

In ''[[AG058|All Torkoal, No Play!]]'', Magneton was one of the {{t|Steel}}-typed Pokémon in [[Steel Valley]] picking on a wild {{AP|Torkoal}}.

Magneton is one of the unseen Pokémon [[Sho]] offers to trade with Ash in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath]]''.

Several Magneton are seen under the control of [[Zero]] in ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

A group of Magneton appeared in [[DP111]].

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Special manga===
Magneton makes a cameo aboard the [[S.S. Anne]] in ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'' as one of [[Lt. Surge]]'s Pokémon ready to attack {{Special|Red}}. However, it debuts in the next round, ''[[PS011|Buzz Off, Electabuzz!]]'', when some of them torture Red with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Lt. Surge has a quad of Magneton, capable of using electromagnetism to create a tetrahedral aura. This aura is able to ferry people as well as attack and trap anything within, as seen in Volumes [[Pokémon Special volume 3|3]], [[Pokémon Special volume 10|10]] and [[Pokémon Special volume 12|12]].

==Trivia==
* The original English name for Magneton was going to be "Recoil".
* Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is no evidence of this in the anime. In the only anime episode to date showing a Magnemite evolution, ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', when [[Ethan]]'s Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it "creates" two Magnemite during evolution, instead of getting together with two real Magnemite. This is similar to the games. However, in [[Pokémon Snap]], a Magneton ''is'' created by three Magnemite.
* Magneton is supposedly composed of three Magnemite; however, after evolution, it becomes 10 times heavier. Magnemite weighs 13.2 lbs, while Magneton weighs 132.0 lbs.
* Despite Magnemite and Magneton's various Pokédex entries saying they can cause damage to any electronic devices in their vicinity, in all of their appearances in the anime, they have not disrupted any electronic devices. In fact, the opposite happens in the episodes in which this evolution family has been the focus, and they actually ''save'' towns.
* Magneton's {{2v2|Red|Blue}} sprite is the only instance where one of the Magnemite's faces on Magneton is not facing the same direction as the other two.
* Magneton and its evolution Magnezone have National Dex numbers that differ by 380, more than any other Pokémon related by evolution.
* Magneton and its evolutionary family possess 13 resistances, more than any other Pokémon.
* Magneton, and its pre-evolution {{p|Magnemite}}, are one of few Pokémon that had their [[cry]] changed slightly in [[Generation III]]. This was due to Generation III utilizing a better sound effects game engine and [[Game Boy Advance|newer game system]].
* Magneton's [[Generation II]] shiny sprite incorrectly shows the ends of the magnets being colored, unlike later generations' sprites.
* Magneton is one of the three Pokémon to evolve via leveling up in certain locations, the others being {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Nosepass}}.
** Of these, Magneton and Nosepass evolve when leveled up in [[Mt. Coronet]].

===Origin===
Magneton appears to be based on the concept of a living magnet.

====Name origin====
Magneton's name may be a combination of ''{{wp|magnet}}'' and ''ton'' — indicating that it is larger than Magnemite. A magneton is also a unit of magnetic movement, and a {{wp|magnetron}} forms the core of a {{wp|microwave oven}}. The ''rare'' in ''Rarecoil'' may be a reference to the fact that some {{wp|rare earth elements}} have interesting magnetic properties, or it may simply be alluding to the fact that it is rarer than Magnemite.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Magneton
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Magneton
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 레어코일 ''Reeokoil''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 三合一磁怪 - Literally "3-in-1 magnetic monster".
