Melmetal

() is a -type Mythical Pokémon. It is the evolved form of Meltan, and can only be obtained through the GO Park in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. It has a Gigantamax form that is only obtainable via transferring Pokémon from Pokémon GO to Pokémon HOME.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Although it retains the same gold hex nut, red cable-like tail, and metallic silver liquid body of its pre-evolved form, Melmetal has a muscular build, in addition of having another gold hex nut for a neck or look like a mask, and black hex nuts on its chest, and each two hands, shoulders, elbows and feet respectively.
===Behavior===
Melmetal was thought to be revered by humans many years ago because of its ability to manipulate and create metal from nothingness. However this was not shown in any media so far.Melmetal was considered a sacred being that lived in a secluded area deep within a wooded land that was full of sedimentary rocks rich with magnetite. When Melmetal reaches the end of its life, it will rust and split itself into multiple Meltan from the small shards left behind. The process of evolution has hardened its body, making it incredibly sturdy. However, it is still in a liquid state and has some flexibility, particularly in its arms. The strength of the heavy hex nut arms comes from the centrifugal force, which allows Melmetal to have the strongest punch of all Pokémon. Melmetal is said to be created when one strong Meltan absorbs the group it lives with in order to evolve. 
=== Natural abilities ===
The liquid part of its body is rather flexible, as shown when using its signature move, Double Iron Bash.
==Evolution==
In the games, Melmetal evolves from Meltan with 400 Meltan Candies. This evolution can only take place in Pokémon GO; in the main series games, Meltan cannot evolve into Melmetal.
In the anime, Melmetal evolves from Meltan by combing with its own species.

==Trivia==
*Melmetal is the heaviest Mythical Pokémon.
**Melmetal, along with its pre-evolved form Meltan, is the only Pokémon in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee! to not be introduced in Generation I. Due to this, its Kanto Pokédex number (153) is not the same as its National Pokédex number (809).
*Melmetal and its pre-evolution, Meltan, are the only Mythical Pokémon to be part of an evolutionary line.
*Melmetal and its pre-evolution, Meltan, are the only Pokémon officially introduced in Generation VII that are not native to Alola, they were native to Kanto. This, however, creates a time paradox as it was only discovered after the Generation I games ended, but it was in the Kanto Pokédex.
*Melmetal was teased during the footage of Meltan in the wild, where its head, cry and shoulder were leaked.
*Melmetal is one of the two sole Pokémon from a respective Generation between Generation I and Generation VIII who can Gigantamax, another one being Garbodor.
*Melmetal is the only Mythical Pokémon to have a Gigantamax form.
**Melmetal is also the only Generation VII Pokémon to have a Gigantamax form.
**As such, Melmetal is also the only Gigantamax-capable Pokémon that can't get the Gigantamax Factor by eating Max Soup.
*The petroglyph in Turffield depicts a Gigantamax Melmetal, implying that Gigantamax Melmetal (or possibly Dynamax/Gigantamax Pokémon in general) played an important role in ancient Galarian religion.
===Origin===
Melmetal's head and hands are based on a hex nut. Its body is made up of liquid metal, similar to mercury. Its giant body structure, great power and status as a god-like being may reference the golem. Its liquid body, single eye, robotic nature, and ability to break into smaller units is similar to the various "Devil" bosses from the Mega Man series.
Its Gigantamax Form may be based on a giant or cyclops.
===Etymology===
Melmetal and its Japanese name, Merumetaru, come from "melt", "metal" and possibly "element" or "mercury."
