- Hoenn-region
- Beldum is attracted to incense.

- The Golden Razz Berry is the best berry for catching this pokemon!
- Metagross is Beldum’s final stage, and unlike Beldum, Metagross cannot be caught in its Shiny form in the wild.
- TIP: When you release when the circle is at its narrowest point the circle locks, ensuring an “Excellent” throw if the ball can hit that point, though the circle’s placement makes it a difficult strike. To hit successfully, throw the ball when Metagross finishes its attack.
