sought-after and powerful Pokemon in Pokemon Go. Known for its impressive stats and versatility, evolving <a href=\"https:\/\/therahamiespogo.com\/metagross\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Metagross Pokemon Go<\/strong><\/a> is a goal for many trainers. In this guide, we will walk you through how to evolve Metagross, as well as how to catch it, its best moveset, and tips for obtaining a shiny version. Whether you\u2019re a beginner or an experienced player, these steps will help you unlock the full potential of this steel-psychic powerhouse.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Catching_Beldum_The_First_Step\"><\/span>Catching Beldum: The First Step<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To evolve Metagross, you need to start with Beldum, the base form of this powerful Pokemon. Beldum is a Steel and Psychic-type Pokemon, and it can be tricky to catch, but it&#8217;s worth the effort.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Find_Beldum_in_Pokemon_Go\"><\/span>Where to Find Beldum in Pokemon Go<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Beldum is not commonly found in the wild, so you&#8217;ll need to participate in special events or check nearby locations during Beldum Community Days or other similar events. These events often offer increased spawn rates for Beldum, giving you a better chance to catch it.<\/p>\n<p>You can also get Beldum from field research tasks or by hatching eggs. While it\u2019s not guaranteed to be in every egg, making sure to walk around and hatch eggs could give you a shot at Beldum.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Beldums_Catching_Difficulty\"><\/span>Beldum&#8217;s Catching Difficulty<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>One of the things to note about Beldum is that it\u2019s a bit tricky to catch. With a catch rate that is lower than many other Pokemon, you may need a few attempts to successfully catch it. Use berries to improve your chances, and be ready for Beldum to break free after a few throws.<\/p>\n<p>Once you catch your Beldum, you can start working on evolving it into Metang.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Evolving_Beldum_into_Metang\"><\/span>Evolving Beldum into Metang<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Beldum evolves into Metang at 25 Beldum candies, so you need to gather that amount before you can make the evolution. If you&#8217;re looking to evolve your Beldum as quickly as possible, here are some tips:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Pinap_Berries_for_Extra_Candies\"><\/span>Use Pinap Berries for Extra Candies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When catching Beldum, use Pinap Berries to double the amount of candies you receive. This can speed up the process of collecting enough candies for evolution.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Walk_with_Beldum_to_Earn_Candies\"><\/span>Walk with Beldum to Earn Candies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can also set Beldum as your buddy to earn one candy every 3 kilometers. This method takes a bit longer, but it can help you gather candies over time without requiring too much effort.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have 25 candies, it&#8217;s time to evolve your Beldum into Metang.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Evolve_Metang_into_Metagross\"><\/span>How to Evolve Metang into Metagross<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The next step is to evolve Metang into Metagross. This is where it gets more interesting, as you&#8217;ll need more resources for this evolution. Here&#8217;s what you need:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Collect_100_Metang_Candies\"><\/span>Collect 100 Metang Candies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To evolve Metang into Metagross, you need 100 Metang candies. Since you evolved Beldum into Metang, you&#8217;ll need to catch more Beldum or use the same methods to gather candies for Metang.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use a Rare Candy to substitute for Metang candies, which can help speed up the process. If you\u2019re lucky, you may find a Metang in the wild during special events or raids.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Evolution_Process\"><\/span>Evolution Process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Once you have the required candies, simply select Metang from your Pokemon collection and choose the &#8220;Evolve&#8221; option. After consuming 100 candies, Metang will evolve into Metagross, completing the evolution chain.<\/p>\n<p>Metagross will now be a fully evolved, formidable Pokemon with increased combat potential, making it perfect for raids, gyms, and PvP battles.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Get_Shiny_Metagross_in_Pokemon_Go\"><\/span>How to Get Shiny Metagross in Pokemon Go<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Shiny Pokemon are a special variant with a different color scheme. While there\u2019s no guaranteed method to <a href=\"https:\/\/therahamiespogo.com\/how-to-get-shiny-metagross-pokemon-go\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>get a shiny Metagross<\/strong><\/a>, here are some tips to improve your chances:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Participate_in_Events_with_Increased_Shiny_Rates\"><\/span>Participate in Events with Increased Shiny Rates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Shiny Beldum is available during certain events, such as Beldum Community Day, where shiny Beldum has an increased spawn rate. If you want to get a shiny Metagross, you need to catch a shiny Beldum during these events.<\/p>\n<p>Once you catch a shiny Beldum, you can evolve it into a shiny Metang and finally a shiny Metagross.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Incense_and_Lures\"><\/span>Use Incense and Lures<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While not as effective as during special events, using incense or lures can attract more Beldum and increase your chances of finding a shiny one. Keep in mind that the shiny rate is still low, so patience is key.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shiny_Metagross_Moveset\"><\/span>Shiny Metagross Moveset<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you finally evolve your shiny Beldum into Metagross, make sure to equip it with the best moveset for battles. For PvP, the combination of <strong>Bullet Punch<\/strong> (Fast Move) and <strong>Meteor Mash<\/strong> (Charged Move) is highly recommended. Meteor Mash, in particular, is a powerful Steel-type move that helps Metagross perform well in many situations.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Moveset_for_Metagross\"><\/span>Best Moveset for Metagross<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Metagross is a versatile Pokemon with a powerful moveset that makes it one of the top choices for trainers. Here\u2019s what you need to know about its moveset:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fast_Move_Bullet_Punch\"><\/span>Fast Move: Bullet Punch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Bullet Punch is the recommended fast move for Metagross. It charges quickly and deals good damage, making it a solid choice in both PvP and raids. The move is also a Steel-type attack, which synergizes well with Metagross&#8217;s Steel-typing.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Charged_Move_Meteor_Mash\"><\/span>Charged Move: Meteor Mash<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Meteor Mash is an excellent charged move for Metagross. As a Steel-type move, it provides high damage output and can deal significant damage to many different types of opponents. It also charges quickly, making it a top choice for this Pokemon.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Additional_Charged_Move_Earthquake\"><\/span>Additional Charged Move: Earthquake<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In some situations, you may also want to teach Metagross Earthquake. While it doesn\u2019t have the same synergy as Meteor Mash, it provides coverage against Fire- and Electric-type Pokemon, which can be useful in certain situations.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Evolving Metagross in Pokemon Go is a rewarding process, but it takes effort and patience. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can successfully evolve your Beldum into Metagross and build a powerful addition to your team.<\/p>\n<p>The Rahamies Pogo, one of the top trainers in the game, knows just how important it is to have Metagross in his roster. With its versatility in battles and high CP, Metagross is a force to be reckoned with in Pokemon Go. Whether you&#8217;re looking to dominate raids or just improve your overall battle strategy, Metagross is a must-have for serious trainers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how to evolve Metagross in Pokemon Go with this step-by-step guide.
