Magnet Pull prevents adjacent steel-type opponents from fleeing, Sturdy makes it unaffected by one-hit knockout moves, and finally, Analytic causes the power of its move to increase by 30% if it makes its move after all other Pokemon have made their moves.Īs a steel and electric-type, Magneton is weak to fighting, ground, and fire-types.

Magneton has the abilities Magnet Pull and Sturdy, as well as the hidden ability Analytic.

Magneton evolves from Magnemite starting at level 30. Magneton evolves into Magnezone by either being leveled up in a special magnetic field in the cases of Generation IV to VII or by being exposed to a Thunder Stone in the case of Generation VIII. How do you evolve Magneton into Magnezone? Magneton may be a reference to Bohr magneton, a unit of magnetic moment for electrons, or magnetron forms which reside in the core of a microwave oven.Magneton is a cluster of three Magnemite, which seems to be inspired by electromagnetism, one of the four fundamental interactions of nature, as well as being inspired by an air drone.Despite most depictions of Magneton showing it capable of floating through the air, Magneton does not have the Ability Levitate, so it is still affected by ground-type moves, though after Generation IV, Magneton can learn Magnet Rise, which simulates Levitate for five turns.Magneton has been used by more rival characters than any other Pokemon: Blue, Silver, and Wally.Magneton and Magnemite are two of few Pokemon that had their cry changed slightly in Generation III since Generation III utilized a better sound effects game engine and newer game system.

Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is contradictory evidence seen in various forms of media: in the anime episode, Get Along, Little Pokemon, when Ethan's Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it appears to create two Magnemite during evolution, instead of combining with two real Magnemite, in the main series games, when Magnemite reaches level 30, it evolves without two additional Magnemite, in Pokemon Snap, a Magneton is clearly shown to be created by three Magnemite, when two Magnemite get stuck together halfway through evolution in the original Mystery Dungeon games it is mentioned how three Magnemite must come together to evolve, and after evolution, Magneton becomes exactly ten times heavier than Magnemite when it logically it should be three times heavier if it were actually made of three Magnemite.
