magnemite

Magnemite is an Electric/Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Type: Electric / Steel

Abilities:

• Magnet Pull: Prevents Steel-type Pokémon from escaping or switching out of battle.
• Sturdy: Prevents being knocked out in one hit, ensuring survival with at least 1 HP if at full health.
• Analytic (Hidden Ability): Boosts the power of moves by 30% if the user moves last.

Physical Characteristics:

• Small, spherical body made of metallic material
• Single large eye in the center
• Two horseshoe magnets on either side of its body
• Circular screws on top of its head and at the bottom of its body

Behavior and Habitat:

• Often found in power plants and industrial areas due to its affinity for electronic and magnetic fields
• Can float in the air using electromagnetic waves
• Known to form groups with other Magnemite, particularly during periods of increased magnetic activity
• Relies on its magnets for locomotion and communication

In Battle:

• Acts as an effective special attacker and defender
• Signature moves: Thunderbolt, Flash Cannon
• Strong against Fairy, Ice, and Rock types
• Weak against Fighting, Fire, and Ground types
• Often used to trap and eliminate Steel-type opponents using its Magnet Pull ability

Evolution:

• Evolves into Magneton starting at level 30
• Evolves from Magneton into Magnezone when leveled up in a special magnetic field (in certain regions) or by using a Thunder Stone (in some games)

Interesting Facts:

• One of the first dual-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II, gaining the Steel type
• Its ability to float is due to its manipulation of electromagnetic fields, a concept rooted in real-world physics
• In the Pokémon anime, Magnemite often causes malfunctions in electronic equipment when nearby
• Its design is inspired by magnets and basic mechanical components, reflecting its Electric/Steel typing

• Red: Uses anti-gravity to stay suspended. Appears withoutwarning and uses THUNDER WAVE and similar moves.
• Blue: Uses anti-gravity to stay suspended. Appears withoutwarning and uses THUNDER WAVE and similar moves.
• Yellow: It is born with the ability to defy gravity. Itfloats in air on powerful electro­ magnetic waves.
• Gold: It is attracted by electromagnetic waves. It mayapproach trainers if they are using their POKéGEAR.
• Silver: The units at the sides of its body generate anti­gravity energy to keep it aloft in the air.
• Crystal: The electricity emitted by the units on each sideof its body cause it to become a strong magnet.
• Ruby: MAGNEMITE attaches itself to power lines to feed on electricity. If your house has a power outage,check your circuit breakers. You may find a large number of this Pokémon clinging to the breaker box.
• Sapphire: MAGNEMITE floats in the air by emitting electromagnetic waves from the units at its sides. These waves block gravity.This Pokémon becomes incapable of flight if its internal electrical supply is depleted.
• Emerald: The units at its sides are extremely powerful magnets. They generate enough magnetism to draw in iron objects from over 300 feet away.
• Firered: It moves while constantly hovering. It discharges THUNDER WAVE and so on from the units at its sides.
• Leafgreen: Uses antigravity to stay suspended. Appears without warning and uses THUNDER WAVE and similar moves.
• Diamond: The units at its sides generate electromagnetic waves that keep it airborne. It feeds on electricity.
• Pearl: The units at its sides generate electromagnetic waves that keep it airborne. It feeds on electricity.
• Platinum: The faster the units at its sides rotate, the greater the magnetic force they generate.
• Heartgold: It is attracted by electromagnetic waves. It may approach Trainers if they are using their Pokégear.
• Soulsilver: The units at the sides of its body generate antigravity energy to keep it aloft in the air.
• Black: The faster the units at its sides rotate, the greater the magnetic force they generate.
• White: The faster the units at its sides rotate, the greater the magnetic force they generate.
• Black-2: The electromagnetic waves emitted by the units at the sides of its head expel antigravity, which allows it to float.
• White-2: The electromagnetic waves emitted by the units at the sides of its head expel antigravity, which allows it to float.
• X: The units at the sides of its body generate antigravity energy to keep it aloft in the air.
• Y: It moves while constantly hovering. It discharges Thunder Wave and so on from the units at its sides.
• Ultra-Sun: It’s frequently the cause of power outages, which is why some power plants send out electrical signals that it can’t stand.
• Omega-Ruby: Magnemite attaches itself to power lines to feed on electricity. If your house has a power outage, check your circuit breakers. You may find a large number of this Pokémon clinging to the breaker box.
• Alpha-Sapphire: Magnemite floats in the air by emitting electromagnetic waves from the units at its sides. These waves block gravity. This Pokémon becomes incapable of flight if its internal electrical supply is depleted.
• Sun: They gather in places where electricity is available. They can be found clinging to the steel towers used to support power lines.
• Moon: It sends out electromagnetic waves, which let it float through the air. Touching it while it’s eating electricity will give you a full-body shock.
• Ultra-Moon: Perhaps because electrical lines are often buried these days, the number of Magnemite attacks on power plants has increased.
• Lets-Go-Pikachu: It is hatched with the ability to defy gravity. It floats while emitting powerful electromagnetic waves.
• Lets-Go-Eevee: It is hatched with the ability to defy gravity. It floats while emitting powerful electromagnetic waves.
• Sword: At times, Magnemite runs out of electricity and ends up on the ground. If you give batteries to a grounded Magnemite, it’ll start moving again.
• Shield: It subsists on electricity. As Magnemite flies, it emits electromagnetic waves from the units on each side of its body.
• Legends-Arceus: A bizarre Pokémon with but a single eye embedded in an iron sphere. I suspect this creature levitates due to the magnetism it emits from its arms, which resemble horseshoe-shaped magnets.
