{{Type|Steel}}-[[Types|type]] [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] ('''Metal'''-type in the TCG) are made of, or coated with, steel. They, along with {{type|Rock}}-type Pokémon and {{type|Ground}}-type Pokémon, are the three types that represent earth's minerals (all three are immune to the [[Sandstorm]] weather condition) with steel representing metal. Steel Pokémon are known for their resilience and strength.
 
  +
The {{Nihongo|{{type|Steel}} [[Types|type]]|はがねタイプ|Hagane taipu}} is one of the eighteen [[Pokémon Types|Pokémon elemental types]].
   
  +
It was introduced in [[Generation II]] along with the {{Type|Dark}} type to balance the {{Type|Psychic}} type and {{Type|Normal}} type, as both types were great offensively, but the {{type|Steel}} type was made for Pokémon defensively. It was also made for its many resistances as pure {{type|Steel}} types had 10 resistances and {{Type|Electric}}/{{type|Steel}} types had 11 resistances along with a {{Type|Poison}}-type immunity for both matchups.
[[Magnemite]] and [[Magneton]] were the first Pokémon to be reclassified from a single-type ({{type|Electric}}-types) to a {{type|Steel}}/{{type|Electric}} dual-type. This was because, like the {{type|Dark}}-type, {{type|Steel}} Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation II]], and the Magnemite family were first introduced in [[Generation I]].
 
   
  +
Steel-type Pokémon stand out for having great defense against both physical and special attacks, and a large number of resistances. However, some Steel types are capable of going on the offensive on either the physical or special spectrum. Nonetheless, '''Steel type''' Pokémon are heavy and thus have low Speed.
To date, there are 6 single-steel-type Pokémon, including [[Arceus]] with the iron [[Plate]].
 
   
  +
While most Steel types resembles everyday objects made out of metal (such as the Magnemite, Beldum, and Honedge evolutionary line, as well as Ferroseed, Ferrothorn, and Klefki), there are a few Steel types that are biological organisms outfitted with metallic armor (such as Bisharp, Lucario, and Steelix).
Steel-type Pokémon possess 11 resistances, higher than any other single Pokémon type. They also have a full immunity to {{Type|Poison}} attacks. They are highly effective against {{Type|Ice}} and {{Type|Rock}}-types but have weaknesses to {{Type|Fire}}, {{Type|Ground}} and {{Type|Fighting}}-type attacks.
 
   
  +
Steel-type Pokémon draw their powers from light based attacks (mostly Special attacks) due to the glistening properties of metal.
Steel types are renowned for having the largest amount of resistances defensively, but have a large amount of resistances offensively, too.
 
   
  +
Along with the [[Rock type|Rock]] and [[Ground type]]s, Steel represents part of the Earth's minerals as types.

Type Steel
Type Steel HOME

The Steel type (Japanese: はがねタイプ, HepburnHagane taipu) is one of the eighteen Pokémon elemental types.

It was introduced in Generation II along with the Dark type to balance the Psychic type and Normal type, as both types were great offensively, but the Steel type was made for Pokémon defensively. It was also made for its many resistances as pure Steel types had 10 resistances and Electric/Steel types had 11 resistances along with a Poison-type immunity for both matchups.

Steel-type Pokémon stand out for having great defense against both physical and special attacks, and a large number of resistances. However, some Steel types are capable of going on the offensive on either the physical or special spectrum. Nonetheless, Steel type Pokémon are heavy and thus have low Speed.

While most Steel types resembles everyday objects made out of metal (such as the Magnemite, Beldum, and Honedge evolutionary line, as well as Ferroseed, Ferrothorn, and Klefki), there are a few Steel types that are biological organisms outfitted with metallic armor (such as Bisharp, Lucario, and Steelix).

Steel-type Pokémon draw their powers from light based attacks (mostly Special attacks) due to the glistening properties of metal.

Along with the Rock and Ground types, Steel represents part of the Earth's minerals as types.

Famous Steel-type Pokémon Trainers include Jasmine, the sixth Johto Gym Leader; Steven Stone, the Hoenn Champion; Byron, the sixth Gym Leader of Sinnoh; Colress, who is part of the new Team Plasma; Wikstrom, a member of the Kalos Pokémon League; Molayne, a former Trial Captain of Alola's Ula'ula Island, use Pokémon of this type as well; Poppy, a member of Paldea Elite Four; and Amarys, a member of BB League Elite Four. Chairman Rose could also be a Steel-type Pokémon trainer, because in his battle with Ash he battled with two Steel-type Pokémon.

Pokémon with Steel-type alternate forms

The following alternate forms of some Pokémon are also of the Steel type.

Relations with other types

  • They're strong against the Fairy type because, in European mythology, fairies lose their power with metals, also, they are burnt when touching them. Alternatively, it could be due to Clarke's Law, "any sufficiently-advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
  • They're strong against the Ice and Rock types because metal tools are often used to break ice and rocks.
