Magneton is a robot-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, the result of three {{p|Magnemite}} becoming linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when there are no other Magnemite in the vicinity. Each individual Magnemite has a gray spherical body with a single eye, and a gray and red-and-blue tipped horseshoe magnet on each side. The topmost Magnemite has three {{wp|Phillips head}} screws on its body, while the others appear to have only two. The three Magnemite that Magneton consists of can be linked in several ways. Magneton is most commonly seen as one Magnemite on top, and two Magnemite linked by the screws on the bottom, forming a triangle. In some cases, commonly seen in 3D games such as {{g|Snap}}, the Magnemite will not be connected at all, remain in a triangular formation at rest, and are able to freely move within each other's vicinity to form other patterns. In this case, all three Magnemite have three screws. The magnetic forces that hold the three Magnemite together are powerful enough to dry up all moisture and raise the temperature by 3. | Magneton is a robot-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, the result of three {{p|Magnemite}} becoming linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when there are no other Magnemite in the vicinity.

In this case, all three Magnemite have three screws. The magnetic forces that hold the three Magnemite together are powerful enough to dry up all moisture and raise the temperature by 3.6 °F (2 °C) within a radius of 3,300 feet (one kilometer). It can also be disruptive to electronic devices and induce earaches. It uses powerful radio waves to help it study the surrounding area. | ||
Magneton's anti-gravitational powers enable it to fly through the air. Being composed of three Magnemite, it is about three times as powerful electrically, though not three times as intelligent. Even though Magneton is a mechanical creature, it still has the need to eat. As seen in [[EP195| | Magneton's anti-gravitational powers enable it to fly through the air. Being composed of three Magnemite, it is about three times as powerful electrically, though not three times as intelligent. Even though Magneton is a mechanical creature, it still has the need to eat. As seen in the ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' episode [[EP195|The Poké Spokesman]], food for Magneton consists of electrical currents. It is usually found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain}}, often near power plants. When sunspots flare up, Magneton tends to appear more often, presumably due to the changes in the sun's magnetic field. When rain clouds form, it also gathers in high areas prone to lightning strikes. As seen in [[PS011|Pokémon Adventures]], it possesses the ability to form its electricity into both platforms and barriers. As seen in ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose]]'', it can cause interference with phone and internet signels. In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'' a herd of Magneton can produce an EMP that can destroy computor software. Despite its modern, artificial appearance, carvings depicting Magneton have been [[Media:Neo Premium File 2.jpg|discovered]] at the [[Ruins of Alph]], and one was [[PG18|shown]] in a flashback to the great war of [[Kalos]], indicating it has existed for at least 3,000 years. Additionally, {{p|Sandy Shocks}} bears a strong resemblance to Magneton. It is believed to be an ancient Magneton that was alive 10,000 years ago. As mentioned in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Magneton is known to sleep with its three linked Magnemite either stuck together or drifting apart by a strong magnetic force.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref>It is theoried that its magnetism is unstable while Magneton sleeps. | ||

====Major appearances==== | |||
=====[[Clemont's Magneton]]===== | |||
{{an|Clemont}} owns a Magneton, which he keeps at the [[Lumiose Gym]] so [[Clembot]] can use it for Gym Battles while Clemont is away. It first appeared in ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', where it was revealed to be able to separate itself into three Magnemite in order to dodge attacks. | |||
=====Other===== | |||
Magneton debuted in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]'', where a swarm of them, along with a Magnemite, saved {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} from a {{p|Grimer}} attack. | |||
In ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', {{OBP|Ethan|EP101}}'s Magnemite evolved into a Magneton to save Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}} from {{TRT}}. This Magneton is [[nickname]]d "Number 6". | |||
In ''[[EP195|The Poké Spokesman]]'', a group of [[phony Pokémon interpreters]] deprived their two Magneton of electricity so they would remain obedient. They were convinced by [[Simon]] to cease their attacks on a [[Pokémon Center]]. | |||
In ''[[EP199|Current Events]]'', a Magneton served as a security guard for an electric company's power station. Ash was attacked by the Magnemite assisting Magneton, but when he retaliated with {{AP|Chikorita}}, Magneton attacked as well. | |||
In ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]'', [[Vincent|Jackson]] used a {{DL|List of alternately colored Pokémon in the animated series|Magneton|Shiny}} Magneton against Ash during the [[Silver Conference]]. It proved to be very strong, knocking out Pikachu and {{AP|Cyndaquil}} before being defeated by {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. | |||
In ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]'', [[Wattson]] used a Magneton during his brief [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} with Ash. It was easily defeated by Pikachu, who had become super-charged during an incident at the [[Mauville Gym]]. Three {{pkmn2|wild}} Magneton also appeared later in the same episode. | |||
In ''[[AG058|All Torkoal, No Play!]]'', multiple Magneton were among the {{type|Steel}} Pokémon in the [[Valley of Steel]] bullying a wild {{AP|Torkoal}}. | |||
In ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', an army of Magneton and Magnemite, led by a {{p|Magnezone}}, was owned by [[Zero]]. He mainly used them as a swarm to trap or capture targets by linking together around them. | |||
In ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness!]]'', [[Belmondo]] has a Magneton. It was first used by the [[Dark Clembot]] to destroy electric appliances in a storehouse using Discharge. It then battled [[Clemont's Heliolisk]], which was being used by [[Clembot]]. After a hard-fought battle, it was recalled by Belmondo after the battle had been interrupted by {{TRT}}. | |||
A Magneton appeared in ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose]]'', under the ownership of [[Spinel]]. Spinel's Magneton has since made further appearances in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. | |||
====Minor appearances==== | |||
In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Magneton was defeated by {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} while it was serving {{an|Giovanni}} at the [[Viridian Gym]]. | |||
In ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', a Magneton sensed the disturbance caused by [[Lawrence III]]. | |||
In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', multiple Magneton were lured by the "Miracle Crystal" used by [[Attila]] and [[Hun]]. | |||
A Magneton appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''. | |||
In ''[[AG160|Harley Rides Again]]'', a {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Magneton competed in the [[Wisteria Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]]. | |||
In ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters!]]'', a Coordinator's Magneton competed in the {{to|Floaroma}} {{pkmn|Contest}}. In [[DP027|the next episode]], it was still competing in the same Contest. | |||

Magneton (Japanese: レアコイル Rarecoil) is a dual-type Electric/Steel Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation II, it was a pure Electric-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Magnemite starting at level 30 and evolves into Magnezone when leveled up in a special magnetic field or when exposed to a Thunder Stone.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)
The Paradox Pokémon Sandy Shocks is said to be an ancient relative of Magneton.
Biology
Magneton is a robot-like Pokémon, the result of three Magnemite becoming linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when there are no other Magnemite in the vicinity. Each individual Magnemite has a gray spherical body with a single eye, and a gray and red-and-blue tipped horseshoe magnet on each side. The topmost Magnemite has three Phillips head screws on its body, while the others appear to have only two. The three Magnemite that Magneton consists of can be linked in several ways. Magneton is most commonly seen as one Magnemite on top, and two Magnemite linked by the screws on the bottom, forming a triangle. In some cases, commonly seen in 3D games such as Pokémon Snap, the Magnemite will not be connected at all, remain in a triangular formation at rest, and are able to freely move within each other's vicinity to form other patterns. In this case, all three Magnemite have three screws. The magnetic forces that hold the three Magnemite together are powerful enough to dry up all moisture and raise the temperature by 3.6 °F (2 °C) within a radius of 3,300 feet (one kilometer). It can also be disruptive to electronic devices and induce earaches. It uses powerful radio waves to help it study the surrounding area.
Magneton's anti-gravitational powers enable it to fly through the air. Being composed of three Magnemite, it is about three times as powerful electrically, though not three times as intelligent. Even though Magneton is a mechanical creature, it still has the need to eat. As seen in the Pokémon the Series episode The Poké Spokesman, food for Magneton consists of electrical currents. It is usually found in rough terrain, often near power plants. When sunspots flare up, Magneton tends to appear more often, presumably due to the changes in the sun's magnetic field. When rain clouds form, it also gathers in high areas prone to lightning strikes. As seen in Pokémon Adventures, it possesses the ability to form its electricity into both platforms and barriers. As seen in The Future I Choose, it can cause interference with phone and internet signels. In An Unexpected Picnic! a herd of Magneton can produce an EMP that can destroy computor software. Despite its modern, artificial appearance, carvings depicting Magneton have been discovered at the Ruins of Alph, and one was shown in a flashback to the great war of Kalos, indicating it has existed for at least 3,000 years. Additionally, Sandy Shocks bears a strong resemblance to Magneton. It is believed to be an ancient Magneton that was alive 10,000 years ago. As mentioned in Pokémon Sleep, Magneton is known to sleep with its three linked Magnemite either stuck together or drifting apart by a strong magnetic force.[1]It is theoried that its magnetism is unstable while Magneton sleeps.
Evolution
Magneton evolves from Magnemite and evolves into Magnezone.
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Evolution data
Magneton evolves from Magnemite starting at level 30 and, since Generation IV, evolves into Magnezone when leveled up in a special magnetic field. Magneton cannot evolve into Magnezone in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, due to there being no area in Kanto or Johto with a special magnetic field. Magneton also cannot evolve in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, as Magnezone is not present in those games. There is also no special magnetic field in Pokémon Sword and Shield or Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, so from Generation VIII onwards, Magneton is also able to evolve into Magnezone when exposed to a Thunder Stone.

Trivia
- In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Magneton was originally known as "Recoil".
- Magneton and its pre-evolved form were the first Pokémon to ever change types with the progress of generations.
- Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is contradictory evidence seen in various forms of media.
- In the only animated episode to date showing a Magnemite Evolution, Get Along, Little Pokémon, when Ethan's Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it "creates" two Magnemite during Evolution, instead of combining with two real Magnemite. Similarly, in the main series games, when Magnemite reaches level 30, it evolves without the aid of two additional Magnemite. This is unlike Mantyke, which requires a Remoraid to evolve.
- In Pokémon Snap, a Magneton is clearly shown to be created by three Magnemite. Also, when two Magnemite get stuck together halfway through Evolution in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, they mention how three Magnemite must come together to evolve.
- After Evolution, Magneton becomes exactly ten times heavier than Magnemite. Logically, it should be three times heavier due to it being three Magnemite (39.6 lbs). Magnemite weighs 13.2 lbs. (6.0 kg), whereas Magneton weighs 132.3 lbs. (60.0 kg).
- Magneton is usually depicted with only seven screws, with two of the Magnemite losing one screw each upon Evolution. However, it is occasionally depicted with 9 screws such as in its Generation II and Generation III sprites.
- The 3 Magnemite composing Magneton are usually depicted as attached to each other and only occasionally separating. However, in certain games such as Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Colosseum, the Magnemite are depicted as floating separately from each other and only occasionally combining to attack.
- Magneton and Magnemite are two of few Pokémon that had their cry changed slightly in Generation III. This was due to Generation III utilizing a better sound effects game engine and newer game system.
- Despite most depictions of Magneton showing they are able to float through the air, Magneton does not have the Ability Levitate, so it is still affected by Ground-type moves. However, starting in Generation IV, Magneton can learn Magnet Rise, which simulates Levitate for five turns.
- Magneton is the only Electric-type Pokémon consisting of multiple bodies.
- Magneton is the only Pokémon to share its weight with any of its Paradox relative species, weighing the same as Sandy Shocks.
- It is also the only Pokémon with an ancient relative that is not heavier than its present-day relative.
Origin
Magneton is a cluster of three Magnemite, which in turn seems to be based on the objectification of electromagnetism, one of the four fundamental interactions of nature. They are likely linked through strong electromagnetic force.
Name origin
Magneton may be derived from magneton (various units of magnetic moment) or possibly magnetron (high-power vacuum tube).
Rarecoil may be a combination of rare-earth magnet and electromagnetic coil.
