For Pokemon fans looking for these latest Pokemon to fill out the rest of their Pokedex in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, they will need some items that in previous games should have been kept for trades to evolve these Pokemon. However, in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, items held by Pokemon no longer exist, so it's much easier to evolve your Pokemon. the Metallic Spread is one of these elements.
What is metallic spread in Pokemon Legends: Arceus?
Metallic spread is another name for the metal coat in other Pokemon games. Like the Transparent Mechanism, the Metallic Spread is sold at Ginter's Ginkgo Shop, just like any other item in his shop. And just like other items in Ginter's Shop, Ginter's Shop items disappear after catching 20 Pokemon. A Metal Coat is an upgradeable item found in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Ginter offers the Metal paste (Metal Coat) for ₽8.
The Metal Coat can also be purchased from the Merit Shop with Merit Points. It costs 1000 merit points to purchase a Metal Coat. Merit Points can be obtained by picking up Lost Bags throughout the Hisui region.
There are other methods to get a Metal Coat without having to spend money or points. One method is to capture or defeat any Magnemite, Magneton, or Magnezone. Magnemite and Magneton can only be found in the Cobalt Coast time warps. Magnezone spawns in the Coronet Highlands in three locations: Celestica Trail, Clamberclaw Cliffs, and Fabulous Spring. There is a small chance that one of these three Pokémon will drop a metal coat if caught or defeated.
Another method to get metallic coats is to Space-Time Warp Zones. There are plenty of items that can be picked up from the Space-Time Warp Zones, so be sure to pick them all up.
The Pokemon that evolve through a Metal Coat include:
- Onix in Steelix
- Scizor Scyther
Pokémon Legends: Arceus is available for the Nintendo Switch.
