Magnemite is a seemingly robotic life form that has a gray, circular metal body with horseshoe magnets on each side, and a single, large eye. It has three {{wp|Phillips head}} screws on its body; two near the bottom of its body, and the other is on top of its head and looks similar to an antenna. The two bottom screws serve no noticeable purpose, although they may be its feet as the Pokédex identifies a footprint similar to that of the screw's "head". Even though Magnemite and its evolved forms are mechanical creatures, [[EP101|the anime has shown]] that it has emotions and a way of reproducing. [[EP195|It has even exhibited]] the need to eat, although its main form of nutrients is electrical currents. It is commonly found in locations such as {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|power plants or caves}} with a strong magnetic field. Despite its modern, artificial appearance, [[Neo Discovery|it has been seen]] in carvings depicting Magnemite have been discovered at the [[Ruins of Alph]], indicating | Magnemite is a seemingly robotic life form that has a gray, circular metal body with horseshoe magnets on each side, and a single, large eye.

The magnetic units on Magnemite's body create electromagnetic waves that allow it to defy gravity and can potentially disrupt electrical equipment. Magnemite is not known to be unnecessarily aggressive, but may approach trainers with little notice. It can be attracted to anything emitting electricity or a magnetic field, including gadgets such as a [[Pokétch]]. [[EP030|It has even been shown]] to be attracted to electric Pokémon producing such fields. In the care of a Trainer, it can be a devoted fighter. However, [[EP195|it has been demonstrated that]] it may be deterred unless a strong bond is formed with its Trainer. If a wild Magnemite is approached, [[Escape#Wild_Pokémon|it may simply flee]] on rare occasions, as Magnemite do not care for interaction. However, if attacked, it will start retaliation with non-damaging moves. | The magnetic units on Magnemite's body create electromagnetic waves that allow it to defy gravity and can potentially disrupt electrical equipment.
