Melmetal first appeared as a Meltan in ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', where it and several other {{OBP|Meltan|recurring}} arrived on [[Melemele Island]]. While investigating the sewers, the Meltan were divided into two groups, and one ended up at the [[Ultra Guardians]] base under the [[Pokémon School]]. After being chased out by [[Lusamine's Clefable]], they encountered {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}}, who decided to study the newly discovered species. During their study, the Meltan scattered, save for a lone Meltan who decided to nap next to [[Ash's Rowlet]]. When Rowlet accidentally startled Meltan and caused its hex nut to fall off, Rowlet retrieved the nut before a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Murkrow}} could steal it. Taking a liking to Rowlet, Meltan chose to sneak inside Ash's [[bag|backpack]], unknowingly causing Ash to take it home with him. | Melmetal first appeared as a Meltan in ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', where it and several other {{OBP|Meltan|recurring}} arrived on [[Melemele Island]].

Inside and outside {{pkmn|battle}}, Melmetal tends to act independently without any input from its Trainer. This was showcased in ''[[SM118|Aiming for the Top Floor!]]'', where it attacked [[Ryuki]] because Rowlet was losing to his {{p|Zweilous}}. Later, while battling Ryuki's {{p|Druddigon}}, Melmetal followed up an unsuccessful {{m|Headbutt}} with an unprompted {{m|Flash Cannon}}, surprising Ash. In ''[[SM130|Battling Besties!]]'', Melmetal was revealed to enjoy the theatricality of battling, as it enjoyed the applause from the crowd at [[Manalo Stadium]] before its battle against {{an|Faba}}. In the same episode, it was also revealed to enjoy stretching after coming out of its {{i|Poké Ball}}. After evolving, it gained a lot of physical strength and durability but retained its tendency to act on its own accord and cry if hit by a painful attack. As a Melmetal, it appears quite proud of its physique, flexing its body and allowing its Trainer and other Pokémon to climb on it. | Inside and outside {{pkmn|battle}}, Melmetal tends to act independently without any input from its Trainer.
