Melmetal first appeared as a Meltan in ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', where it and several other {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Meltan}} 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 that decided to take a 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]], causing Ash to unknowingly take it home with him. | |||
In [[SM112|the next episode]], another incident with a Murkrow caused Meltan's hex nut to land in {{TRT}}'s van. After a failed attempt to replace the nut, Meltan and Rowlet encountered Team Rocket, who tried to capture them. When {{MTR}} attacked, Rowlet defended Meltan by taking all of Meowth's attacks, leaving it unable to fight back. Rowlet's pain angered Meltan, who proceeded to defeat Team Rocket with a powerful {{m|Flash Cannon}}. Afterward, Ash arrived and brought Rowlet and Meltan back to the Pokémon School. Seeing how it bonded with Rowlet, Ash offered Meltan to join his [[party|team]], which it accepted after saying goodbye to its Meltan friends. | In [[SM112|the next episode]], another incident with a Murkrow caused Meltan's hex nut to land in {{TRT}}'s van.

In [[SM132]], Meltan watched Ash and Rowlet's battle against [[Hau]] and his {{p|Decidueye}}. After witnessing Rowlet's victory in [[SM133|the next episode]], a determined Meltan climbed to the top of the [[Manalo Stadium]] [[Pokémon Center]] and started calling for the other Meltan to meet up with it. | In [[SM132]], Meltan watched Ash and Rowlet's battle against [[Hau]] and his {{p|Decidueye}}.

The wild Meltan subsequently fused with Ash's Meltan, resulting in it [[evolution|evolving]] into Melmetal and learning {{m|Double Iron Bash}}. The next day, Melmetal was the first Pokémon Ash sent out during his battle against {{an|Gladion}} at the Manalo Conference finals, facing against [[Gladion's Silvally]]. Melmetal managed to deal heavy [[damage]] on Silvally with its newfound power, but nevertheless, it was still eventually defeated by a {{type|Fighting}} {{m|Multi-Attack}}. | ||
