Meltan is a naturally curious individual who is prone to wander off on its own. It formed a very close friendship with [[Ash's Rowlet]] after it protected it from {{MTR}}'s {{m|Fury Swipes}}. Also, Meltan looks up to Rowlet and sees it as a mentor figure, much like [[Ash's Noivern]]'s relationship with {{AP|Hawlucha}}. Meltan gets easily scared, as seen in ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', where it was reluctant to follow its fellow {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Meltan}} into the sewer, only following when it was forced. Despite being scared, Meltan will help its friends in any way it can. After joining Ash's team, Meltan easily became close to Ash and became friends with its teammates. Meltan also becomes very upset whenever it loses its hex nut. | Meltan is a naturally curious individual who is prone to wander off on its own.

Like many of its species, Meltan consumes anything made of metal, as seen in ''[[SM112|Got Meltan?]]'', when [[Professor Burnet]] discovered a frying pan that had been partially eaten. Frying pans in particular appear to be Meltan's favorite food. In the [[Poké Problem]] segment for [[SM115]], Meltan was seen happily consuming the frying pan Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} were using for target practice. In ''[[SM116|The Secret Princess!]]'', Rowlet had to stop it from eating another one of Burnet's pans. {{Rotom}} later mused that it had already ruined three pans. This tendency came in handy in ''[[SM117|Drawn with the Wind!]]'', when it, [[Sandy]], and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Shaymin}} found themselves stuck in a cage made by Team Rocket. This was shown again in ''[[SM120|The One That Didn't Get Away!]]'', when it ate the metal on a {{OBP|hunter|SM120}}'s ship to help free a {{p|Kyogre}}. Because of its liquid body, Meltan cannot move very fast | Like many of its species, Meltan consumes anything made of metal, as seen in ''[[SM112|Got Meltan?]]'', when [[Professor Burnet]] discovered a frying pan that had been partially eaten.

Because of its liquid body, Meltan cannot move very fast and is often seen chasing after friends or other things that draw its curiosity or riding on Rowlet. Meltan's slow movement prevents it from dodging well, causing it to rely on moves like {{m|Harden}} to endure enemy attacks. | ||
Inside and outside of battle, Meltan has a tendency to act on its own 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}}, Meltan followed up an unsuccessful {{m|Headbutt}} with an unprompted {{m|Flash Cannon}}, surprising Ash. In [[SM130]], Meltan was shown 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 revealed to enjoy stretching after coming out of its {{i|Poké Ball}}. | Inside and outside of battle, Meltan has a tendency to act on its own without any input from its Trainer.
