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 next day, Melmetal was the first Pokémon Ash sent out during his battle against {{an|Gladion}}, facing off against {{TP|Gladion|Silvally}}. Melmetal managed to deal heavy [[damage]] on Silvally with its newfound power, but nevertheless, it was still defeated by a {{type|Fighting}} {{m|Multi-Attack}}. | ||

Like many of its species, Melmetal 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 Melmetal's favorite food. In the [[Poké Problem]] segment for [[SM115]], Melmetal 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, Melmetal cannot move very fast and is often seen chasing after friends or other things that draw its curiosity or riding on Rowlet. Melmetal's slow movement prevents it from dodging well, causing it to rely on moves like {{m|Harden}} to endure enemy attacks. | Like many of its species, Melmetal consumes anything made of metal, as seen in ''[[SM112|Got Meltan?]]'', when [[Professor Burnet]] discovered a frying pan that had been partially eaten.

Inside and outside of battle, Melmetal 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}}, Melmetal followed up an unsuccessful {{m|Headbutt}} with an unprompted {{m|Flash Cannon}}, surprising Ash.

Later, while battling Ryuki's {{p|Druddigon}}, Melmetal followed up an unsuccessful {{m|Headbutt}} with an unprompted {{m|Flash Cannon}}, surprising Ash. In [[SM130]], 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 still retained its tendency to act on its own accord, and will cry if hit by a painful attack. | ||
