* Beldum, along with its evolved forms, are the only non-legendary Pokémon to have a catch rate of 3, which is the lowest possible. In [[Generation III]], this low catch rate would never take effect, unless the player is [[cheating]] or encountering a {{p|Ditto}} that transforms into Beldum. However, in [[Generation IV]], Beldum can be found as a swarm on {{rt|228}}, making Beldum extremely difficult to capture due to its self-damaging move, {{m|Take Down}} and the everlasting {{m|Sandstorm}}, which hurts all but {{t|Steel}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type2|Ground}}s for 1/16 of their health every turn.
