It first appeared as a {{p|Beldum}} in ''[[AG118|Less is Morrison]]''. In that episode, Morrison and {{Ash}} competed in several competitions to see who was better, and they even had a Pokémon battle using his {{p|Beldum}} against [[Ash's Pikachu]].
Metang first appeared as a {{p|Beldum}} in ''[[AG118|Less is Morrison]]'' where it went up against [[Ash's Pikachu]] in a battle. Even though Beldum can only use {{m|Take Down}}, the battle ended in a draw for both Pokémon. Later, Beldum was caught by {{TRT}} along with Pikachu. Both {{Ash}} and Morrison used their Take Down techniques to break out of the cage Team Rocket put them in. They used the same techniques to rescue Beldum and Pikachu. Beldum defeats Team Rocket with a Take Down along with Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}}.


Beldum's only disadvantage was that it only knew {{m|Take Down}}. This almost caused Morrison to lose to {{an|Jump|a Trainer}} with an {{p|Electabuzz}} during the qualifying rounds of the [[Ever Grande Conference]] in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]''. When it looked like Morrison was going to lose, his Beldum evolved into a {{p|Metang}} and won the battle with its newly learned {{type2|Psychic}} moves.
Beldum reappears in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum!]]'' where it was sent out along with the rest of Morrison's team. During the preliminaries, it went up against {{an|Jump|a trainer}}'s {{p|Electabuzz}}. Beldum's major disadvantage was that it could only use Take Down, which was proven to be very tough for Morrison as Electabuzz kept blocking the attack with {{m|Protect}} and counterattacking with {{m|ThunderPunch}}. Just when Morrison was about to be eliminated from the [[Hoenn League]], Beldum [[Evolution|evolves]] into a Metang and uses {{m|Confusion}} to stop Electabuzz's ThunderPunch from making contact with it. Metang then finishes off Electabuzz with a Take Down, taking out the Thunderbolt Pokémon.


Morrison also used his Metang in his battle against Ash. It put up a good fight against his {{AP|Glalie}}, but it was defeated. It has not been seen since.
During the league when Morrison wasn't battling, he would train Metang for their upcoming battles.
 
In ''[[AG129|A Judgment Brawl]]'' after Ash defeated [[Katie]], Metang defeats an unnamed trainer's {{p|Machoke}}. When Morrison found out that he was paired up with Ash to battle each other in the second round, he trained his Metang by having it attack the tree. Morrison stops it in the last second when he saw Ash as the tree. In the [[AG130|next episode]], it went up against {{AP|Glalie}} during Morrison's battle against Ash after both sides lost five of their Pokémon. Metang had some battle tactics such as stopping Glalie's {{m|Ice Beam}} with Confusion and redirecting it back. After a long battle, Metang was defeated by Glalie's spinning {{m|Headbutt}}.
