* Magneton, along with its pre-evolution {{p|Magnemite}}, were pure Electric-type Pokémon in Generation I, but became dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} in Generation II. This makes them the first Pokémon to ever change typing, and the only ones to do so until Generation V when {{p|Rotom}}'s formes were given additional typing.

* Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is contradictory evidence seen in various forms of media.

** In the only anime episode to date showing a Magnemite evolution, ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', when {{an|Ethan}}'s Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it "creates" two Magnemite during evolution, instead of combining with two real Magnemite. Similarly, in the main series games, when Magnemite reaches level 30, it evolves without the aid of two additional Magnemite. This is unlike {{p|Mantyke}} which requires a {{p|Remoraid}} to evolve.

** In {{g|Snap}}, a Magneton ''is'' clearly shown to be created by three Magnemite. Also, when two Magnemite get stuck together halfway through evolution in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|original Mystery Dungeon games]], they mention how three Magnemite must come together to evolve.

** After evolution, Magneton becomes exactly ten times heavier than it was as Magnemite. Logically, it would be three times heavier if it were actually made of three Magnemite. Magnemite weighs 6.0 kg, or 13.23 lbs, while Magneton weighs 60.0 kg, or 132.3 lbs.
