The basic version of Metal Energy was first introduced during the Diamond & Pearl Series of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. As {{t|Steel}} Pokémon were becoming more prevalent during [[Generation IV]], Metal Energy was designed to complement (and later replace during [[Generation V]]'s Black & White Series) the {{TCG|Special Energy card|Special Energy}} version {{special|Metal Energy|of the same name}}, which was restricted to only four copies of the card per deck. As such, this basic Metal Energy has received many different prints and releases in order to circulate more copies into the general public. | The basic version of Metal Energy was first introduced during the Diamond & Pearl Series of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].

Metal Energy was included in the first expansion of each Series since its introduction in the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} expansion. While the Diamond & Pearl print featured the plain style, the {{TCG|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} expansion featured an exclusive Steelix design originating from the equivalent Japanese expansion. A Mirror Reverse Holofoil print of this was included in the {{TCG|Call of Legends}} expansion. {{TCG|Black & White}} featured a Checkerboard design (originating from the Japanese {{TCG|Cobalion Strength Deck}}), with the main expansion prints returning to plain for the release of {{TCG|XY}}. | Metal Energy was included in the first expansion of each Series since its introduction in the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} expansion.
