Meltan is a small Pokémon with a silvery body of liquid metal. Its head resembles a golden {{wp|Nut (hardware)|hexagonal nut}} with small black sphere floating inside. This sphere serves as its eye. It has a red tail that resembles an electrical wire with two tiny protrusions at the end. | Meltan is a small Pokémon with a silvery body of liquid metal.

As seen in the [[SM111|anime]], the hexagonal nut on its body can be removed. It has also been seen working in packs. When provoked, it will spin its heads, creating a sound that calls others of its own kind. This head-spinning can also be used as a sign of affection. The [[SM112|anime]] has also shown Meltan can be tamed if fed metal-like treats. Meltan is one of the smallest Pokémon, tying with Alolan {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Klefki}} as the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] {{type|Steel}}. | |||
