Order Melmetal — free

Melmetal is a Steel-type Pokémon (National Dex #809) with a pseudo-legendary-tier stat total of 600. You can have one built for Legends: Z-A, Sword & Shield and Let's Go, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 143, which makes it a slow but heavy-hitting attacker. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Melmetal takes super-effective damage from Fire, Fighting, Ground. It is completely immune to Poison. It resists Normal, Grass, Ice, Flying, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Dragon, Steel, Fairy. Its ability options are Iron Fist.

In-game, Melmetal has 9 recorded encounter locations across Legends: Z-A (1), Sword & Shield (4), Let's Go (4) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Legends: Z-A, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Melmetal ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
