Effect
Powers up Steeltype moves. (Hold)
Metal Coat boosts Steel-type moves by 20% when held, which don't get me wrong is nice... but the more important use is evolving Scyther into Scizor or Onix into Steelix when they are leveled up while holding it.
If you're looking for one, wild Magnemite have a chance to be holding Metal Coat. It's one of those items where you might farm for a while before one shows up, but it's worth it if you want Scizor or Steelix on your team.
