Effect

Held item

In battle

Generations II and III

Increases the power of Steel-type moves used by the holder by 10%.

Generation IV onward

Increases the power of Steel-type moves used by the holder by 20%.

Outside battles

Causes Onix to evolve into Steelix and Scyther to evolve into Scizor when traded while holding it, which consumes the Metal Coat. They will not evolve if linking to a Generation I game. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, due to the absence of held items, the Metal Coat simply needs to be used on Onix or Scyther to trigger the Evolution, though the item is still consumed.
