Strong point: Defense — higher than 62% of species. Its weakest point is Speed — lower than 93% of species. Taken together these numbers say little in its favor: below 86% of the Pokédex. This is not the final form yet — it evolves twice more, so the numbers above describe this stage, not what it will end up as. On defense it has 4 weaknesses, 9 resistances and 1 full immunity. Poison-type moves do nothing to it at all. Very hard to catch — bring plenty of Poké Balls and something that puts it to sleep or paralyzes it.
Base stats
Last column: what percentage of 1084 species and regional forms have a lower value. Weak point: Speed.
A nature can improve this entry further: its boost hits hardest on Defense, the stat in which this species already leads. Which nature does that — see the list of natures.
Which nature to choose
The stats describe a physical wall — it hits weakly on both sides, but its Defense stays high. A nature does not touch HP, so extra bulk can only be added on this side. Evolution does not change it, so pick it for the final form, not for these numbers.
- Impish +Def · −SpA Raises what this species uses to absorb hits, at the cost of Sp. Atk — a stat it does not use anyway.
- Relaxed +Def · −Spe The same defensive gain, paid for with Speed it does not have anyway. Under Trick Room the drop becomes an advantage.
- Hidden Power and Weather Ball still deal damage based on Sp. Atk. If either of them is going into the set, lowering Sp. Atk is no longer free.
A conclusion drawn from base stats alone — a specific moveset can reverse it. All 25 natures.

Pokédex entry
Instead of blood, a powerful magnetic force courses throughout BELDUM’s body. This POKéMON communicates with others by sending controlled pulses of magnetism.

How it was drawn
2002–2019The sprites come straight from the games in which Beldum appeared — one from each release.
Variant gallery
The gallery shows only the appearance variants that exist for this Pokémon. Every image shows the same character and differs in source — a Pokémon HOME render or a pixel sprite — and in coloring, regular or shiny.
TCG cards (19)
All Beldum cards →Beldum has 19 cards in 15 sets. The oldest of them are shown below.
Breeding
All Egg Groups →This species is genderless, so its only possible partner is Ditto.
The Egg hatches after 40 cycles, which is roughly 10,500 steps. The exact cycle length depends on the game — newer titles shortened it noticeably — so treat this number as an order of magnitude, not a countdown. Having the Flame Body Ability in your party halves the wait.
