However, both of these methods also have requirements that players will have to complete to get the Metal Coat.
Obtain Metal Coat from Delibird Presents Shop in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
The easy way to get the Metal Coat is through Delibird Presents Shop because players can buy it for 3,000 Poke Dollars. Metal Coat will be available at the Delibird Presents Shops after players have obtained Three Gym Badges. Gym Badges are obtained by defeating the Gym Leaders of different Towns and Cities of Paldea.
Players can obtain any three Gym Badges to unlock the Metal Coat in the Delibird Presents Shops. If you are having a difficult time defeating the Gym Leaders, then we suggest the following order to obtain the Gym Badges.

- Artazon Gym (Grass Badge)
Once you have obtained the Gym Badges, go to any Delibird Presents Shop in Levincia and you will be able to buy Metal Coat for 3,000 Poke Dollars under the Battle Items section of the shop.
Obtain Metal Coat from the Auction House in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
Auction House has all kinds of items in them for which players can take part in the Auction and place the highest bid to get the item. However, the Auction House is not unlocked from the beginning of the game and players will have to take down the Sky Titan in order to unlock the Auction House at Porto Marinada.
If players want to get Metal Coat before defeating three Gym Leaders, then they have to unlock the Auction House and then wait for the Metal Coat to appear at one of the Auctions. Not only this, but players should also have a high amount of Poke Dollars because Auctions for evolution items can easily cross over 50,000 Poke Dollars.
