Met
Metalls (or Mets being their nickname, and Helmet being their name in Mega Man for Game Gear) are one of the most common types of enemies represented in Mega Man Maker. Most forms of Met rely on staying protected from all non-piercing weapons, occasionally making themselves vulnerable to attack, but suffer from low damage output and a lack of health. There are multiple variants of Met are included in Mega Man Maker to use.

The Met is the first version of the enemy. It first appeared in Mega Man 1.
This version of the enemy is stationary, as it has no legs. If the player character is four tiles near or less, the Met will expose its face and shoot three projectiles; one that goes straight and two that go diagonal in opposing directions. Unlike most projectiles, the Met's bullets deal more damage than contact damage.

The Train Met is a Met variant that originates from Mega Man 5. It rides a small train slowly and can deflect most weapon shots. Once it gets within five tiles of the player, it shoots three projectiles like most of the other Mets and goes at a faster speed, also becoming vulnerable in the process. After bumping into walls six times, it will automatically explode.
