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.

Met is the first version of the enemy. It appeared first in Mega Man 1 and returned for Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, Mega Man: The Wily Wars, and Mega Man Powered Up.

This version of the enemy is stationary, since it has no legs. If the player character approaches to it by four tiles long or less, Met will expose its face and shoot three projectiles; one that goes straight and two that go diagonal in opposing directions. Unlike most projectiles, Met's bullets deal more damage than contact damage.

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.

Fire Met is a variant with a flame in its head. Unlike other versions of the Met, it never hides under a helmet. This enemy constantly walks in a direction and flips if it collides with a wall. If the Fire Met is at the edge of terrain, it will jump out of it and try resuming its direction. Its initial direction can be set in the Level Builder.

Fire Met can come out of a Fire Met Spawner, which is solid and can be temporarily stunned with electricity. The direction the Mets go after falling from it can be set in the Level Builder.
