>>50278506I'm sorry but keeping a Metagross is a lot harder than you think. Yeah yeah it's cool and strong and everyone will want to see it and envy you. But it's crazy rare so if you'd compare it with a car, it's the lamborghini of pokemon. To even get one you'd have to go to Hawaii and be around for mereor showers there, or buy it on the black market for a fortune. And then there is always the risk of it getting stolen because of its financial worth.
It's a large and very heavy mon so most of your furniture will have to go so you can have it in your house. It also feeds on iron and metal, so you will have to go up a mountain with it at least every second day. A lot more maintenance than a car. It eats cars, by the way. Have fun paying the damage after it got hungry and ate your neighbour's car.
It's also a very dangerous mon. If you let it out its pokeball you always have full responsibility for it not hurting others, be it on accident or out of boredom.
Every spring you need to take it up the snow mountain for several weeks for it to give birth to a bunch of beldums. Trust me that is not a delicious sight to watch.
Cuddling with it is difficult because its surface is really cold and unwelcoming, but unlike a car, it wants and needs to be cuddeled. Don't touch the claws. Trainers died trying so.
Trouble is that communicating with it is very difficult as it does not have clear facial expressions conveying its needs, so you might end up neglecting it without realizing. If your metagross isn't happy with your maintenance, it will not demand attention from you. With its 4 brains it will judge whether you are redundant for its wellbeing or not. If you ARE in fact redundant, it will remain distant and one day crush you in your sleep.
