To everyone in this thread who doesn't have a Meltan because they don't play Go or think they missed their chance, it's actually super easy to get one; unlike most pokemon in Go they aren't random spawns or event exclusive, they're available pretty much whenever you want and you don't need Let's Go to transfer it.

You should already have Melmetal from that Gmax Home mystery gift but if you want one, you'll have to repeat this process of catching Meltan in 3 days time when the box resets until you have 400 meltan candy (you get 3 for each catch and 1 for each one you transfer/release, so you should have enough after 2 or 3 catching sessions), then you can evolve one of your meltans before transferring it into Home
