Trivia

 * Normally, evolved stages of Pokémon cannot be shiny in encounter screen, but after its Mega Evolution release, could.
 * Originally Mega Energy for Steelix was going to be included during January 2022 Research Breakthrough but an unforeseen issue prevented this happening. Therefore it was given in Timed Research instead.
 * Before the release of Mega Levels, could Mega Evolve into Mega  initially after being given 200 Mega Energy, and 40 afterwards.
