The player may start dealing normal damage to metal slimes as they near the Level 30 cap. Due to the fact that true spell immunity does not exist in the original {{NES}} version of {{I}}, [[Sizz]] and [[Sizzle]] have a higher chance (1/16) to slay the slimes than [[Critical Hit]]s (1/64). | ||

Metal slimes may first appear on [[Celeste Isle]], where the [[hunter mech]]s hint to their residence on the island. They can also show up on [[Fert Isle]]. However, "yellow-bellies" will not appear on the overworld in any of these instances. The Metal Menagerie on [[Palaish Isle]] is the only place where metal slimes can be seen before engaging in a battle, though this area cannot be accessed until after the player solidifies his or her position in the finals of the tournament. | Metal slimes may first appear on [[Celeste Isle]], where the [[hunter mech]]s hint to their residence on the island.

In the early parts of the game, a [[Critical Hit]] during the scouting process is one of the most reliable ways to scout one, though a great deal of luck is still needed. | ||
