# Method Repeatable?
1 Trick House Reward – After completing Puzzle 5 in the Trick House located on Route 110 No

There is only one Magnet obtainable in ORAS, and you’ll get it as a reward from the Trick Master after completing his fifth challenge. To complete this challenge you’ll need to answer a series of questions correctly in order, and the questions are randomized each time.

We have a complete guide to all Trick House puzzles, so you can follow that tutorial to complete all of the puzzles through to the 5th puzzle to get your Magnet.

Uses

When held by a Pokémon, the Magnet boosts the power of the holder’s Electric-type moves by 20%. This effect also stacks with STAB, or Same-Type Attack Bonus, so it is most useful when held by Electric-type Pokémon to maximize their damage.

In Gen II and III, the Magnet only gave a 10% power boost. But for the Gen VI games you’ll get the 20% power boost.

Fun Fact: In FRLG, it is possible to obtain multiple Magnets repeatedly as held items from wild Magneton. No other gens allowed you to acquire multiple Magnets until Gen VII.
