Metal is an element in Ninjago. It was first prior to the Tournament of Elements by Karlof. It's generally associated with the color silver and corresponds with the Elemental Metal Dragon.

Users' abilities

• Ferrokinesis/Metallokinesis: The user can create, shape, manipulate, and generate metal, which can be malleable, fusible, and ductile.
• Metal Mimicry - The user is able to turn themselves entirely into metal.
  • Enhanced Strength - When the user is turned into metal, his or her strength is increased.
  • Enhanced Durability - This augments the user's durability, increasing their resistance to attacks and other elemental powers.
  • Deflection - When the user is turned into metal, they are capable of deflecting attacks, normally projectiles or blunt force, away from themselves, as shown when Chen deflected Lloyd's green Energy balls in "The Forgotten Element."
  • Size Enhancement - When the user is turned into metal, they slightly grow in size.
