The Metal Racket's Fever Shot is called the Metal Boost. It transforms the player into their Metal form for 8 seconds, fully covering them in a gray metallic material. While in this form, the player is invincible to other obstacles in the court, and receive a boost to their shot strength. While invincible, the player is immune to most other Fever Racket effects on the court. If the player is shrunken from a Mini Mushroom, they grow back to normal size. As of version 1.1.0, the player is also slowed down while under the effects of the Metal Boost.[1]

While invincible, the player can walk over mud or ice without losing speed or traction. Pokeys fall over if touched, and obstacles such as Pokey segments, Bananas and Amps disappear. However, tornados don't disappear if touched. As of version 1.0.2, the Metal Boost can also defeat Spinies,[2] and as of version 1.1.0, Mini Mushrooms as well.[1] The invincibility does not prevent the player's screen from being obscured by ink from an Inky Shot or from being pushed back by a Shova Boost's shot.

When activated, the Fever Shot is also a powerful shot which damages players around the area where the ball bounces.
