Metal Bat in One - Punch Man (OPM) fanfiction often has his character explored in various ways. Some fanfictions might focus on his backstory, like his relationship with his sister. In fan - made stories, he could be depicted in new battles, showing off his strength and his unwavering determination even more intensely than in the original manga or anime.
One possible fanfiction could be about the Metal Bat facing an extremely powerful and unknown monster in the One Punch Man universe. He could struggle in the fight at first, using his bat with all his might. But as the battle progresses, he discovers a new level of strength within himself, inspired by the other heroes he has seen in action.
Another common portrayal is his relationship with other heroes being explored more deeply. For example, his interactions with Saitama.

And his role within the Hero Association can also be re - imagined, like being in charge of a special task force.
Sure. In OPM fanfiction, a Metal Bat Dragon OC could be really cool. For example, it could have the strength of Metal Bat combined with the mystery and power of a dragon.

Writers often come up with such interesting concepts to make their stories stand out.
