Card 070

Onix, the Rock Snake Pokémon, is a colossal creature first introduced in Generation I. It is renowned for its immense size and serpentine form, composed entirely of rock segments. Onix inhabits subterranean environments, carving out vast networks of tunnels deep beneath the earth. Its diet consists primarily of rocks and soil, which it grinds down to strengthen its already formidable body. Onix's behavior is often characterized by its powerful burrowing capabilities, moving at incredible speeds through the ground. It evolves into Steelix when traded holding a Metal Coat. In the games, Onix is a staple of rock-type teams and often appears as an early-game challenge, notably as Brock's signature Pokémon in the anime, establishing its iconic status. Its imposing appearance and connection to the earth contribute to its cultural significance as a symbol of strength and endurance within the Pokémon universe.
