Description: A massive snake made of living Rocks, Onix is the tallest Rock type Pokémon and in the top ten for tallest Pokémon over all (not counting Gigantimax Pokémon.) It's large, black eyes are the only external part that isn't comprised of Rocks. On top of its head, it has a sharp spike that is gradually worn down over the course of its life until it is eventually as hard as diamonds. Internally, Onix's brain is made of a magnet that helps the Pokémon navigate even when it cannot see. This is especially useful as Onix tend to live underground where they can burrow up to 50 miles per hour.

Onix burrowing beneath the ground causes tremors that can be heard and felt from very far off. They are capable of absorbing rocks and other object in their way, growing harder and harder the more they burrow. Onix also eat rocks as they travel beneath the ground. The tunnels they leave behind serve as homes for Diglett and other Pokémon. When not tunnelling, Onix can be found in caves and mountains.
