Yes, no?


Careful nature
Attack is its highest IV
Rock Head

This is the best one out of, like, 10 captures.

Why Onix?

Does your team need a rock type?

My "team" right now is a Piplup and a Shinx. Onix is just cool man.

Careful is nice to patch up its awful SpDef, and Rock is such a good attacking type that an Attack boosting nature isn't necessary.

Train it, dude.

Onix has like 40 attack which is pathetic. Might as well get Geodude instead.

Or wait till Iron Islands to catch wild Steelix.

I remember playing I think it was Silver or Gold - it was the first one you could evolve onix to steelix.

I called him Steely Dan. Not after the band.

Just to note. This is just a casual playthrough to prepare for Brilliant Diamond in 4 months. I dont know why I even made this topic you can sweep the game with a Magikarp if you level it high enough. I guess Careful is just the best nature to survive the Gyms Onix is weak against (which is half of them.)

Onix might have the most flawed stat spread in all of Pokemon tbh.

Godawful in randomizers too, you're probably gonna wind up with a Aerodactyl if you even manage to find a metal coat.

I wouldn't say it's flawed. It's designed to be the first big roadblock you encounter. It served that purpose well in gen 1.

You're not wrong....but..

The 35 HP stat and the 70 speed stat honestly make me irrationally angry. Compared to something similar like Sandslash where they were trying to make a slightly faster ground type but it has a cool and functional stat spread.

I wouldn't hate it as much if it didn't always find it's way onto my randomizer teams.
