#095 Baby - Onix’s rock-like eggs are so large and hard that they are often confused for regular boulders, making it dangerous for Trainers to sit on round rocks when they’re in mountainous Onix territory. Onix younglings break through their egg with their thick horn, which crumbles away as they age and tunnel through hard bedrock, leaving behind the hardened inner core. Unable to open their eyes after hatching, the blind young Onix navigate their surroundings by using their internal magnet. They feed on the remains of rocks destroyed by their parents, gaining mass overtime as the minerals are absorbed into their body, hardening their tough exterior. Wild Onix younglings don’t leave their parents until they reach their mature size and can withstand high underground pressures.
#095.5 - Onix are excellent burrowers, capable of moving through dense earth and rock at a speed of 50 mph - all the while feeding on large boulders. A magnent-like organ in their brain acts as a compass, so that this Pokemon never loses direction while tunneling. An Onix must live for a very long time in order to evolve naturally into a Steelix. As they age, they venture further and further into the Earth’s crust, and the pressure and heat, along with the dense minerals they eat down there – iron especially – slowly compress and harden their long serpentine body until it is harder than diamonds.

#208 Mega - Steelix are known to dwell in extreme subterranean depths, where intense heat and pressure slowly refine their iron-hard bodies. When a strong bond is formed with their trainer and they are exposed to a Key Stone and Steelixite, these Pokémon begin to channel that geological force transforming into Mega Steelix. The cells within Steelix’s body begin to crystallize, becoming stronger than any mineral and able to withstand any temperature. These crystalline structures hint at the magnetic resonance and subterranean pressure that will fully awaken in its Mega form; shed metallic scraps will to hover around their body in response. Steelix’s defensive capabilities grow even more formidable, and the latent power of Sand Force begins to activate in earnest, increasing its Ground- and Steel-type move potency in sandy environments.
(Pebblix [peh·bliks] and Orex [or·eks] are derived from “pebble” and “ore” and maintain the “-x” suffix.) - - - - - - - - - -
