In-Depth Analysis
Onix totals 385 across its base stats, profiling as a balanced Pokémon with a flexible stat spread. Lean on its Defense (160) when planning sets, and cover for its weaker Special Attack (30).
Defensively, the Rock, Ground combination gives Onix 5 resistances, 1 immunity, and 6 weaknesses to plan around. Watch out for Water, Grass moves in particular — they land for 4× damage. Offensively it pressures 8 types with super-effective STAB coverage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Onix a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Medium experience curve. Defeating it grants Defense +1 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
