#3 Onix - Southern Islands (si1)

Onix is a Pokémon card featuring the Fighting type with 90 HP. It has a retreat cost of three Colorless energy and no resistances, making it vulnerable to Grass-type attacks with a ×2 weakness. The card includes two attacks: Slam, which costs two Colorless energy and deals 20× damage based on coin flips, and Body Slam, requiring four Fighting energy to deal 40 damage and potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon. Artist Keiko Fukuyama designed the card, which is part of the Southern Islands set released in July 2001. The flavor text describes Onix burrowing through the earth to search for food, using its tunnels as nests. Its theme color is a warm golden hue, matching the series’ aesthetic. The card’s simplicity in design and straightforward mechanics align with its role in the game’s early expansion.
