Jasmine's Steelix: Difference between revisions

==In the anime==

{{incomplete|section|Personality and characteristics section}}

Jasmine was first seen with a Steelix in ''[[EP224|Nerves of Steelix!]]'', where it rescued [[Ash's Pikachu]] after he had been kidnapped by {{TRT}}. It easily managed to knock over their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]] after [[Brock's Onix|Brock]] and [[Janina]]'s {{p|Onix}} had failed to do so. It then disabled the mecha with its {{m|Crunch|powerful jaws}}, and once Pikachu was safely back in Ash's possession, sent Team Rocket flying with a powerful {{m|Iron Tail}}. This Steelix was used again later during the second round in her [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against Ash. It was put up against Ash's Pikachu, however the Mouse Pokémon was fatigued from his previous battle against Jasmine's {{p|Magnemite}}. Additionally his {{type|Electric}} moves had no effect on Steelix, a {{type|Ground}}, neither did his {{m|Quick Attack}} do much damage to Steelix's hard body. After a valiant effort, Pikachu was easily defeated by Steelix's Iron Tail.

Ash then sent out his {{AP|Cyndaquil}} to battle against Steelix. Despite being at a type-disadvantage, Steelix managed to defend itself against Cyndaquil's {{m|Flamethrower}} through use of its {{m|Sandstorm}} and then disappeared from the field by {{m|Dig|burrowing}} underground. After resurfacing, its attempts to attack the Fire Mouse Pokémon failed as Cyndaquil easily managed to dodge them all. It then reused its Sandstorm and Dig combination to defend against another Flamethrower. After continuously failing to hit one another, Ash had Cyndaquil use {{m|Smokescreen}} and use Steelix's holes to hide in. Once the smoke had been cleared, Cyndaquil managed to land a direct hit with Flamethrower from its hiding place. Jasmine then had her Steelix use Iron Tail on the ground, causing the tunnels below to cave in, forcing Cyndaquil out of the hole. After hitting Cyndaquil with Iron Tail, it looked like Steelix had won. However, Cyndaquil managed to recover and avoid being knocked out through use of Smokescreen. Steelix then used Sandstorm to defend against Flamethrower, however this tactic inevitably failed in the end as Steelix's Sandstorm was ignited, surrounding Steelix in a tornado of flames, {{DL|Fainting|In the anime|knocking out}} the Iron Snake Pokémon, earning Ash the {{Badge|Mineral}}.

It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]''.

Jasmine's Steelix appeared in ''[[GB17|A Spectacular Battle To Save Ampharos]]''. During the battle between [[Gold's Pikachu]] and {{GnB|Black}}'s {{p|Gyarados}}, Jasmine had it take Gold's place as she couldn't take waiting for Black to get defeated. However, since Gyarados was taken out by Steelix, they could not get to [[Cianwood City]].

Steelix appeared in ''[[PM093|Tyrogue's in Love?!]]''. After {{TP|Red|Tyrogue}} confessed his feelings to Jasmine by giving her flowers, Steelix rose out of the ground as soon as Jasmine was about to accept the gift. As Steelix was after the same thing, both he and Tyrogue fought for her. As a result, {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} gave them some challenges in which they drank some milk, ate some snack balls and gag battled in the end.

However, Jasmine stopped the fighting between Steelix and Tyrogue. She took out a machine to determine who was compatible. As the machine pointed to Tyrogue and then to {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}, Steelix slammed his head onto the machine in frustration.
