 ==Trivia==
-* With 8.8 mt (measured in length), Onix was the tallest Pokémon ever in the first generation.
-** It has lost this record in the second generation with [[Steelix]], which has 9.2 mt of length: being the the evolution of Onix, the height record continued to belong to their evolution family. However, in third generation both Onix and Steelix were outclassed by [[Wailord]] in height/length, which is 14.5 mt long.
-* Onix had also the second highest [[stat|Defense]] base stat ever in the first generation, being outclassed only by [[Cloyster]].
 * Onix is the only unevolved Pokémon that is used in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] by Trainers beyond the right attendant, being used in all of [[Brock]]'s teams.
 * The Onix line is the only one which can be completely acquired with [[in-game trade]]s. However, this is only possible in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, in which the player can trade {{p|Bellsprout}} for Onix in [[Violet City]], and any Pokémon for Steelix in [[Olivine City]].
 * The [[Lagging Tail]] [[held item]] resembles the end of Onix's tail.
-* Onix is one of the few Pokémon with an exemplar which was stated to have died in the main games: the [[Memorial Pillar]] was the grave of a dead Onyx called Tectonix, as told by its trainer near to it.
