'''Onix Is On!''' (Japanese: '''VS イワーク''' ''VS {{tt|Iwark|Onix}}'') is the fifth round of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

{{adv|Red}} runs to the [[Pewter Gym]]'s main arena to see a familiar face, {{adv|Blue}}. He and his {{TP|Blue|Charmeleon}} are battling in the ring. After watching the battle, Red registers, and prepares for his first battle against a muscular Trainer and his {{p|Graveler}}. [[Pika]] stubbornly refuses to battle for Red, as a result, he is forced to send out [[Poli]] to battle his opponent. The muscular Trainer predicts an easy win due to Poli's lack of health. However, Red comes up with a strategy to take out his opponent, using one-hit knockouts and complimentary moves. He uses {{m|Water Gun}} on the Graveler, then follows up with {{m|Ice Beam}}, freezing and shattering the opponent's Pokémon.

Using this strategy, Red battles several more Trainers using only Poli and [[Saur]], and they are soon facing the [[Gym Leader]], [[Brock]]. When the last battle begins, Saur and Poli are too exhausted to continue and Pika still refuses to fight. Brock orders his {{TP|Brock|Onix}} to use {{m|Rock Throw}} on Pika, who dodges every rock except one, infuriating him and causing him to attack Red. Believing Red's wins have been nothing but dumb luck, Brock angrily orders {{p|Onix}} to use his most powerful move, {{m|Skull Bash}}. The rock snake forms a twister before launching himself towards Pika. Diving, Red rescues him just in time. It leaves Pika with a wonderful feeling of being loved and has flashbacks of when Red asked him to be friends. Suddenly, he launches a huge electric attack at Onix, which destroys him, earning Red a victory. Admiring his new {{Badge|Boulder}}, Red tries to befriend Pika, but just as before, he pulls a dirty trick on him by shocking him.
