About Steelix
Steelix is a Steel / Ground-type Pokémon, the Iron Snake Pokémon (No. 208), introduced in Generation II and native to the Johto region.
This Pokémon evolved through use of a strange item. Its body is coated with steel powder and notably hard—not even diamond can leave so much as a scratch.
