Steelix is a Steel/Ground-type Pokémon (National Dex #208) with a middling stat total of 510. You can have one built for Legends: Z-A, Sword & Shield, BDSP and Legends: Arceus, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Defense at 200, which makes it a defensive wall. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Steelix takes super-effective damage from Fire, Water, Fighting, Ground. It is completely immune to Electric, Poison. It resists Normal, Flying, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Dragon, Steel, Fairy. Its ability options are Rock Head, Sturdy, Sheer Force, and you choose which one your copy carries.

Steelix evolves into Onix. You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.

In-game, Steelix has 79 recorded encounter locations across Legends: Z-A (11), Sword & Shield (13), BDSP (47), Legends: Arceus (8) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Legends: Z-A, Sword & Shield, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Steelix ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
