maybe a Dry Skin variant? though an Onix being fucked up by being in the sun would be a little stupid too. i think if one's going to try and do C-Onix they ought to play towards Onix's innate strengths, namely its speed and not just aim to make it a shittier Steelix or Carbink.

>>36021762this is an interesting spin on the idea but its ability would definitely need to adjust its weaknesses.
