How Do You Evolve an Onix Into a Steelix in the Game Pokemon FireRed?

One memorable moment from the "Pokemon" comic book series comes from when Onix, Brock's Rock-Type Pokemon, loses a battle against another of his kind owned by Jasmine. This initially baffles Brock and the others, but they eventually learn that the other Pokemon was not an Onix but rather a Steelix, Onix's stronger, rarer evolved form. You can follow in Jasmine's footsteps and battle with your very own Steelix by giving your Onix a metal coat and trading him to another Game Boy.

Things You'll Need

Two Game Boy systems
Two "Pokemon FireRed" cartridges

Instructions

- 1
  Place "Pokemon FireRed" cartridges in both Game Boy systems and turn them on.
- 2
  Purchase a Metal Coat from a Pokemon Mart and equip Onix with it.
- 3
  Travel to a Pokemon Center. Remove Onix from the Pokemon Center's PC storage system. Make room in your party if needed by storing another Pokemon in the PC.
- 4
  Place your Game Boy parallel with another to activate the infrared link technology. This allows you to trade Pokemon.
- 5
  Talk to the man behind the counter to begin the trade. Give Onix to the other Game Boy. He will evolve into Steelix as soon as you do so.
