Yes, this is based off the drawing of the P'Oed Onix in a tube top. I thought it would be funny to write a multiple part poem with different forms (I'll try haiku next) telling how that Onix got into the tube top.

Tube Top Onix--The Beginning​

There once was a galumphing Onix
Whose humming had great harmonics
He was happy burrowing in Mount Coronet
Of which he called ‘Corny’ as a sobriquet.

Now, this day began as any other
The grey granite streaked Pokemon plucked
A plump, purple berry off the floor of a cave
“Delicious!” he exclaimed, his voice echoing.

Now, outside the cave there was a trainer
Believe me, he was a drainer.
Irritating, irascible, and irate
This trainer was of whom many wanted to eviscerate!

He was looking to fill his team, this Tom.
With only four Pokeballs on his belt, he felt worthless.
Angry and disappointed, he cried,
“I shall go into Coronet, and no one shall chide!”

Soon the Onix and Tom should meet
In a battle in which one would defeat
the other. However, Tom had in his hand
a strange red sphere.

“Use False Swipe!” Tom commanded.
His Scyther followed, giving the Onix a heavy strike.
“GO! POKEBALL!” he screeched unneededly.
The red sphere was heaved, and…

Inside the strange sphere, after the strange light, there was a strange cave
Like his own, but…cleaner.
Onix panicked and struck, shook and trembled, feeling the thing move.
CLICK!

He was trapped. Onix was stuck in the oddly clean cave.
Then, a sensation of flying and redness overcame
He was back in his home!
Oh hooray!

“Hello, new Onix.” A strange human said.
“Come with me know, you’ll get fed.
Well, as long as you fight for me, or you’re dead!”
With that last sentence he laughed, but Onix wasn’t worried.

“Oh, yes, you need a name.”
The male human pondered, a quite unintelligent view
“It needs to be clean, classy, and good for a dame,
Oh, yes, I’ll call you…”


Oooh, a cliffhanger! This is where you come in. I'm going to set up a poll for you to vote on three silly names. The one that gets the most wins. The poll closes the twelfth.
 
I'd call him Rock, because A.) it's hilarious in it's simplicity and B.) it would just be interesting to see the reaction. :p
 
Neverlance said:
Anyone who doesn't choose Rock is inferior.

Oh please, don't be so arrogant. :p

I chose Tini because of how contradictory it was to the Onix's size and how failworthy that name is.
