FireRed | It is enclosed in a hard shell that is as rugged as slabs of rock. It sheds skin once a year to grow larger. |
LeafGreen | Its boulder-like body is extremely hard. It can easily withstand dynamite blasts without taking damage. |

Sun | Its body can survive dynamite blasts without a single scratch, but it hates rain and humidity. |
Moon | Once a year, this Pokémon molts, and its shed shell returns to the soil. This process creates enriched soil, so farmers collect the shells. |

Alolan Golem
Sun | It fires rocks charged with electricity. Even if the rock isn’t fired that accurately, just grazing an opponent will cause numbness and fainting. |
---|---|
Moon | Because it can’t fire boulders at a rapid pace, it’s been known to seize nearby Geodude and fire them from its back. |
Ultra Sun | It’s grumpy and stubborn. If you upset it, it discharges electricity from the surface of its body and growls with a voice like thunder. |
Ultra Moon | It shoots large rocks that are charged with electricity. Tremendous electric shocks are flung out across the whole area of impact. |
Let's Go Pikachu Let's Go Eevee |
It uses magnetism to accelerate and fire off rocks tinged with electricity. Even if it doesn’t score a direct hit, the jolt of electricity will do the job. |
