Geodude (Japanese: イシツブテ Isitsubute) is a dual-type Rock/Ground Pokémon.

It evolves into Graveler starting at level 25, which evolves into Golem when traded.

Biology

Physiology

Geodude is a gray boulder with bulging, rocky eyebrows, trapezoidal eyes with brown irises, and muscular five-fingered arms.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Throwing rocks is a common type of offense used by Geodude. As Geodude is also a Ground type, it can use moves like Earthquake. Geodude also possesses the ability to explode. It has the ability to levitate, although is not unaffected from attacks from the ground.

Behavior

Geodude usually sit still on mountain paths or in caves, which is why they are often mistaken for rocks. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths, hoisting itself over. Geodude also uses its arms to swing its fists around when angered, such as when it is stepped upon carelessly. Geodude are proud of their sturdy bodies and bash against each other in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Once buried, it will not awaken even if someone steps on it. In the morning, Geodude rolls downhill in search of food.

Habitat

Geodude can be most often found on mountain trails, fields, under rocks, or in caves. They are a common sight in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh.

Pokédex entries

This Pokémon was unavailable prior to Generation I.
Generation I
Red Found in fields and mountains. Mistaking them for boulders, people often step or trip on them.
Blue
Yellow Commonly found near mountain trails, etc. If you step on one by accident, it gets angry.
Stadium When traveling uphill, if it encounters a raised step, it cleverly hoists itself up and over using its two arms.
Generation II
Gold Most people may not notice, but a closer look should reveal that there are many Geodude around.

Ruby The longer a Geodude lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this Pokémon's heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always.
Sapphire When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. It will not awaken even if hikers step on it unwittingly. In the morning, this Pokémon rolls downhill in search of food.

Trivia

Origin

Geodude may be based on the "pet rock". However, Geodude may be intended to be nothing more than a living boulder.

Name origin

Geodude may be a combination of the prefix geo (earth) and dude (a slang word for a male). It may also be from geode (a usually hollow volcanic rock with crystal inside) and dude.

Isitsubute is a combination of 石 ishi (stone) and 礫 tsubute (throwing stones), literally meaning "a stone throwing stones."
