Golett (Japanese : ゴビット Gobit ) is a dual-type Ground /Ghost Pokémon introduced in Generation V .
It evolves into Golurk starting at level 43.
Biology
Golett is an artificial Pokémon that resembles a small, bipedal automaton . Its body is made of a mixture of teal and blue clay, resulting in a rugged, lumpy appearance. Its head features two rectangular eyes, with the left one having the shape of an inverted "L", and a stubby, cyan, crest-like structure on top. Its arms are articulated and end in three-fingered hands, while its legs are much more crude and short. Two brown bands crisscross around its torso, resembling bandoliers , and meet at a blue rhombus right in the center of its chest, which features a geometric swirl. Its eyes, the swirl on its chest, and the inside of its body, visible by large gaps near its limbs, emit a pale yellow glow
Golett were molded from clay and brought to life thousands of years ago through ancient science, with the purpose of serving their makers as laborers for heavy-duty work. It runs on a mysterious, unidentified energy ever since the moment it was born, but this energy is speculated to run out soon. For unclear reasons, Golett have been reported to continually line up boulders.

Trivia
Concept and development
Golett and its evolved form were designed by James Turner .[ 1] [ 2]
Origin
Golett draws inspiration from golems ,[ 2] and perhaps also the Haniwa , funerary objects made from terracotta clay that are specific to the Japanese anthropological record. It may also be based on a cannonball as it can tuck its limbs into spherical body and its evolved form transforms into a cannon.
Golett and Golurk's presence in Unova, being based on creatures from Jewish folklore, may also be inspired by the fact that New York City has the highest Jewish population of any city in the world.
Name origin
Golett may be a combination of golem and the diminutive suffix -let .
Gobit may be a combination of golem and bit (small in size) or 小人 kobito (small person).
