Trivia

• Graveler has two pairs of arms, which was for some reason not visible in its Pokémon Red and Green sprite; likewise, its legs are not visible in its Blue sprite. This led to some confusion as to whether Graveler floats like Geodude or if it walks like Golem. The anime shows Graveler with feet, while Pokémon Special shows it floating. Also, its second pair of arms are a little smaller than the first pair and don't seem to be used as they are usually seen on its chest.
• Graveler is one of the three Pokémon having a total of four arms, the others being Machamp and Ledian.
• In the games with color, Graveler's body color has changed each generation, with it being dark gray in Generation II, light brown in Generation III, and light gray in Generation IV.

Origin

Graveler doesn't share much in common with anything but boulders.

Name origin

Graveler's name is possibly derived from gravel. It could also be a corruption of groveler, someone who bows at the feet of a superior. Its Japanese name may be a combination of golem and stone. Additionally, ゴロゴローン gorogoroon is the sound of rolling, a pastime of Graveler.

In other languages

• German: Georok - A corrupted combination of geo and rock.
• French: Gravalanch - A corrupted combination of gravel and avalanche.
• Korean: 데구리 Deguri
• Chinese (Taiwan): 陆隆石
• Chinese (Hong Kong): 滾動石 - Literally "rolling stone/rock/boulder".
