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

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

In Alola, Geodude has a regional variant that is Rock/Electric. It evolves into Alolan Graveler starting at level 25, which evolves into Alolan Golem when traded.

Biology

Geodude is a gray boulder Pokémon. It has bulging, rocky eyebrows and trapezoidal, brown eyes. Its arms are muscular with five-fingered hands. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths. Geodude is proud of its sturdy body and will bash against others of its kind in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. The longer it lives, the more chipped and worn its body becomes.

Geodude can be most often found on mountain trails and fields. It will sit still in these areas, which is why it is often mistaken for a rock. It is often stepped on, and will sometimes swing its arms in anger when this occurs. 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.

The Geodude of the Alola region are made from a magnetic rock which grants them the Electric-type. There are areas on the Alolan Geodude's body that are especially magnetic and attracts iron sand, creating the appearance of black eyebrows and strands of short black hair. Only the thumb and index fingers on the Geodude's hands are free while the other fingers have fused together.

Trivia

  • No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Alolan Geodude and its Alolan evolutionary relatives.
  • Alolan Geodude, along with its Alolan evolutionary relatives, were designed by Hitoshi Ariga.
  • Alolan Geodude has the lowest base Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed stats of all Electric-type Pokémon.
  • In the Japanese game Pokémon Blue, Geodude weighs 2.0 kg instead of 20.0 kg (as it does in all other games). This has no mechanical significance, as no game mechanics use weight in the handheld Generation I games.
  • Alolan Geodude's evolutionary line is the only three-stage evolutionary line in which all members have an Alola Form.

Origin

Geodude is based upon a living rock or boulder.

Name origin

Geodude may be a combination of the prefix geo-, from γῆ gē, Greek for 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).
