Trivia

• Roggenrola is similar to Geodude: Both are Template:Type2, have Sturdy as their ability, evolve at level 25 and reach their final forms when traded.
• Roggenrola shares its Japanese name with a character from The Legend of Zelda series.

Origin

Roggenrola is based on a geode.

Name origin

Roggenrola seems a combination of rock and roll and may be intended to be a play on the music genre of the same name. Dangoro may be a combination of 団子 dango, a Japanese dumpling; and ゴロ goro, meaning grounder. It may also come from ゴロゴロ goro goro, the Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound of a boulder or a rock rolling.
