![]() ![]() In the morning, this Pokémon rolls downhill in search of food. It will not awaken even if hikers step on it unwittingly. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Fair enough, lots real animals will test their strength against one another for dominance. So Geodudes will just do sweet chest bumps to pass the time and prove who is stronger. Proud of their sturdy bodies, they bash against each other in a contest to prove whose is harder. Things started off fine, but when Pokemon Crystal came out, the entries went slightly off the rails. They’re fantastic, and paint the life of a Geodude in a humorous light. One thing I’ve always enjoyed about Geodude is its Pokedex entries across the series. Some people speculate that Golem was originally supposed to evolve into Graveler, because two extra arms seems much more evolution-y than a weird dinosaur motif, but I think that’s even dumber than it currently is. It doesn’t look at all like a continuation of Graveler. Graveler is not one of those unfortunately. I’m really only bothering to do one for them for the few that are not only viable, but actually very good. Graveler’s extra arms are tiny, and therefore useless. Two extra arms may be continuing the evolution theme that brought us Machamp, but it’s still pretty different here. Not the kinda guy I’d feel comfortable around. That’s the much more viable strategy to take out of all this. Eviolite is also viable, but you’ll be trading off a weaker Explosion for it.Or just don’t use Graveler. 95 Base Attack isn’t the worst ever, but don’t expect too much, and do keep in mind that if you’re using a Life Orb then using any other attacks will auto-break your Sturdy due to recoil. Other moves, should you have the opportunity to use any, should be Earthquake and Stone Edge. Make sure Sturdy is your ability, so you can survive a horrible hit to get the explosion off. Assuming your enemy sets up on their own first turn, and you’re equipped with a Life Orb or something, you then use Explosion to rock your opponent’s world. Pump EV’s into your HP and Special Defense, then set up Stealth Rocks on your first turn. Your best option in my opinion is to first question why you picked a Graveler, and then commit suicide.īy which I mean a Stealth Rocks lead. 35 Speed is absolutely atrocious, and you’re not likely to get much out of Graveler even with a Rock Polish up. Unfortunately, Graveler doesn’t have a little thing like Little Cup to fall back on, like Geodude did, so it’s awful. Again with the two good stats in a sea of awful stats. ![]()
