Geodude (Japanese: イシツブテ, HepburnIshitsubute) (JEE-oh-dude[1]) is a Rock/Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I, and a Rock/Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

Biology[]

Alolan Geodude concept art

Concept artwork of Alolan Geodude.

Alolan Geodude are slate gray with black eyebrows and three-fingered hands (the middle, ring and pinky fingers are now one).

Behavior[]

Geodude most frequently are found in fields and on mountains. People step or trip on them from time to time, mistaking them for rocks. Its arms are so strong that it can use them to climb mountains. Rhyperior sometimes accidentally shoot Geodude from their cannon-like arms, mistaken them as normal rocks.

The entire body of an Alolan Geodude is electrical and magnetic. Anyone who steps on a Geodude will feel a slight snap followed by a nasty jolt of electricity. Alolan Geodudes often compete in headbutting battles; the one with the strongest magnetic force will attract more iron sand.

Natural abilities[]

Geodude can have the ability Rock Head or the ability Sturdy. Rock Head prevents Geodude from suffering recoil damage from using moves like Double-Edge. Sturdy causes all one-hit knockout moves to be negated.

Evolution[]

Geodude evolves into Graveler at level 25. Graveler further evolves into Golem by trading.

Appearances[]

Anime[]

Geodude is a recurring character in the Pokémon anime. It first appeared in the fifth episode, Showdown in Pewter City, used by Gym Leader Brock to battle Ash. Brock became a travel companion of Ash and owned Geodude for the first five seasons. Navel Island Gym Leader Danny, Rustboro City Gym Leader Roxanne and Oreburgh city Gym Leader Roark have also used Geodude. In the anime, Geodude is able to levitate above the ground.

Trivia[]

  • It is the first Rock-type Pokémon in the National Dex.
  • Despite being called Geodude, it has an equal chance of being male or female.
  • Geodude's name comes from the words "geode", a type of rock that has crystals inside of it, and "dude".
  • Geodude's shiny has gone through three color changes. In Generation II, its shiny was a bronze color. In Generation III, it had a dark brown color. Finally, since Generation IV, it has now stayed a gold-yellow color.
  • Alolan Geodude and its evolutions are the only Rock/Electric-type.
  • Geodude is one of the collectable spirits in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
  • Despite of Geodude being shown floating in the air, it is superbly effected by Ground-type moves. It cannot have the ability Levitate and cannot learn Magnet Rise.

Origin[]

Geodude appears to be based on a rock, boulder, or throwing stone. Its Shiny coloration may be based on a gold nugget.

Geodude's Alolan form appears to be a pun on a thunderegg, a crystalline rock similar to a geode that forms with volcanic ash layers. Its "hair" also appears to be based on magnetic sand.

Etymology[]

Geodude may come from the words geode, dude, and the prefix geo- (meaning Earth).
