Golemin Pokémon Polished Crystal
Pokédex Entry
Megaton Pokémon
It fires rocks charged with electricity. Just grazing an opponent causes numbness and fainting. Golem has two forms in Polished Crystal, the regular Rock/Ground and the newer Rock/Electric. Unique because both have the same stats, however the Alolan electric version will give it a lot more coverage than the plain form. While both are pretty offensive Pokemon, the Electric version has a bit more options and advantage with type coverage.
