Golem (Japanese: ゴローニャ Golonya, German: Geowaz, French: Grolem) is a Rock/Ground-type Pokémon.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Emerald

It is said to live in volcanic craters on mountain peaks. Once a year, it sheds its hide and grows larger. The shed hide crumbles and returns to the soil.

Pokémon FireRed

It is enclosed in a hard shell that is as rugged as slabs of rock. It sheds skin once a year to grow larger.

Name origin

Golem's name probably is a reference to the golems of medieval and Hebrew legend. Additionally, ゴロゴローン gorogoroon is the sound of rolling.

It shares some physical traits with turtles, but it mostly seems to be simply a living rock, which is more or less what a golem is.
