Strategy Overview
Rock / Ground typing has never been sought after on any Pokemon, and Golem certainly is no exception to that rule. However, with base 110 Attack and base 130 Defense, as well as some powerful moves with which to abuse said stats, he can prove useful. Golem is often seen as outclassed by his Ground / Rock-type rival, Rhyperior, but Golem has a few decent options that Rhyperior doesn't. Sucker Punch is very useful for making up for his low Speed and Explosion is a very powerful move in general to go out with a bang. His shortcomings, however, prevent Golem from shining in the limelight of UU.
