This final stage of its evolutionary line is known for its incredibly hard, boulder-like shell, which it can retract its limbs into and roll at high speeds, often causing it to unintentionally crash into obstacles. Golem's natural habitat includes mountainous regions and caves, where its rocky exterior provides excellent camouflage. Its diet primarily consists of mineral deposits and rocks, which it grinds down with its powerful jaws. In the games, Golem is a physically defensive and offensive powerhouse, often utilized for its resistance to common attacking types like Normal and Flying. In the anime, Golem has made several appearances, showcasing its strength and rolling abilities, often as a protector of its territory or as a formidable opponent for trainers. Culturally, Golem embodies resilience and brute force, a classic example of a Pokémon that relies on its physical attributes for survival and battle. Its design, reminiscent of a living boulder, has made it an iconic figure among original 151 Pokémon.
