Despite it getting fucked by Ground, is Rock/Electric a good type? Any experts want to pitch in on whether it'll be good defensively or offensively?

>>29540599
Magnetic Rise?

>>29540558
what if it can pull the things down so it can roll

>>29540599
Well, its part rock type.

So probably not.

Its not like electric has many resistances, but thats what you get for being weak only to one type

>>29540558
This ties with persian for absolute shittiness.

It might be slightly better if the railgun pops in and out of its body.
But even then the facial hair just ruins it. I get it, iron sand or whatever, but it looks like shit.

Another example of dude anthropomorphization lmao killing pokemon.

Not really a good one. It's decent offensively but this thing looks really slow.

>>29540658
thing is it made more sense the last time they did iron filling hair, how is alolan golem's face the center of magnetism attracting fillings and not the fat railgun on its back.

it doesn't serve to make it look cooler or goofier or anything it only serves to mask that there's barely anything different to the original golem in a very lazy manner.

it is the ultimate talonflame counter

People can like it because it looks like Osama Bin Laden, pretty much all you need to know

The railgun is retractable

Golem has always been shit. Electric typing isn't going to change that.
The only thing he had going for him was a cool design, but now that's ruined too.

Bravo Gamefreak.

I just hope it gets that priority rock move from lycanroc

>>29540599
If ground wasn't a type it would be great offensively, in defense it's meh, still, that neutral damage against steel sound nice; too bad this guy is too slow, a glass cannon would be far more interesting

The black parts on Geodude and Graveller look more like obsidian chips, honestly, rather than iron filings. They're all angular and sticking right out. Also clearly the same material the "railgun" is made out of, too.
Is it possible that its just some black volcanic rock rather than iron filings again?
probably not

>>29540649
>Railgun retracts
>Golem's arms pop out to proper length

Is it weird that I like Alolan Graveler the most out of the set?
I kinda want to try using one with Eviolite, despite that it's probably a horrible idea.

>opponent used protect
also they could potentially gang up on alolan golem and defeat it before it explodes

also it might have less base attack than the original

>>29546946
yeah I'm just being optimistic

it works better with banded Electrode cause that actually has a speed stat

The alolan geodude line should have been rock fire with golem looking like a meteor with lava in its crevices and maybe a small volcano on its back.

>>29540951
Rock is a better offensive type than ground.

>>29540658
Both Alolan Golem and Alolan Persian are better than the originals.
