Physical properties

Hardness (Mohs scale): 6.5-7.5; Color: Brownish-gray to tan; Luster: Dull/Earthy; Crystal structure: Spheroidal rock with two muscular arms; Specific gravity: High

Formation & geological history

Formed in mountain trails, caves, and rocky terrain; they grow by using their arms to climb and roll. Many are found in the Kanto and Johto regions in areas of high tectonic activity.

Uses & applications

Used in competitive battling (Rock/Ground type), training exercises, and as reliable companions for hikers and miners in deep caverns.

Geological facts

Geodudes are often mistaken for regular boulders because they remain still while sleeping. They are known to use attacks like 'Rollout' and 'Bulldoze' to clear paths or engage opponents.

Field identification & locations

Identify in the field by looking for 'rocks' with arms often found sitting in paths; can be found in mountain ranges and caves (e.g., Mt. Moon). Use caution as they may explode (Self-Destruct).

Dark Igneous Rock (Likely Basalt or Diabase)

Basalt (extrusive igneous rock) or Diabase (intrusive igneous rock - also known as Dolerite), largely composed of plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene (augite), and sometimes olivine and amphibole. Exact mineralogy would require thin section analysis.
