Strategy & play

How Alolan Golem plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Megaton Fall) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
  • Hits for 160 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Lightning Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Lightning type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥90 effectively one-shots it.
  • A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
  • Retreat cost 4 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Alolan Golem

  • Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥90 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
