Stats & Training
Attack and HP carry most of Golett's stat budget. Sp. Atk's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Attack EV. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
They were sculpted from clay in ancient times. No one knows why, but some of them are driven to continually line up boulders.
This Pokémon was created from clay. It received orders from its master many thousands of years ago, and it still follows those orders to this day.

TMs carry this one. Golett learns Earthquake and Phantom Force naturally for STAB, but the offensive range comes almost entirely from technical machines. Normal and Rock and beyond give it real matchup play.
