Golem is a phenomenal Rock and Ground-typed Pokemon. It's pretty common to find yourself dealing with Golem when battling in the 1st generation meta. There were no known abilities or equippable items back in the Red/Blue Pokemon games. Golem is weak to Fighting, Grass, Ground, Ice, and Water-typed attacks.
Golem is a marvelous Physical Sweeper. It's primary goal is to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. Gen1 meta was a totally different monster. Before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Earthquake is a physical STAB-boosted 100-base power Ground-type move that deals a colossal amount of damage. ♦ Dig is a physical STAB-boosted 100-base power Ground-type move (digs underground turn 1, strikes turn 2). ♦ Hyper Beam is a physical 150-base power Normal-type move (can't move next turn if target or sub is not koed). ♦ Double-Edge is a physical 100-base power Normal-type move (has 1/4 recoil). ♦ Rock Slide is a physical STAB-boosted 75-base power Rock-type move that deals damage. ♦ Seismic Toss is a physical 1-base power Fighting-type move (damage = Golem's level. can hit ghost types). ♦ Counter is a physical 0-base power Fighting-type move (if hit by physical attack, returns double damage).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
