Golem's body resembles a boulder because it is covered by a layer of plated rocks. It is so hard that dynamite can't scratch it. Golem has a turtle head with short arms, and legs. Unlike its previous forms, it has red eyes.
Golem are able to withdraw their heads, and arms into their shell, and roll at high speeds, usually causing small Earthquakes when doing so. Golem are dangerous when doing this, as they are unable to see, and may crash into or run over anything in their path.
(Unconfirmed!)
Golem are seldom seen in the wild. However, they can be found living in mountainous regions, just like its pre-evolutions.
(Unconfirmed!)
It shares some physical traits with turtles, but it mostly seems to be simply a living rock, which is more or less what a golem is.
Golem's name probably is a reference to the golems of medieval, and Hebrew legend.
