Geodude (イシツブテ Ishitsubute in Japanese, Kleinstein in German and Racaillou in French) is a fictional character from the Pokémon franchise. In Gold and Silver onward, it can be found by using the move Rock Smash to destroy cracked rocks. The only other Pokémon that can be found this way are Krabby, Shuckle and Nosepass.

Geodude's name may be a combination of the prefix geo, earth, and dude, a nickname for a male. Geodude also seems to incorporate the word 'geode.'

Biology

Geodude has a rock for a head and no nose. Its long arms start with a bulging muscle and end with rock hands resembling a human's. It is very strong, as witnessed in various episodes of the anime.

Geodude most frequently are found in fields and on mountains. It is precisely this that makes people step or trip on them from time to time, thinking they were rocks. Its arms are so strong that it can use them to climb mountains.

In the video games

In Pokémon Leaf Green, Geodude can be caught in several areas of Kanto, as well as One Island and Seven Island of the Sevii Islands. In previous games, it was a very common Pokémon. When inside a cave, the player is most likely to find a Geodude.

In the anime

Geodude is a frequently occurring character in the Pokémon anime. It is a Pokémon owned by Brock, former Gym Leader of Kanto's Pewter City. Geodude is portrayed as very friendly (indicating that, though it is made of rock, its heart is not), and is one of the first Pokémon to become friends with Ash's Larvitar. Brock does not take Geodude into Hoenn. During his visit to the gym, shown in Pokémon Chronicles, Brock gives it to his brother to fight with as Gym Leader.
