Description ALNEAN IGNEOUS GEODUDE FAMILY
.
Scientific Classification:
Kingdom: Inanimatae
Phylum: Naturalis
Class: Minerinae
Order: Petroforma
Family: Polyductidae
Genus: Saxomonstrum
Species: S. sphaerica
Subspecies: S. sphaerica ignis
.
[Notes: So, there are things that I think the Geodude family didn't do justice. And the sole reason for that is Golem's design. Not that I hate it, it's one of my favorites, but it just doesn't look like a part of the family. First, it looks more like a generic tortoise rather than the rock monsters that it's pre evolutions are. Second, it only has four limbs when Graveler has six. Why should a pre evolution have a more advanced anatomy than the mature? Anyways, I've tried to match things up while keeping the source in tact with this one. So, on with the Dex entry…]
.
The Igneous Geodude line is a living proof that you become what you eat. These Geodude variants inhabits the volcanic belts of Alneo Region, feeding on the fresh lava. The magma is stored inside the rocky exterior and acts as both powerhouse and defense for the Pokémon.
.
As the name implies, the rocky exterior of this subspecies is made up of Igneous rock, giving these Pokémon a more rugged appearance than their brethren. These variants possess various vents on their body that oozes magma continuously, allowing the Pokémon to use it for attacking offenders. When threatened, these Pokémon tend to explode into a blast of magma with an impact equal to volcanic eruptions.
.
These Pokémon have are bulkier than their other counterparts when it comes to physical defense, with shell hard enough to be able to crush steel. That combined with the enhanced special attack stat makes this Pokémon a formidable companion in battles.

This should've been the Alola form of the Geodude family.

Another dream come true!! 

You're right about Golem, but this is not the first and only case of different shape/color etc. from a stage to the other one (remember OCTILLERY!? )

Anyways, I LOVE Graveler's "horns" nd the lava around the eyes and onto its hands. Golem has now 4 arms and that's even better than the original one. That burned ground vibe on Golem's body is a really cool characteristic that reflects its type and its habitat!

With the Alnean Golem, you should have incorporated the Volcano from Alnean golem somewhere it its design but not bad

I know, and that was the initial thought, but then I thought of revealing the lava and keeping the rocks in tact. It's like the appearances are homologous to a volcano: Geodude is the dormant state, Graveler is the exploding/active one, and Golem represents the volcano after eruption.

Oh that makes sense but still, it should have the volcano somewhere on its body as when a volcano stops erupting, it doesn't just go away. It could have been a smoking volcano or something

Love the look of your Graveler. The volcano on its back is a nice touch.

Agreed on Golem's design, it really should've been more similar to Geodude and Graveler.
