PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Volt Switch OR Rollout* + Wild Charge and Rock Blast

Volt Switch is generally the move of choice due to its high energy gains and solid damage. Rollout offers significant energy generation while falling behind in damage output, leaving Alolan Golem more dependent on its Charge Moves to close out the fight. Rock Throw is now somewhat out of favor due to its poor energy generation. 

Wild Charge is the main charge move used on Alolan Golem thanks to its high DPE rating and offering coverage against Water-types. Rock Blast is slightly more favorable than Stone Edge due to its lower energy cost which also allows shield-baiting, even though Stone Edge has a more efficient DPE value. 

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 3 / 5

Alolan Golem is an offensive-oriented Pokemon in PvP, with somewhat well-rounded stats, a very vulnerable typing, and a slow but hard-hitting moveset. A weakness to the almost ubiquitous Fighting and Water-types sets it back quite a bit, as does unextraordinary bulk. What it does have going for it is a powerful moveset that allows it to compete against much more bulkier Pokemon in the league. Overall a somewhat risky choice due to its easily exploitable weaknesses, which leaves Alolan Golem dependent on limited formats to avoid some of its vulnerabilities. 

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Alolan Golem has the same problems in Ultra League as it did in Great League, but unfortunately many popular Pokemon in Ultra League also dispatch Alolan Golem very easily, which makes it difficult to use in general. If you're looking at open Ultra League, consider other Pokemon instead. 

Master League: 0 / 5

With a max CP of 2949, Alolan Golem falls behind many of the big players in Master League stat-wise. The vulnerable typing, unimpressive bulk, and slow moveset are still issues that Alolan Golem has, which overall results in losses in many matchups.
