Geodude is a cool Rock-type, but shows up so much I have to lower its score. Graveler is a piece of crap with arms, but it can learn a bunch of HM moves. And Golem...it's Golem, and it kicks loads of tail. If only it wasn't so weak to plants and water...

I love Geodude, and Graveler's fine but Golem's a large departure from them for me that I'm not a huge fan of.

Why would anyone like it? It's one of the least inspired of any pokemon. it's literally putting eyes on a rock.

--
http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m22v7po1zZ1qjcqpco3_250.gif

Well I guess. It's still the original Rock line, so I figured that'd mean something.

Uh... are there any more 3-stage Rock type lines? Because I can't think of any.

Yeah, this line is entirely forgettable and uninspired. Trade evolutions were annoying too, and it's one thing dealing with them for cool/strong stuff like Kazam, Gengar or even Champ and another to do it for the poor man's Rhydon.
