What do the attacks on Geodude 84 cost, and what do they hit for?
Every attack printed on the card, with the Energy it asks for.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stone Throw | 1 Fighting | 1 | — | — | Choose 2 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. This attack does 10 damage to each of them. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) |
Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
The Energy this attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.
One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.
Back to summaryHow does Geodude 84 compare with every other card?
Each bar below is the whole archive cut by one printed figure, with the band this card falls into marked. A number on its own says nothing about whether it is high or low — the shape of the archive does.

Back to summaryWhat does being a Fighting card do for Geodude 84?
Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.
17,249 cards carry an energy type. The note under each name is the weakness printed most often on that group.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Psychic | 13.5% | 2,335 cards |

Read from the weakness printed on each group. The first row is this card; the rest are groups that most often print a Fighting weakness.
What being a Fighting card is worth
Groups that most often print a Fighting weakness: Colorless (2,173 cards), Lightning (1,520 cards) and Darkness (1,249 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Fighting cards are themselves most exposed to Grass.
What knocks out Geodude 84 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
The weakness printed on the card decides which attacks are enough to remove it in one turn.
Nuzleaf50 damage50 damage becomes 60 against this card
Geodude 8460 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 875 cards in the archive that can remove Geodude 84 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 50 printed damage against a bar of 50. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.
Read from the two boxes in the lower-left corner of the card — weakness multiplies incoming damage, resistance subtracts from it.
What the Lightning resistance changes
Damage from Lightning attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack printed high enough to knock this card out on paper may not do it. Resistance is a flat subtraction, not a multiplier — it does not scale with the attack.

|---|---|---|---|---|

What is Geodude as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Geodude 84 is one print of Geodude. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.
Every Geodude print on record, split by whether it can still be entered in Standard play.
Legality is read from the print rather than from the Pokémon, so an older copy of the same Pokémon is a different card for tournament purposes.
Back to summaryWhat has to be in play before Geodude 84 can be?
Geodude evolves from an earlier stage, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.
- It is not the end of the line either — Graveler evolves from this card, so a deck can keep going past it.
- The line runs 3 stages, so the first card has to be in play 2 turns before this one can be.
- Every print in the line shares Pokédex number 074.
Every print of a stage is counted, not just the one shown in the chain above, so the bar is the ceiling that stage has reached rather than one card from it.
Is this the strongest Geodude print, and can the older ones still be played?
26 prints carry this name in the archive, and 25 of them are laid out below. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.
Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

2 of the 25 prints listed here are legal in Standard play. An older print of the same Pokémon is a different card for legality, because legality is read from the print rather than from the name — so owning the cheap old copy does not always mean you can enter with it.

| Energy per turn | You can attach Energy just once each turn! | 17,180 cards | 84.0% |

Geodude 84 in depth — what these figures add up to
Three readings of the same card, side by side: what it costs to get going, where it sits among the cards it will be compared with, and what takes it off the field.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Grass attack printed at 50 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 60 HP.
- 880 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Damage from Lightning attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack that clears the bar on paper may still fall short.
