How does Golem 137 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.

What Golem 137 does without attacking

Golem 137 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.

Printed effects

Capped at once a turn

None

Read from the printed text quoted below, not counted anywhere else.

Desperate Blast — Ability

If this Pokémon is in the Active Spot and is Knocked Out by damage from an attack from your opponent's Pokémon, put 10 damage counters on the Attacking Pokémon.

Quoted from the card face. The label after the dash is how the card itself names the effect.

Why this sits apart from the attacks

An attack costs Energy and ends your turn. What is printed above does neither — it is available while the card is in play, so it is a different kind of cost to a deck. Attack costs are in the section above.

This effect places damage counters, which is not the same as dealing damage

Desperate Blast puts damage counters on a Pokémon rather than dealing damage to it. One counter is ten damage on the board, but the rules keep them apart: effects that reduce or prevent damage do not stop counters from being placed, and weakness and resistance are not applied to them.

Is Golem 137 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 160 damage attack that needs 3 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.

What does being a Fighting card do for Golem 137?

Of the 396 cards in the archive that can remove Golem 137 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 90 printed damage against a bar of 90. 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.

What has to be in play before Golem 137 can be?

Golem evolves from Graveler, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Graveler.
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 076.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (180 HP). The note beside each bar is the hardest attack printed at that stage.

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 Golem print, and can the older ones still be played?

27 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.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (330 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

Which rules apply to Golem 137, and where can it be played?

Golem 137 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.

What it asks a deck for

Its hardest attack, Double-Edge, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 53 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 4 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
It cannot start the game in play — Graveler has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 2,218 of 17,290

Fighting cardsNo. 233 of 1,884

Stage 2 cardsNo. 301 of 1,749

Fusion StrikeNo. 48 of 245

What actually removes it

A Grass attack printed at 90 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 180 HP.
396 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 3,438 cards in one attack.

Golem 137 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Golem 137?

Golem 137 has 180 HP and a Grass weakness at ×2, so a Grass attack printed at 90 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 180.

What is the strongest attack on Golem 137?

Double-Edge, printed at 160 damage for 3 Energy — 53 damage per Energy card. This Pokémon also does 30 damage to itself.

What is the retreat cost of Golem 137?

4 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

Does Golem 137 deal damage or place damage counters?

It places damage counters. One counter is ten damage on the board, but the two are different things in the rules: weakness and resistance are not applied to counters, and effects that reduce or prevent damage do not stop counters from being placed.

Can an older Golem print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 25 prints listed on this page, 3 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

What does Golem evolve from?

Graveler. It cannot be played straight from your hand onto an empty spot — the earlier stage has to be in play first.

Can Golem 137 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited and Expanded play, and it carries regulation mark E. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Golem 137 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
