Groudon (グラードン, Gurādon) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.

Creature description

Groudon is a legendary Pokémon that made its debut in the 3rd Generation games Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire for the Game Boy Advance. Groudon, a massive bipedal lizard-like titan composed of rocky matter, is the "cover mascot" of the Ruby Version and the opposing counterpart to the Sapphire Version's cover mascot Kyogre. Groudon embodies the landmasses and continents of the world, hence dryness and drought, just as Kyogre embodies the world's oceans. Groudon's special ability in the Pokémon game is Drought, a special ability that creates intense sunlight. Groudon's signature move is Eruption. Groudon is often associated with Team Magma.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Super Smash Bros. Brawl is the first Super Smash Bros. game to include Groudon, as Groudon didn't exist when the first two games were made. When summoned from a Poké Ball, the titanic Groudon appears and damages all opponents of the summoner that come into contact with it, even though it stands idly. Its size makes it hard to avoid when it first appears.
