Dugtrio, Sandshrew, Geodude

Alright, let's talk about a few of the Ground-types you'll encounter: Dugtrio, Sandshrew, and Geodude. These Pokémon are super useful, especially when you're facing opponents who rely on Electric-type attacks, as they resist them and can hit back hard with Ground-type moves.

Sandshrew

Sandshrew is your first real taste of a speedy Ground-type. It's not the strongest, but its Speed can let it get the first hit in. Its signature move, Dig, is a two-turn attack. On the first turn, it digs underground, making it immune to most attacks. On the second, it pops up and strikes! Just be careful, because if the opponent uses an attack that hits underground Pokémon (like Earthquake), you'll still take damage.

Dugtrio

Dugtrio is basically a faster Sandshrew with a higher Attack stat. It's got three heads, which is pretty cool, and it can learn some powerful Ground-type moves. Its speed is its biggest asset, letting it outpace a lot of opponents. Like Sandshrew, it can also use Dig, but its higher Attack means it hits harder when it emerges.

Geodude

Geodude is a bit different. It's a Rock/Ground type, which gives it a double weakness to Water and Grass attacks, so you'll want to be careful there. However, it has a really solid Defense stat, making it quite bulky. Geodude often learns moves like Magnitude, which is a Ground-type move with variable power, or Rock Throw. Its slower speed means you'll likely be taking a hit before you can attack, so make sure its Defense is up to par or that you have a type advantage.
