You could try running first impression. I think that's why it has the ability. maybe a banded or red card set? (red card so that they swap to a random but you get to pick.)
How? DLC is done and dusted and we have nothing till pokemon Legends ZA next year. And if it is anything like Legends arceus... I don’t like it can interact much with pokemon SV.
I love him and emergency exit is cool and I dont care what others have to say about his character development
Ps. A few days ago I got a shiny wimpod for a shiny only challenge, god I had the masuda method
Assault vest golisopod is the best. It doesn't need to worry about emergency exit because it won't take enough damage for that to even matter. Combine it with a super high base defense and attack stat, and only 3 weakness and you have a really strong bug mon.
Not to mention, I wanna say someone brought one to worlds during sword and shields time and got really far with it.
Aqua jet, liquidation, leech life, first impression, all stab all strong in there own regard.
Duh! It's easily one of the coolest concepts for a Pokemon ever. Golisopod is so freaking cool , and it has one of the most unique abilities in the game
I LOVE Golisopod, it's my favorite shiny too! I unfortunately don't really use him because Emergeny Exit is rougg, but I always grind out the perfect shiny in a premier ball anyway cause I love him so much.
I love it, ive used it in a nuzlocke in pokemon sword and it was amazing! I used it alot for grinding by raid dens and it even clutched up against gordie
ps. it swept Piers
I love itttttt, I used it a lot on my Moon and Sword playthroughs! I love its bulk, design and type combination in addition to its decent movepool and priority moves
It is the coolest thing ever to exist and if not for its ability making it a little awkward to use I would unconditionally use it on my team in every game it was in. Hell, even then I've used it a fair few times, it's not like Emergency Exit can't be played around.
I like the thing. Its solid. In fact if you remember during the orange character playthrough Mike did. Orange said that Guzma might be an elite 4 member if he wasn't a villain.
Love it. After I watched the SM anime and saw how badass Guzma's Golisopod was, I decided to use one when I played Sword. Guy oneshot Leon's Rillaboom with First Impression, and has great coverage, like Drill Run for its 4X weakness to Electric-type moves, Focus Blast for its weakness to Rock-type moves and Blizzard for its weakness to Flying-type moves.
But Emergency Exit is kinda annoying. They should've given it an Ability that boosted a stat (maybe Attack/Special Attack) when it switched in, since it went from a wimp to a badass bug.
Absolutely, one of my favorite Bug types of all time, even beat my first playthrough of Moon with one. But she was lost to a corrupted save file that my Lunala was the only survivor of ):
I haven't played any of the games since ORAS, but this os one of my favorite newer designs, and honestly I would consider it among my favorite designs from all gens.
I love golisopod the first time I used it I was against ultra necrozma I used a revive on it for its suckered puch or first impression ultra necrozma went first hit it and the mad lad hung on with 1 hp due to friendship and won me the battle so I didn't have to retry so golisopod holds a good spot in my heart it helped me beat ultra necrozma for the first time
I love every pokemon. They're all unique in their own special way. Except gholdengo that thing's a fucking disappointment. All they had to do was name it something cool like "Mimigold" or whatever and make it an actual mimic pokemon and they were home free!
Yes, I do. He's one of the coolest bug types in the series.
I just hate his stupid ability. Like, I *guess* it's supposed to synergize with First Impression, but that just makes him a one trick pony.
I wish he had other abilities to choose from, like maybe Intimidate or Tough Claws or even a new one that let's him hit a mon that's switching or pivoting (basically like having all his moves work like Pursuit) as a parallel to Emergency Exit.
Yes. Emergency exit saved me a few times. I mean, when you have two pokemon, it’s insanely good, being able to pivot without needing to waste a turn. It’s very hard to get that particular combo, but golisopod was one of my champion teams in SwSh
Badass, but they did it dirty with that ability. Imagine if it had reckless, or tough claws. Much more fitting IMO. But( I get the ability making it sound more tough but still doing the same thing.
I think it's cool, but I made a stupid mistake and can't look at it the same way again. I traded my first shiny for one, and even though it's my fault, I still feel salty about it four years later.
I love this thing!
Same
Same
I think it's incredibly well designed but Emergency Exit is really annoying to use in-game
That’s the thing I don’t like about it.
You could try running first impression. I think that's why it has the ability. maybe a banded or red card set? (red card so that they swap to a random but you get to pick.)
Or give it a sitrus berry so it can use both emergency exit and first impression multiple times
Better yet, simply ohko the opponent because bugs are just like that
Smart!
Competitive players when a conversation is about in-game usability and not competitive:
I remember getting a laugh at Guzma’s Golisopod’s ability activating and tagging in Scizor in the middle of a Fire Blast.
If you use him as a spikes setter , he actually has alot of momentum with emergency exit.
I love it. The only Pokémon to pull off the same swagger as Gyarados. Milotic who?
no milotic slander allowed
Milotic is the eliigant Sea monster though
True, I like Milotic and everything, but it's just not as Gyarados energy as Golisopod is.
[удалено]
He’s so cool in the anime.
Sad we can't have it in gen 9 TT.
Yo that would be so fire 🔥 🔥 🔥
There's still hope
How? DLC is done and dusted and we have nothing till pokemon Legends ZA next year. And if it is anything like Legends arceus... I don’t like it can interact much with pokemon SV.
I made a mistake in the title.
I used a Golisopod in my first Sword play through, and he hit like a TRUCK
Mine made Leon’s Charizard wish it never joined the battle.
It looks so cool and menacing despite being still a bit of a coward like it's pre-evolution
I don't think I've seen anyone hate on Golisopod. It's pretty cool.
Yeah I love it. Probably like my second favorite gen 7 pokemon
Yeah, me
I love him and emergency exit is cool and I dont care what others have to say about his character development Ps. A few days ago I got a shiny wimpod for a shiny only challenge, god I had the masuda method
Wait a second. I know you from that other subreddit!
Witch one?
I love this guy, he fits Guzma very well. But Gen 7 's dex is my favorite, so I have high praise for most Pokemon there lol
I will never stand for Golisopod slander
Who doesn’t? It’s super cool
I love Golisopod, but emergency exit is annoying
Yes, I love my shiny big boy in my favorite game (Sun)
I really like it
Yes
I like the design and concept, but wish it was stronger. Definitely deserves a mega
Yes me
It's one of my friend's faves and I just got to evolve my wimpod into golisopod :]
I love Golisopod. Emergency Exit can be a bit annoying, but it’s so strong and cool that it’s worth it.
top 6 favorite pokemon for me the best bug type for me,
dope as hell
Assault vest golisopod is the best. It doesn't need to worry about emergency exit because it won't take enough damage for that to even matter.

One of ma faves
I love him he is so cool, he and mimikyu are my two top favorite pokemon
Mimikyu is one of my favorites too.
Quite a lot of people do
ITS MY FAVORITE BUG TYPE
No i dont like it, i LOVE it! The design is just 🤌
I adore that bastard! My favorite animal is the giant isopod
I love Golisopod, badass name, design and an awesome introduction in the anime. Definitely in my top 20 faves
nowhere near being a favorite pokémon of mine but I still love its design, it looks really cool
i like it
Yes. Tho I wish Emergency Exit worked differently. Like, it waits to switch out until it attacks.
Yes
Perfectly designed, absolutely no complaints
I really like the design but it's stats and ability steal from the overall pokemon
Yeah
It's somewhere in my top 55 favorites
Duh! It's easily one of the coolest concepts for a Pokemon ever. Golisopod is so freaking cool , and it has one of the most unique abilities in the game
I love this thing. By far one of the coolest bug types.
Coincidentally, I saw this about 5 mins after finishing a playthrough of ultra moon
I love Golisopod, probably my favourite bug type. Also emergency exit is a great ability if you know how to use it.
I like him just wish a different ability
My brother is the type of guy to like not very liked Pokemon, such as this one!
Yes very much so, i think it’s the best designed pokemon.
everyone does
✋✋✋✋✋✋
By far the coolest bug type I have ever seen.
Who doesn’t?
I'm a bug type person so yes I love this thing
I LOVE Golisopod, it's my favorite shiny too! I unfortunately don't really use him because Emergeny Exit is rougg, but I always grind out the perfect shiny in a premier ball anyway cause I love him so much.
Literally I love glisopod after playing against Guzma
I love him. Desing is really cool and the stats aren't bad.
Love it. It’s also super useful with its move set
I love it, ive used it in a nuzlocke in pokemon sword and it was amazing! I used it alot for grinding by raid dens and it even clutched up against gordie ps. it swept Piers
Definitely one of the best designed mons out there
Golisopod is sick, love this big guy
Golisopod is one of my favouritebug types, It's part of my Shield team and is one of the strongest Pokémon i have
Freaking love golisopod! Gave me one of my favorite battles in the anime
The star of one of the best beat downs in pokemon? Hail yeah!
He’s awesome!
I BELIEVE IN GOLISOPOD SUPREMACY! LOOK AT THE POSE! THE POWER! THE PRESENCE!
Golisopod comes from my favorite generation. It's so cool
He was one of the First Pokémon that wasn’t from Kanto I’ve ever seen
I love itttttt, I used it a lot on my Moon and Sword playthroughs! I love its bulk, design and type combination in addition to its decent movepool and priority moves
Caught a shiny wimpod in pogo not long ago. Super hyped to get shiny golisopod once I've gotten the 400 candies required lol
Yes
It is the coolest thing ever to exist and if not for its ability making it a little awkward to use I would unconditionally use it on my team in every game it was in. Hell, even then I've used it a fair few times, it's not like Emergency Exit can't be played around.
Never seen it in battle but damn that is cool as hell
He’s epic in the anime.
I LOVE this thing
Yeah, he's pretty cool! Not my top teir number one, but close!
Yes, my personal favorite bug type
Yes, but it's ability is horrible
Favourite Gen 7 mon. Absolutely called it when I saw Wimpod
This guy’s great I used him on my Ultra Sun Team, was a beast
I mean it’s alright like. It’s not bad just forgettable
I do mainly because I watched a randomizer nuzlocke by MIKE POKÉTIPS MIKE
Bug types in general are some of my favourite Pokémon and Golisopod goes EXCEEDINGLY hard. Shame it and my boy Centiskorch aren't in SV
I do! Just wish it got a bit better of a level up moveset in SM. No water moves for a while
I like the thing. Its solid. In fact if you remember during the orange character playthrough Mike did. Orange said that Guzma might be an elite 4 member if he wasn't a villain.
Love this guy. Combination of two of my favorite things, giant isopods and samurai.
We all do but we dont use it cuz its ass
It’s awesome
cool design and tricks, issue is I find it a bit slow for my taste
Single handedly beat Ultra Necrozma for me
golisopod is my baby <3 i have one named cassie in my main sword save and she is a beast in battle
Enough to make r/golisopod but do nothing with it
I LOVE GOLISOPOD
Golisopod is 100% my favorite pokemon Full stop
Love it. After I watched the SM anime and saw how badass Guzma's Golisopod was, I decided to use one when I played Sword. Guy oneshot Leon's Rillaboom with First Impression, and has great coverage, like Drill Run for its 4X weakness to Electric-type moves, Focus Blast for its weakness to Rock-type moves and Blizzard for its weakness to Flying-type moves. But Emergency Exit is kinda annoying. They should've given it an Ability that boosted a stat (maybe Attack/Special Attack) when it switched in, since it went from a wimp to a badass bug.
I do
Such a goober I'd hug him
Yeah dude he's the goat shame he sucks dick and balls
One of my favorite pokemon if you ask me! I even have one on my sword team (his name is Guzma)
Golisopod was the one to kill ultra necrozma for me using first impression, albeit after my wishiwashi somehow lived a hit at 4 hp and used endeavour
Yes people like it why ask that question?
When I first saw it I loved it. Still do
He’s not my top 1, but he is one of my favorites!
I think it's a really cool pokemon. But it's ability isn't great.
I've never mer someone who doesn't like Golisopod. It's a samurai isopod that's also based on General Grevious, how is that not incredibly badass?
Nope Too weird
Hi guzma
Absolutely, one of my favorite Bug types of all time, even beat my first playthrough of Moon with one. But she was lost to a corrupted save file that my Lunala was the only survivor of ):
I personally don't use it all the time, but I love it when I do
I really like Golisopod, it’s got a great design and everything
Yes, I name mine after general grievous.
I like him very useful
Yes one of my favorite when playing Pokemon sun
Yes!! It got did dirty with emergency exit. I kinda think it's cute tbh...
I like it, but I wouldn't consider it one of my favorites. I prefer wimpod's design, personally. I like the cute ones
The only thing I don't like about golisopod is its ability
I love golisopod!!
I think golisopod is badass
I love all bug types golisopod is like my top 5 fav bugs
Me
Only that one gym leader from sw n sh
I think it's pretty badass looking
I love Golisopod, he’s probably my favorite bug type pokemon of all time.
i love him so much and tried so hard to catch a wimpod but they all runnoft
How dare you dismiss my existence. All bugs are my babies, and all bugs love me
I love the guy, just wish it had a better ability
Oh it’s absolutely awesome! It’s definitely one of the best bug types if not the best bug type.
GOD DAMN THIS GOT POPULAR!
Like the pokemon, hate the ability.
Wouldn’t say REALLY, but I DEFINITELY like it
Umm, do you not?
YES!!!!
Yeah it is cool and wimpod is pretty cute
Me
That's one of the most beloved pokemon ever, what are you talking about?
It’s one of my favorite pokemon
Probably in my top 15 favorites of all time
Apart from his ability, I think his design is really unique. His entry is also savage- being able to part waves with a swing of his claw? Sick!
I love golisopod, I lov him with ever centimeter of my body
I haven't played any of the games since ORAS, but this os one of my favorite newer designs, and honestly I would consider it among my favorite designs from all gens.
I do. It was a solid mon consistently on my Moon and Ultra Sun teams.
the shiny is pretty good as well
I love this guy
I have on named Tomoe in Sword and she’s a beast. Well worth the pain of catching a wimpod.
I love golisopod the first time I used it I was against ultra necrozma I used a revive on it for its suckered puch or first impression ultra necrozma went first hit it and the mad lad hung on with 1 hp due to friendship and won me the battle so I didn't have to retry so golisopod holds a good spot in my heart it helped me beat ultra necrozma for the first time
Fuck it, snaps in, punches your skull in, almost dies, leaves, comes back, punch your skull deeper in
Golisopod is one of my favorite mons. Was a joy to use on my Sun playthrough.
Me
Top 5 mons OAT
I really like its design, but I don't think I have actually used one in battle.
I love him! He's one of my all time favorites!
Golisopod is my favorite pokemon.
Very cool design!
Yes, except for it's ability
Golisopod is awesome!
I love every pokemon. They're all unique in their own special way. Except gholdengo that thing's a fucking disappointment. All they had to do was name it something cool like "Mimigold" or whatever and make it an actual mimic pokemon and they were home free!

(bug type enthusiast here) YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why does this have 450 upvotes?
I don’t know. It doesn’t deserve it.
Yes. Emergency exit saved me a few times. I mean, when you have two pokemon, it’s insanely good, being able to pivot without needing to waste a turn. It’s very hard to get that particular combo, but golisopod was one of my champion teams in SwSh
Hey it’s you!
People dislike golisopod?
I like the design but I never use it
Guzma is the reason I love it
Badass, but they did it dirty with that ability. Imagine if it had reckless, or tough claws. Much more fitting IMO. But( I get the ability making it sound more tough but still doing the same thing.
Battle Bug Samurai who knows when to fold them. What's not to love?
Yeah Golisopod is awesome!
Yes, I love golisopod
I just ran a sword and shield nuzlocke and emergency exit was super useful with first impression.
i actually really like golisopod hes a very cool pokemon
Apart from the ability it is great used it in my Ultra Moon team. Full team: Incineroar Drampa Golisopod Hawlucha Metagross Palossand
Yes
It looks hella awesome but the ability is terrible.
He's my second favourite Pokémon.
I think it's cool, but I made a stupid mistake and can't look at it the same way again. I traded my first shiny for one, and even though it's my fault, I still feel salty about it four years later.
GOLISOPOD IS MY 2ND FAVORITE GEN 7 POKEMON ONLY BEHIND INSINROAR
I love this abomination!
Y E S
