Groudon

Anyone who touches the scorching body of this Pokémon takes damage. It’s massive. An effective strategy is to stand by it and protect yourself. Groudon (, Groudon) is a creature in the media franchise.

Origin
is a Ground-type and the  of  and, in its Primal form, of. Groudon is categorized within the Pokédex at #383 as the "Continent Pokémon". It is the embodiment of landmasses, and its originally unique ability is able to summon strong sunlight on the battlefield.

is a special Fire-type move with 130 (140 before Generation VI) base power and 90% accuracy which lowers by two levels the user's Special Attack stat after each successful use. Groudon is able to learn it by TM or TR in every generation where it is available, usually by.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon
Groudon can be summoned by a Poké Ball: upon appearing it remains stationary, occasionally turning around, roaring, or moving its head or tail, and uses Overheat, covering itself with a fiery aura which damages all opponents which come in contact with it. Its size makes it hard to avoid when it first appears.

Groudon's effect is very similar to Moltres' one, except Groudon is much larger (approximately twice the size) and lasts longer. However, Groudon's attack is significantly weaker: while touching Moltres can sometimes result in a OHKO, touching Groudon does rather low damage (7% lower belly, 15% mouth, 10% everywhere else) with decent knockback, being incapable of KOing until high percentages (110% for mouth, 150% for body, and lower belly around 285%). While avoiding Groudon can be difficult, Groudon is arguably one of, if not the least effective legendary Pokémon in the game, due to its low damage output and difficulty to KO.

Glitch
If Groudon is summoned in an enclosed area that's smaller than Groudon (such as a custom stage with a 1×1 area surrounded by solid objects), it will get stuck, freeze, have no damage hitboxes, and will never despawn.

In
