Shadow Alolan Golem

Much like basic Shadow Golem, Shadow Alolan Golem has decent overall power that makes it a viable choice for Rock and Electric weak raids alike. It's not outstanding, but it has the advantages of being able to perform double-duty effectively, making it a solid investment for role compression.

Best PvE Offensive Moveset

• Rock Throw is superior to Volt Switch in most circumstances.
• Rollout* is almost identical to Rock Throw in terms of average DPS, but it's also slower, making it a tiny bit worse in practice. Still, it's generally just as good.
• Volt Switch can be paired with Wild Charge for an Electric moveset.
• Stone Edge is better than Rock Blast unless Shadow Alolan Golem faints with a partially charged bar.
• Wild Charge is Alolan Golem's best charged move against Flying types if they don't have a double weakness to Rock.

Best PvE Defensive Moveset

• Volt Switch is the best Fast Move choice in general due to its outstanding damage output on defense. 
• Rollout* is the best choice for a Rock Type fast move.
• Rock Throw is the weakest pick.
• Rock Blast is slightly better than Wild Charge, having a lower energy cost, early damage window, and cross-coverage with Volt Switch.
• Stone Edge is nasty if it hits, but it may not get the chance to launch.   

Volt Switch is generally the move of choice due to its high energy gains and solid damage. Rollout offers significant energy generation while falling behind in damage output, leaving Shadow Alolan Golem more dependent on its Charge Moves to close out the fight. Rock Throw is now somewhat out of favor due to its poor energy generation. 

Wild Charge is the main charge move used on Shadow Alolan Golem thanks to its high DPE rating and offering coverage against Water-types. Rock Blast is slightly more favorable than Stone Edge due to its lower energy cost which also allows shield-baiting, even though Stone Edge has a more efficient DPE value.
