>>13828863>Ground Pokemon>An earthen appearance, an animal reformatted to specialize in the ground. See Sandlash (a pangolin with earthen spines), Donphan (a ground elephant). Animals that either live in the ground or have it added on (Hippowdon and Krookodile).>Rock Pokemon>Are actual mineral-based animals. Whereas Sandslash and Krookodile are adapted for the ground, these Pokemon are made of minerals. The Fossils, being fossils, are inextricably minerals, while Crustle, Magcargo, and Sudowoodo utilize rocks as part of their biology.For instance, Groudon isn't made entirely out of ground, just like Kyogre isn't made entirely out of water. Groudon's scales and claws are simply very strong earth. However, Regirock is entirely made out of rock; just as Registeel is entirely metal and Regice is entirely ice.
