Ash's Gigalith (Aura)

Ash's Boldore was the eighth Pokémon that Ash Calem Ketchum obtained in the Unova region.

Personality and characteristics
As a Roggenrola, Boldore has shown to be very resourceful, using a stand alone bowl for defense, as well as using its Flash Cannon attack to destroy falling boulders, or its Sandstorm to put out a fire. It also appears to care deeply for others and goes out of its way to ensure their safety, such as the lengths it went to save the other Roggenrola, even to go as far as to risk its life facing Team Rocket's mecha head on. It also made sure other wild Pokémon in the general area knew of the impending danger, despite the issue not involving them. This was also shown when it sought out the missing Audino with its hearing ability. It was also shown to get quite excitable, bouncing up and down, when helping to save the day.

After evolving, Boldore was shown to retain its friendly personality, even affectionately climbing on top of Ash when he hugged it after he won his match against the Driftveil City Gym Leader Clay.
