The Scrubbiest of Hunters
While I'm no Golurk fan, I still think it's design and lore is interesting... though said is lore far less sensible than say, Claydol's or the Regi's. I like it somewhat.
Also, the "skirt" isn't a skirt at all, it's meant to give the impression that Golurk's body shape is indeed that of armor. Though it's somewhat reminiscent of a toga, I feel like it's goin' moreso for the imagery of medieval plate armor. Makes sense since it was created ages ago when humans might be fighting in wars alongside Pokemon as infantry or cavalry in armor, and as such Golurk was created during the time period in that image: of an armored soldier.
