I have a Golem with MS/EQ 91% IV and 2101 CP. Is it worth powering up a Golem with this moveset? Don't think there's a Chance to get enough candies for another evolution soon.

I vote no. Unless you really need a Blissey or Snorlax option, but I think Rhydon is a better option for ground moves. Double rock moves is where it is at for Golem, but even in that case it isnt a must have.

And I hate people who talk unsolicited shit about other people without providing any content of value.

Nobody says that when the question is about RT/SE...you know, the best Rock moveset in the game.

I wouldn't. There's nothing an all-Ground Golem does that its Rhydon counterpart doesn't do better.

I would say no. I have 2 Double Rock Golem and they are pretty amazing. Rock throw is awesome. I would grind out for another and hope for the best.

Contrary to most of the above, I'd vote yes. This is because it seems to me your Golem is already past level 20, so it wouldn't take too much dust to get it to level 30 (it tops at 2460? I have a 91 IV myself)

But this 'yes' is also subject to the constraint that you do not have a Rhydon of the same moveset and do not have any other ground attacker. I have a MS EQ Golem that I plan to power eventually, but only and only after i've powered my MS EQ Rhydon.

Golem is a good option, but Rhydon is just better in the double ground respect.

It's 25.5, lvl 30 would be 2471. I know that Rhydon is the better choice, but my only one has Megahorn >.< and rhyhorn is likely super rare here like geodude.
I just like Golem and I think a monotype moveset would not that bad. Apart from that I have a PJ/EQ Nidoking 98% IV, which is of course again worse than Rhydon.

I have two PJ/EQ Nidoqueen at level 30. It does work well on fire types, it's far better at dodging than MS/EQ. But MS/EQ is much stronger if you stand and fight.

I'll power it eventually as i said again, but if you have more pressing projects you should prioritise those first. This is more like a project number 8 for me on priority over something like the obvious dragonite, snorlax and other high DPS fighters like exeggutor.

If it was RT/SE then I would say yes indeed - but your moveset is done better by Rhydon.
...but if Rhyhorn/Rhydon is rare in your area then perhaps you might choose to go with the Golem.

Yea golem is only worth it with double rock moves then it's a Gary killer as long as said Gary doesn't have hydro pump
