Groudon is a massive, bipedal, dinosaur-like creature covered in red, segmented plates of thick skin that act as armor. It has a gray underside and large white spikes that run along the sides of its head, body, and tail. It has four claws on each hand, four dozer-like blades on the end of its large tail, and three claws on each foot with grey markings under its feet. It also has blue stripes inside the seams of its armor plating which can only be seen when Groudon is glowing with power.

As Primal Groudon, its appearance is similar to Groudon, but larger in size. Its skin color changes from dark red to deep crimson with its underside, spikes, and teeth turing black. The blades on its tail are more separated from one another. The Omega symbol is now shown on its arms. Its eyes, armor plating, and inside of its mouth have changed to bright yellow, and its eyes are now red. The stripes inside the armor plating have become larger. The energy that fills Primal Groudon pours forth as magma, and it burns with such an extreme temperature that its body is always shimmering with the haze of its heat.<ref name="Primal">http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/legendary-pokemon/primal-groudon</ref> In the [[SS031|anime]], Primal Groudon is said to create new land with every step it takes.
