Craglith. Crag + Lith, from Lithos, greek for Rock.
EDIT: New name.
Protolith. Proto, from Latin or Greek, I don't know, means First, and Lith, means Rock. "First Rock"... like Ancient [We can link that with the attack "Ancient Beam"]. It also sounds like Proton, a electric particle... We can link that with the Levitate Ability.

Baptistina
Baptistina was a huge astroid just outside our solar system. The meteor that killed our prehistoic scaley friends was actually a piece of Baptistina.

Just want to say that X-Act's (and Doug's, heheh...) "Stratagem" is by far the best and most appropriate name so far.
Anyway, here is my first contribution:
[size=+1]#1: Incairnate[/size]
|in-car-nate| or |in-care-in-ate| (which ever is preferred)
A fusion of "Incarnate" and "Cairn"
-incarnate
adjective |inˈkärnit; -ˌnāt| [often postpositive ]
(esp. of a deity or spirit) embodied in flesh; in human form : God incarnate | he chose to be incarnate as a man.
• [ postpositive ] represented in the ultimate or most extreme form : here is capitalism incarnate.
ORIGIN late Middle English : from ecclesiastical Latin incarnat- ‘made flesh,’ from the verb incarnare, from in- ‘into’ + caro, carn- ‘flesh.’
-cairn |ke(ə)rn|
noun
1 a mound of rough stones built as a memorial or landmark, typically on a hilltop or skyline.
• a prehistoric burial mound made of stones.
ORIGIN late Middle English : from Scottish Gaelic carn.
Also look up "Isivivane"
May come up with a second entry later.

I thought I came up with Granight.... <_<
Maybe it was just Minerawl... I'll give kazio credit for it teehee.

I'm really liking Stratagem and I hope it wins, but I'll submit some anyway.
Cleaver
A cleaver is a geological formation, "cleavage" is how certain minerals break, and its arms make me think of the Grim Reaper's scythe.
So, "cleaver"+"cleavage"+"reaper."
Reapose
Again, Grim Reaper, but also a referance to angle of repose.

It sounds like the snake in from the second Harry Potter movie >_>
I cannot see any name feasibly beating Strategem or Veclawsity, I'm not even gonna try.
A special attacking, fast rock type? Pah. Boulderdash.
This name must make it to the poll.
It's one letter too long; all Pokémon names are 10 letters or less.
How about Bolderdash, then?
If Boulderdash is too long, use this one instead.
