It is a reclusive Pokémon, rarely seen by humans, and is said to be quite shy, only emerging from its burrows on rare occasions. Dunsparce does not have any evolutionary forms, making it a standalone Pokémon, which contributes to its distinctiveness. In the Pokémon games, it often appears in areas like caves or grassy patches, typically requiring specific methods to encounter due to its elusive nature. Its design is believed to be inspired by the Tsuchinoko, a mythical Japanese cryptid.
