Excadrill is a dual-type Ground/Steel Pokémon introduced in Generation V, evolving from Drilbur at level 31. Known as the Subterrene Pokémon, Excadrill is celebrated for its incredible digging prowess, capable of tunneling through solid rock at speeds exceeding 90 miles per hour. Its body is designed for excavation, featuring large, sharp claws that function as drills and a steel-hard head that acts as a shovel. Excadrill typically inhabits caves and underground tunnels, where it carves out vast networks of mazes and nests, often impacting human infrastructure like subway systems. Its diet likely consists of minerals and subterranean organisms. In the Pokémon anime, Excadrill is notably featured as Iris’s powerful partner, showcasing its fierce battling capabilities and strong bond with its trainer. Its unique typing gives it resistances to Normal, Flying, Rock, Bug, Steel, Psychic, Ghost, Dragon, and Dark types, and immunity to Poison, but it is notably weak to Fire, Fighting, Ground, and Water. Excadrill’s role in the games often revolves around its high Attack stat and abilities like Sand Rush, making it a formidable force in sandstorm teams.
