Orthworm ex

Orthworm, known as the Earthworm Pokémon, is a Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX with the release of the Scarlet and Violet games. Orthworm is a unique creature, resembling a large, metallic earthworm with a surprisingly expressive face. Its body is covered in a durable, flexible steel-like skin, allowing it to burrow through the earth with ease and withstand significant impacts. In the Paldea region, Orthworm is often found in mountainous and rocky areas, where it digs intricate tunnel systems. Its diet primarily consists of minerals and rocks, which it grinds down to extract nutrients, contributing to the geological processes of its habitat. Despite its somewhat intimidating appearance, Orthworm is generally docile unless provoked. In the Pokémon games, it is recognized for its high defense and unique abilities related to its metallic composition. In the anime, it has been depicted as a hardworking Pokémon, often aiding in construction or mining efforts. Its distinct design and unusual typing make it a memorable addition to the Pokémon world, standing out among the diverse fauna of the Paldea region.
