===Physiology===
Excadrill has a dark brown body with red splotches diagonally set around its body. Three slashes are on its front, with two under each arm, and two on its back. It has very short legs with small, narrow feet, each containing three toes. Its small white face is long and thin, tipped by its pink nose. Its eyes are set back, straddling the bridge of the nose. Under them, on each side, are two thin red stripes, angled front to back. Its forehead extends well above its face and contains a large blade which is roughly twice as large as its face. The top of the blade contains two smaller blades, resembling fins. Its arms are thick and contain three large blades which it uses as its fingers. The middle blade contains two smaller blades on top. On its knees, halfway down its arm, and just behind where its forehead meets its face, are small red dots.
Excadrill is a dark-colored, bipedal mole-like Pokémon. It has a tapered, pink-tipped snout and a white face. It has large, gray-colored, jagged features on its head and forelimbs, which may be described as looking like axes. Excadrill sports red diamond patterning on the side of its head, forelimbs, and legs, and larger, stripe-like patterns of red on its underside. It has folds on the back of its neck, resembling a hood.


====Gender differences====
Excadrill can straighten its entire body, allowing it to spin like a drill. It has the ability to cut through iron and steel plating. It uses its excellent digging abilities to build complex tunnels as its nest at more than {{tt|300 feet|91 meters}} below the surface. Its tunneling can be both beneficial and harmful to humans, as it can help workers with its swift digging prowess, but it can be detrimental to underground structures, like Subway tunnels.
None.
 
===Special abilities===

Excadrill create maze-like burrows 100 meters underground and also open holes in subway tunnels. It puts a lot of effort into constructing its tunnels. As seen in ''[[BW066|Baffling the Bouffalant!]]'', Excadrill tend to drop down on all fours to eat comfortably. <!--think: dog eating-->
