'''Dunsparce''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: ノコッチ ''Nokocchi'') is a {{t|Normal}}-type Pokémon.
|generation=2
|friendship=70
}}
'''Dunsparce''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ノコッチ''' ''Nokocchi'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Dudunsparce}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Hyper Drill}}.
 
Dunsparce will evolve into one of two {{fd|Dudunsparce|forms}} of Dudunsparce, '''Two-Segment Form''' or '''Three-Segment Form''', with a 1/100 chance of evolving into Three-Segment Form Dudunsparce.


=Biology=
(Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for more details.)
==Physiology==
===Gender differences===
None.


===Special abilities===
==Biology==
==Behavior==
Dunsparce is a {{wp|snake|serpentine}}, and somewhat {{wp|insect|insectoid}}, {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a primarily yellow body, blue underside, and blue-and-cream-striped back. Its head is round with a wide mouth extending under its jowls and curving up toward the middle of its face. Its chin is blue with two rounded prongs. Its eyes—round and rimmed with blue—are kept closed, revealing its cream-colored eyelids. On Dunsparce's upper back are two tiny white wings. Its body ends in a drill-like tail.
==Habitat==
==Diet==
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''  


=In the anime=
Dunsparce can float slightly with its wings, which some scientists believe were used to fly in the sky during ancient times. However, it avoids detection and flees when spotted by burrowing into the ground with its tail. It lives immobile in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}} and beneath the earth, where it makes maze-like nests. They get along with {{p|Diglett}} and share tunnels with each other. Dunsparce can navigate through its nests without getting lost by the smell of the dirt.
Many Dunsparce appeared in the anime in ''[[EP191|The Dunsparce Deception]]''.


=In the manga=
Dunsparce and its evolved form, {{p|Dudunsparce}}, are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Hyper Drill}}.

===Evolution data===

The form of {{p|Dudunsparce}} that Dunsparce [[Evolution|evolves]] into is determined based on its [[personality value#Dudunsparce's form|encryption constant]], with a 99% chance of it evolving into the Two-Segment Form and a 1% chance of it evolving into the Three-Segment Form. This is not the case for [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] Dudunsparce (including those encountered in [[Tera Raid Battle]]s), as these will always be in Two-Segment Form regardless of their encryption constant value.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1596550660241039360 Encounter rates for Three-Segment Dudunsparce by Anubis/Sibuna_Switch on Twitter]</ref>
|- style="background: #{{normal color}};"
 
! Game
Since [[Nature]]s were determined via [[personality value]] prior to [[Generation V]] (which itself is indistinct from encryption constants prior to [[Generation VI]]), a Hardy Nature Dunsparce with the [[Ability]] {{a|Serene Grace}} that is [[transfer]]red from Generation {{gen|III}} or {{gen|IV}} to [[Generation IX]] will have a 50% chance of evolving into Three-Segment Form Dudunsparce, whereas Dunsparce from the same [[generation]]s with other Natures or the Ability {{a|Run Away}} will always evolve into the Two-Segment Form (unless a Dunsparce with Run Away came from {{pkmn|Colosseum}})

==Evolution==
===Origin===
{| border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="margin: auto;"
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Dunsparce}}
|-
Dunsparce appears to be based on the snake-like {{wp|Tsuchinoko}} cryptid of Japan. Visually, its design may be a pun on one of the cryptid's other names, バチヘビ ''bachi hebi'' (bee snake), as Dunsparce appears to combine bee- and snake-like features. It may draw specific inspiration from {{wp|Anthophorini|digger bees}}. Dunsparce may also have connections to {{wp|Amphiptere}}s, such as {{wp|Quetzalcoatl}}, or {{wp|flying snakes}}. Its tail appears to be based on a {{wp|drill}}, because it can use to dig itself underground. Visually (but not functionally) its drill resembles a {{wp|rattlesnake}}'s rattle, although this is probably a coincidence.

=Trivia=
Given its larviform appearance, horn-like tail, and ring-circled eyes that resemble the {{wp|Eyespot (mimicry)|eyespots}} of some species, Dunsparce may draw inspiration from {{wp|Sphingidae|sphinx moth caterpillars}}, which have a history of being mistaken for the Tsuchinoko. Its closed eyes likely reference the ocular {{wp|vestigiality}} demonstrated by many subterranean animals, though they may also nod to the Nozuchi, a creature thought to be synonymous with the Tsuchinoko that is sometimes depicted as a giant, eyeless caterpillar.
==Origin==
Dunsparce is based on the mythical tsuchinoko [[wp:snake|snake]].  Tsuchinoko are 30 cm to 80 cm long, with a large head and poisonous fangs. Its body is thicker than its head and tail.  The noises it makes resemble squeaks and chirps and snores.  Unlike the snake, which slithers from side to side, a tsuchinoko wiggles ahead in a straight line.  The tsuchinoko curls its body to leap through the air.


===Name origin===
====Name origin====
''ノコッチ'' comes from つちのこ ''[[wp:Tsuchinoko|tsuchinoko]]'', a fabled snake creature.  The letters are swapped to be のこっち.
Dunsparce may be a combination of ''dun'' (subadult mayfly; or dark/gloomy, referring to its preferred habitat) and ''sparse''.


''Dun'' can mean grayish yellow or gloomy, and ''sparse'' refers to rarity.
Nokocchi may be derived from an {{wp|anagram}} of ツチノコ, the katakana spelling of 槌の子 ''tsuchinoko'' (a fabled snake-like creature).
