'''Dunsparce''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ノコッチ''' ''Nokocchi'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.  
}}
'''Dunsparce''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ノコッチ''' ''Nokocchi'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].


It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Dudunsparce}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Hyper Drill}}.


==Biology==
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.
===Physiology===
Dunsparce are pale yellow, {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with serpentine bodies|serpentine}} Pokémon with two small, white-colored wings that are capable of lifting the Pokémon a few inches off the ground. They also possess a drill on the end of their tail, which resembles a rattlesnake's rattle, and is used for digging. Besides their main pale yellow coloration, they have accentuations of blue, such as the ring patterning encircling their eyes, the thick stripes on the pattern on their back, and their underside. They also have beige accentuations, such as their eyelids and back. Dunsparce's eyes seem perpetually closed and goggle-like in appearance, and there are pointed prongs on the underside of their chin.  


====Gender differences====
(Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]] for more details.)
None.


===Special abilities===
==Biology==
At first glance, these Pokémon appear plain. However, Dunsparce make themselves quite elusive.
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.


They also are able to dig extremely well and fly a little using their small wings.
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.


===Behavior===
Dunsparce and its evolved form, {{p|Dudunsparce}}, are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Hyper Drill}}.
Dunsparce are extremely shy of human beings and rarely ever make themselves known. However, they are known to [[Pokémon outbreak|swarm]] on random occasions.


===Habitat===
===Evolution===
[[File:Cave Habitat.png|thumb|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Dunsparce evolves into {{p|Dudunsparce}}.
Dunsparce prefer to live in caves, forests, and large wide open spaces.


===Diet===

* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]]: {{mdc|Dunsparce|gti}} is a supporting character throughout the game.
[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]]: Dunsparce is a supporting character throughout the game. His best friend is {{p|Emolga}}. He is known to be a coward but despite that, he goes off into dungeons without his friend's consent. Dunsparce first appears as a client on the request board who needs to be rescued from [[Stompstump Peak]]. The partner and partner give a crystal they found while in the dungeon to him. When {{p|Virizion}} arrives into town, he uses the crystal as a proposal for Virizion to be his friend. Virizion refuses, and Dunsparce flees. Two {{p|Pawniard}} appear saying that they can help him become stronger when in reality they just want to rip him off of everything he's got. Dunsparce buys into their scam and they head off into the [[Desolate Canyon]] dungeon together. The player and partner follow. When they get to a clearing, Dunsparce realizes that something isn't right and tries to flee but Pawniard trap him and make demands. The player and partner arrive just in time. Panwiard, realizing that they are outmatched and outnumbered call upon two {{p|Galvantula}} and {{p|Venipede}} to back them up. When looks like it is the end for the team, {{p|Emolga}}, {{p|Gurdurr}}, {{p|Timburr}}, and Virizion all suddenly arrive and with their help they defeat the gang who then flees further into the canyon. It is after this heroic feat that Dunsparce and his friend Emolga decide to join the player and partner's exploration team and are accepted as the first two members. When {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} arrive in Post Town and explain their mission, the player, partner, and friends decide they want to help. {{p|Quagsire}} says that one of them will have to stay behind because it is a rule of HAPPI. After {{p|Scraggy}} makes a suggestion that the weakest member should stay behind, Dunsparce gets worried that he might be the one who ends up staying behind. The night before the expedition, Dunsparce takes time to reflect on top of the hill in Post Town, when Virizion suddenly comes up to it. Dunsparce tells Virizion it's goals and the two have a heart to heart conversation. The next morning, Virizion volunteers to stay behind. It, Emolga, and the player and partner become upset with the decision and Emolga decides that the only way they can be fair is to draw straws. The next day, the team draws straws and whoever gets the shortest one ends up staying behind. Thinking that he influenced Virizion's decision to stay behind, Dunsparce voluenteers to be the one to stay back in Pokémon Paradise. As they are about to depart via the Magnagate, Dunsparce and the team say their farewells and Emolga decides that Dunsparce should go and pushes him into the Magnagate and stays behind willingly. After getting teleported to the front entrance to [[Telluric Path]], Dunsparce regrets that Emolga can't go but decides to move forward and that Emolga wouldn't want him moping around. Early during their trek through the [[Glacier Palace]], Dunsparce comments that he is having trouble breathing. He decides to ignore the feeling and go on with this teammates. When the team gets deep into the palace and enters a long hallway, soon everyone begins to have trouble breathing and collapses. Only the player is unaffected and left to watch his comrades slowly dying. Thankfully, {{p|Kyurem}} foresaw their arrival and saves them from their fate. He says that the part of the palace they were in was surrounded by a mysterious energy and that not even Kyurem has been able to enter past there. Kyurem says that the rest of the palace is off limits and that they should turn back now, but not before rewarding them with its great treasure.

===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>


===Evolution===
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}})

===Major appearances===
Dunsparce debuted in ''[[EP191|The Dunsparce Deception]]'', where an entire town was full of children owning Dunsparce. [[Bucky]] was the only child without a Dunsparce and asked {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} for assistance. In the end, he was able to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} one.
 
In ''[[BW131|The Path That Leads to Goodbye!]]'', Ash tried to catch a Dunsparce, but [[Iris's Axew]] bumped into [[Ash's Pikachu]], which led to Dunsparce escaping.
 
In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', Ash wanted to catch another Dunsparce, but was unable to, as he didn't have any [[Poké Ball]]s on hand at that moment, thus letting Dunsparce get away again.
 
===Minor appearances===
A Dunsparce appeared in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.
 
In ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'', a Dunsparce was trapped in an {{p|Ariados}}'s web.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Dunsparce is based on the mythical {{wp|tsuchinoko}}. Similar to Bigfoot or the Chupacabra, sightings and reports appear in Japanese media; however, hard evidence is always lacking. Tsuchinoko are 30&nbsp;cm to 80&nbsp;cm long, with a large head and poisonous fangs. Its body is thicker than its head and tail. The noises it makes resemble squeaks, chirps and snores. Unlike real snakes, which slither from side to side, a tsuchinoko wiggles ahead in a straight line. The tsuchinoko curls its body to leap through the air. Moreover, the fact that Dunsparce, a snake-like creature, has wings also brings to mind the motif of the {{wp|Feathered Serpent}}, a prominent deity or supernatural being in many Mesoamerican religions. In addition, Dunsparce shares some traits with {{wp|bumblebees}}, including their stripes, tiny wings, stinger-like tail, and the fact that they burrow into the ground. This may be a visual pun inspired by the name "bachi hebi" (literally "bee snake"), which the tsuchinoko is also known by.
{{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.  
 
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.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Dunsparce may be a combination of ''dun'' (''grayish yellow'' or ''gloomy'') and ''sparse'' (referring to its rarity).
Dunsparce may be a combination of ''dun'' (subadult mayfly; or dark/gloomy, referring to its preferred habitat) and ''sparse''.


Nokocchi is an anagram of つちのこ ''tsuchinoko'', a fabled snakelike creature.
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).
