It | Sometime prior to the start of the series, Excadrill helped Clay with digging out and expanding the mine he was working on. It would eventually become the current form of the [[Driftveil Gym]]. It debuted in ''[[BW061|Battling the King of the Mines!]]'', where it was Clay's final Pokémon in his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}}. It first fought [[Ash's Snivy]] and was able to easily block all of Snivy's attacks with Rapid Spin before knocking her out with Horn Drill. Excadrill next fought [[Ash's Roggenrola]]. Roggenrola created a {{weather|Sandstorm}}, but this did no visible damage to Excadrill, as it is a {{2t|Ground|Steel}} Pokémon. | ||
Excadrill then used Drill Run underground, hitting Roggenrola multiple times by going in and out of the ground. Excadrill | Excadrill then used Drill Run underground, hitting Roggenrola multiple times by going in and out of the ground. Immediately after, Excadrill used its [[one-hit knockout move]] Horn Drill on Roggenrola, and while it sustained damage, Roggenrola endured it with its {{a|Sturdy}} [[Ability]]. It then evolved into a {{p|Boldore}}. Excadrill used Horn Drill again but was blocked by Sturdy once more, then it went for another Drill Run. Boldore caught this and used its red stones to communicate with Ash about its new move, Rock Blast. Using Rock Blast, Boldore was able to deal damage to Excadrill and knock it back. It then communicated its other new move Rock Smash, which it immediately used. Excadrill used Rock Smash as well, and whilst both were powerful, Boldore's Rock Smash overpowered Excadrill's, defeating the Subterrene Pokémon and winning Ash the {{badge|Quake}}. | ||
