Excadrill (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

}}

'''Excadrill''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドリュウズ''' ''Doryuzu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Steel}} Pokémon.

Excadrill has a dark brown body with diagonal, red splotches. Three markings are on its front, with two under each arm, and two on its back. It has 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, on either side of the bridge of the nose. Under them, on each side, are two thin, red stripes. A large blade roughly twice as large as its face extends from its forehead. The top of the blade contains two smaller blades, resembling fins. Its arms are thick and have three large blades instead of fingers, with two smaller blades on top of the middle ones. On its knees, halfway down its arm, and just behind where its forehead meets its face, are small red spots.

==In the anime==

{{TP|Iris|Excadrill}} debuted in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]'' under the ownership of {{an|Iris}}. It is a powerful Pokémon. When it first appeared, Excadrill was disobedient. However, in ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', the cause of the disobedience was discovered. When {{an|Iris}} battled [[Drayden]] with Excadrill, it was defeated by his {{p|Haxorus}}. The major loss changed him from an obedient and happy Pokémon to a disobedient one. After some training with Iris, Excadrill became obedient once again.
