Dugtrio (disambiguation)
Dugtrio (ダグトリオ, Dagutorio) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.
Creature description
Dugtrio appears to be three somewhat larger copies of its earlier form, Diglett, always travelling together as one as if they are irrevocably joined somehow; what they look like underground is a big mystery. Pokédex entries claim, however, that these are actually triplets that emerged from one body; as a result, each triplet thinks exactly like the other two. Extremely powerful yet cooperative together, they can burrow over 60 MPH and burrow to a depth of over 60 miles below sea level underground, through even the hardest ground. The three heads bob up and down separately to loosen the soil nearby, making it easier for it to burrow. Its digging routine triggers huge earthquakes. In battle, it digs through the ground and strikes the unsuspecting foe from an unexpected direction.
In the Pokemon RPGs, it is a Ground-type species that while not quite as powerful or sturdy as other ground types, has an extremely high speed rating and a useful ability that prevents the opponent from switching his or her Pokemon.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Dugtrio is a Pokémon that appears on the Pokémon Stadium 2 stage when it transforms into the Ground Type level.
