Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Gurthwurm chomp through dirt and soil twice as fast as heavy machinery can move it. As they tunnel underground, they will eat literally anything that is buried in—or digging across—their path.

The stones set in a Gurthwurm's body are sensitive to vibration under the ground. The tunnels these Pokémon dig are massive, but they seem to sense structures and busy places above them and will avoid those areas to prevent collapse.
