dugtrio-alola

Dugtrio Alola is a Ground/Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

Type: Ground / Steel

Abilities:

• Sand Veil: Increases evasion in a sandstorm.
• Tangling Hair (Hidden Ability): Lowers the Speed stat of any attacker that makes direct contact.

Physical Characteristics:

• Dugtrio Alola features three heads peeking out from the ground, similar to its Kanto counterpart, but with distinct long, flowing blonde hair that resembles a surfer's or a wig.
• Each head has a pink, round nose and beady eyes, giving it a more whimsical appearance than the original Dugtrio.
• The hair acts as a defense mechanism, made of steel-like filaments that can cut and entangle foes.

Behavior and Habitat:

• Dugtrio Alola is typically found in the volcanic regions of Alola, thriving in the warm, sandy soils.
• It is known to dig elaborate tunnels underground, contributing to the natural geothermal activity by redistributing the soil.
• This variant is more social than the regular Dugtrio, often seen in groups and displaying communal behavior.

In Battle:

• Dugtrio Alola is known for its high Speed and decent Attack, making it a swift physical attacker.
• Signature moves include Iron Head and Earthquake, which take advantage of its dual typing.
• It excels against Electric, Rock, and Fairy types due to its Steel and Ground attributes.
• However, it is weak against Water, Fire, Fighting, and Ground types, requiring strategic play to overcome these weaknesses.

Evolution:

• Dugtrio Alola evolves from Alolan Diglett starting at level 26.
• Unlike its Kanto counterpart, Alolan Diglett has adapted to the unique environment of Alola, resulting in its distinct appearance and typing upon evolution.

Interesting Facts:

• The long hair of Dugtrio Alola is inspired by the Pele's hair, a type of volcanic glass, symbolizing its connection to the volcanic regions of Alola.
• Despite its glamorous hair, Dugtrio Alola is highly sensitive to its surroundings and will retreat underground at signs of danger.
• Its appearance is a nod to the cultural influence of beach and surf culture prevalent in the Alola region, which is based on Hawaii.
