Summary

Orthworm is a Steel-type Pokémon introduced in the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet games. It is modeled after an earthworm, giving it a unique and distinctive appearance that sets it apart from other Pokémon.

Type: Steel

Abilities: - Earth Eater: This signature ability gives Orthworm immunity to Ground-type moves, traditionally a weakness for Steel-types. Instead of taking damage from Ground-type moves, Orthworm restores HP, making it a highly strategic Pokémon in battles. - Hidden Ability (Sand Veil): Increases Orthworm's evasiveness during a sandstorm, providing additional protection by making it harder for opponents to land hits.

Interesting Facts: - Orthworm is distinguished by its segmented, metallic body which mirrors the physical traits of an actual earthworm, but with a hardened steel exterior. This combination of organic and metallic characteristics highlights its unique design. - Orthworm’s natural habitat is underground, where it is adept at burrowing through the soil. It
