Pokédex Entry: Almost as universal a creature as Ylf, Ploworm are found anywhere there is vegetation and soil. They are not competent fighters, though they aspire to grow into their much stronger evolved forms, Lumbrill.

A small little worm-like grub with a soft-ish looking middle body dark grey pink in colour. Its tail and head are more steel cream coloured, while a red x sits near where the eyes would be. There's a point on their head and under it is a black tooth like appendage. The fleshy and squishy parts of it, although soft, can actually protect it from heat that comes from magma pockets. While the tooth on its head is akin to a shovel, because of its size it digs rather slowly.


Etymology: Ploworm is a combination of the words plow and worm.
Gender Differences: None.
Special Abilities: It can survive in extreme pressure environments because of their hardened shell.
Behavior: It plows through the earth, using the large tooth on its head. Finding places to borrow itself, during rainy season it digs down, because of its dislike and weakness to the rain. Because of its armor, its seen in high temperature and extreme areas such as tar pits and scorching deserts.
Habitat: Underground, often near deserts or dry earth. Sometimes more fertile soil, such as near volcanoes and tar pits.
Diet: They eat waste products, such as dead leaves and other such organic material present in the dirt.
