Trivia
- Drilbur was revealed on Oha Suta on June 27, 2010. It was officially revealed on the September issue of Coro Coro on August 8, 2010.
- Drilbur and its evolved form are currently the only mole-type Pokémon to surface since Diglett and Dugtrio, the original mole Pokémon, don't surface their entire bodies.
- Its name, when combined with its evolved form creates Excalibur, which is most likely a reference to its sword-like claws.
Origin
Drilbur is based on a mole.
Etymology
Drilbur's English name (which is the same in Spanish and Italian) is likely a combination of "drill" and "burrow".
Moguryū is likely a portmanteau of 土竜 (mogura, mole), "screw" (referring to its drill-like behavior), and 竜 (ryū, dragon, the second kanji in 土竜).
Rototaupe, its French name, is a portmanteau of "rotation" and "taupe" (French for "mole").
Rotomurf, its German name, is a portmanteau of "rotation" and "Maulwurf" (German for "mole").
Dudeoryu, its Korean name, is a portmanteau of 두더지 (dudeogi, mole) and "screw."
Luódīngdìshǔ, its Mandarin Chinese name, is a portmanteau of 螺釘 (luódīng, screw), 地 (dì, ground), and 地鼠 (dìshǔ, mole).
