Dunsparce (Japanese: ノコッチ, Hepburn: Nokotchi) (DUN-sparce[1]) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
Biology[]
Physiology[]
Dunsparce is a serpentine Pokémon. Its body is primarily yellow in color with blue stripes and underbelly. Its eyes appear dull, and it has two blue prongs on its blue chin. It has two small white wings on its back. Its tail is shaped like a drill.
Behavior[]
Dunsparce are troglobites, living out their entire lives in pitch-black caves (some populations are confirmed to be trogloxines, sometimes venturing outside their caverns). They are very nearly blind, using the two protrusions on the undersides of their lower jaws to feel their way around in total darkness. When threatened, they will burrow backwards into the earth using their drill-like tails. Dunsparce form very intricate subterranean nests, living in in colonies (called “broods”) numbering in the hundreds.
Predators who are able to follow Dunsparce down their holes as they burrow to escape will be met with near-inescapable mazes of intersecting tunnels; Dunsparce themselves can navigate their labyrinths using their excellent senses of smell. In some regions, they even cohabitate peacefully with Diglett and share their tunnel networks. Dunsparce also have pairs of vestigial wing growths located on their backs. Though they are very weak, Dunsparce can be trained to float a few centimeters off the ground for several seconds by flapping these growths furiously. However, they are unable to actually take off and fly in the air, and are normally left very exhausted by the sheer effort required to even lift slightly off of the ground.
Natural Abilities[]
It can levitate very slightly with its wings, though it prefers to dig to escape. Its nests are maze-like, but it can navigate through them easily without getting distracted by the smell of dirt.
Evolution[]
Dunsparce can evolve into Dudunsparce by levelling up with Hyper Drill.

Trivia[]
- Despite being portrayed as small in the anime, the Pokédex says that it is about the same size as Salamence.
- Dunsparce is similar to Noko from Yo-Kai Watch in several ways:
- Both are based on the Tsuchinoko.
- Both are primarily yellow.
- Both specialise in earth attacks.
- Ash had tried twice to catch Dusnparce.
- The first time was in BW133: The Path That Leads to Goodbye!, which was due to Iris' Axew colliding with Pikachu allowing the land snake Pokémon to escape.
- The secon time was XY061:_Under_the_Pledging_Tree!, but it was due to having a lack of poke balls.
Origin[]
Dunsparce is based on the Japanese cryptid Tsuchinoko, a thick-bodied snake. The Tsuchinoko is also sometimes referred to as the "bee snake" in some regions, thus it has bee-like aspects such as a stinger-like tail, wings, and a striped back. Its closed eyes and habit of living in caves or underground may reference different cave-dwelling animals that sometimes lack the need for sight upon living in dark environments. It may also be based on the Amphiptere, a creature that takes the appearance of a yellow snake with feathered wings and an arrow-tipped tail.
Etymology[]
Dunsparce is a combination of "dun" a shade of yellow, "dunce" a name for a dumb person and "sparse" which means rare.
Nokotchi is an anagram of Tsuchinoko (In Japanese, the "tsu" becomes the "t" before the "c" in "chi").
