Chapter 573 - 572: The Perfect Piece for a Sandstorm Team
After Excadrill moved forward for another ten minutes, it suddenly stopped.
Cain quickly signaled Drapion and Slowking to cease their actions.
Fortunately, by this time, Drapion had already been running with the assistance of Slowking's psychic powers, preventing any dust from being stirred up.
They hid at a certain distance.
The sand on the ground began to shift, and Excadrill emerged.
Its pink nose sniffed the air, as if searching for something.
Like moles, Excadrill has a very sharp sense of smell.
It quickly glanced around and, finding nothing suspicious, headed toward a rock.
As a Ground/Steel-type Pokémon, Excadrill has good resistances.
Although it is weak against Fighting, Ground, Fire, and Water types, it also resists Normal, Flying, Bug, Steel, Psychic, Dragon, and Fairy types twice as effectively. It has a quadruple resistance to Rock type and is immune to Poison and Electric-type moves.
In total, out of the 18 existing types, Excadrill resists or is immune to 10 of them.
