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 is likely a combination of "drill" and "burrow".

It's Japanese name, Mogurew, is likely a combination of 土竜 mogura, mole, and shrew, yet in Japanese it reads "dragon mole".
