Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Black / X / Omega Ruby | It can help in tunnel construction. Its drill has evolved into steel strong enough to bore through iron plates. |
| White / Y / Alpha Sapphire | More than 300 feet below the surface, they build mazelike nests. Their activity can be destructive to subway tunnels. |
| Black 2 / White 2 | Forming a drill with its steel claws and head, it can bore through a steel plate, no matter how thick it is. |

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
