It’s Dune! Look! They did Dune!

Orthworm is, unfortunately, rather emblematic of some of the rather mediocre new Pokémon introduced in SV. And while we don’t envy the job of trying to come up with 200 more imaginary creatures every three years, we hope we’d do better than, “Er, I guess an earthworm?”

Anyway, if a Pokémon is going to be so bland, then absolutely let’s celebrate it with a perfect movie reference. If only they were able to open their mouths and reveal rings of infinite teeth.

This is from the enigmatically named Okacheke, who has been designing excellent cards since Chilling Reign, including the very lovely Special Illustration Rare Penny from SV’s base set.
