Native to many areas of Argeon, Plandmine is a cunning, spiteful Pokemon whose sadistic tendencies and explosive behaviors have led it to be known as the 'hidden terror'. Normally hidden underground to collect nutrients from the soil, one can just barely make out their black caps, half buried in the ground. If stepped on, Plandmine will take much joy in exploding itself, harming itself and others around it. This Selfdestructive behavior is the cause of many angry Trainers and even angrier Pokemon.

Plandmine's diets are extremely exclusive. Scattered about Argeon are berries that, when consumed, help Plandmine store a vicious cocktail of chemicals and catalysts within its body. These two elements can combine within the very top chamber of a Plandmine's stem, resulting in a fiery Explosion capable of scorching the environment within a radius of about 10 meters. Enemies should take care not to aim for Plandmine's stem, but instead its fragile fruit-like body.

Plandmine are not the top of their food chain, however. Enterprising Gligar and Gliscor take much delight in plucking these Eggplant Pokemon from the ground--and with their hardened defenses, they easily resist their prey's natural tendency to blow up. Nincada have also been known to nibble on Plandmine that have rooted themselves into the ground. Pineco often have scuffles with Plandmine over territory.

(Plandmine is based off of the common eggplant. Its Japanese name comes from the Japanese word for eggplant (nasu) and explode.)
