Wormadam (Japanese: ミノマダム Minomadam) is a Bug-type Pokémon.

It has three different sub-types: Steel, Grass, and Ground, determined by where the Burmy it evolved from last battled. It is Grass if it last battled outside, Ground if it last battled in a cave, and Steel if it last battled in a building. Once a Burmy evolves into Wormadam, it cannot change types.
