The Picky mole is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest X. It is a relative of the Mischievous mole that has traded in its familiar shovel and wields a mattock instead.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Picky moles are bipedal anthropomorphic moles with a coat of whitish grey fur and wearing a pair of dark red gloves. In their left hands, they wield a mattock, a type of hand tool similar to a pickaxe that is used for digging, prying, and chopping. They build up their Tension in battle before performing powerful striking attacks with their mattocks. According to their monster description in X, the picky moles are masters of tunnel construction that have dug countless caves.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Dragon Quest X [edit | edit source]

Picky moles began appearing in Version 2.1 of the game, being stronger than both their mischievous and mad cousins. They are able to psyche themselves up to increase their Tension, building up their levels to high amounts when they become enraged.

Dragon Quest Rivals[edit | edit source]

Picky mole appeared in the second true card pack, "And Thus Into Legend..." after the game's name changed to Rivals Ace as a super rare card exclusive for Martial Artist leaders.
