Dorulumon is one of the main characters in Digimon Xros Wars, an offical member of Taiki's team, Xros Heart.

Descrption
Dorulumon is a Beast Digimon whose name and design are derived from the Drill and the onomatopoeia for a wolf's growl (ガルルル). It is a faithful Digimon with a chivalrous spirit. As it usually sticks to the rock-covered mountains, it often acts alone without flocking with others. The drill on its head is a hardened portion of its hair. It runs over the ground at high speeds and uses "Hit and Away" tactics as its favorite strategy, deranging the opponent by inflicting a single blow, and since Dorulumon can cope against both ground-based and aerial enemies, it can certainly be said to be an all-rounder warrior. Also, Dorulumon is able to fire its "Dorulu Cannon" in collaboration with another Digimon by changing into its "Bombardment Mode" (砲撃形態).

DigiXrossed with the Starmons, his tail becomes the Elite Star which Starmon and the silver Pickmons arrange themselves into helicopter blades and attach to Dorulumon's tail.


 * Attacks
 * Drill Buster: Rotates the drill on his head and then shoots it with unerring accuracy.
 * Dorulu Tornado: Enlarges the drill on his tail and then raises a tornado, threatening both ground-based and aerial opponents.
 * Drill Blader: Rides the drill on his tail and spins himself, striking the opponent with his body until it is pulverized.

Appearence
Originally a member of the Bagra Army, Dorulumon helped destroy and enslave countless Zones as Tactimon's right-hand man until his superior orders a raid that decimate the Zone they're attacking with their own forces caught in the crossfire. Managing to only save BlueMeramon, Dorulumon leaves the army and gains a traveling companion in Cutemon. While Dorulumon is first introduced in the second episode, saving Cutemon and Akari from a Coelamon, he doesn't make a major appearance until the next when he DigiXros' with Shoutmon and Ballistamon to form Shoutmon X3. Although he leaves shortly after beating MadLeomon, Dorulumon ends up helping Team Xros Heart again at both the Island and Magma Zones. Though offered a place in the group, Dorulumon turns down before Tactimon reveals Dorulumon's past. But as Taiki still trusts him, and to honor BlueMeramon, Dorulumon joins Xros Heart.

Dorulu Cannon
Dorulumon's "Bombardment Mode" (砲撃形態) and greatest Special Move. Because Dorulumon must concentrate on charging the energy, the cooperation of Shoutmon to take charge of sighting is essential in order to hit the target. Furthermore, while charging the energy, Dorulumon's defensive power goes down to zero, leaving it completely defenseless. It becomes absolutely essential at this time to have Shoutmon's aid in guarding it, and it can be said that this great technique can only be used when it has absolute trust in its partner.
