Pusurimon (プスリモン) is a Lesser Digimon in the Digimon franchise. It is a quadrupedal Digimon with yellow spines growing from its back. Pusurimon is always running around energetically, though it will sometimes appear to stop in its tracks, when in reality, it has just fallen asleep on the spot. Its signature move is "Chikuchiku Rolling," where it causes the fur covering its body to stand and harden, then curls itself into a ball and performs a jump-tackle while spinning. Pusurimon first debuted in 1997. Its name, "Pusu," comes from the onomatopoeia "pusupusu," meaning "pricking something." In the anime *Digimon Adventure:*, Pusurimon is among the Digimon fleeing from a rampaging Digimon and is seen in various scenes, such as eating alongside other Digimon like Lunamon. It is also a partner Digimon in the game *Digimon ReArise*, evolving from Pusumon and able to evolve into Herissmon. Pusurimon's official romanization is "Pusurimon."
