Diggersby in Pokemon Champions: Stats, Best Moveset & How to Get
Diggersby is a deceptively dangerous Normal/Ground attacker in Pokemon Champions whose entire identity rests on one ability: Huge Power, which doubles its Attack. A pedestrian 56 base Attack effectively becomes that of a top-tier physical threat, turning this unassuming rabbit into a hard-hitting Earthquake user. This guide covers Diggersby's stats, type matchups, best moveset, an SP spread, its role in Regulation M-A doubles, and how to get it.
Base Stats
On paper Diggersby's stats look mediocre — 85 HP, 56 Attack, 77/77 defenses and 78 Speed for a 423 BST. The trick is that Huge Power silently doubles that 56 Attack, so its real offensive output rivals dedicated sweepers while it keeps a usable bulk. The 78 Speed is the main limitation: it sits just below a lot of the format, which is why many builds either invest heavily in Speed or lean on priority and Trick Room.
| Form | HP | Atk | Def | SpA | SpD | Spe | BST |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diggersby | 85 | 56 | 77 | 50 | 77 | 78 | 423 |
Type Matchups
Abilities
- Pickup — occasionally recovers a used item; a minor utility ability with little competitive value in doubles.
- Cheek Pouch — restores extra HP when a Berry is eaten; situational with a pinch Berry but not a build-around.
- Huge Power — doubles Attack. This is the only ability worth running: it is what makes Diggersby a real threat instead of a filler.
Best Moveset
With Huge Power active, Diggersby just needs strong physical STAB and good coverage:
Huge Power physical attacker
- Earthquake — its hardest-hitting STAB and a spread move that pressures both opponents in doubles; mind your own grounded partner.
- High Horsepower — single-target Ground STAB for when you want to avoid hitting your ally.
- Quick Attack or Fire/Ice/Thunder Punch — coverage; the elemental punches handle Flying, Grass and Steel threats that wall Ground.
- Protect — doubles staple for scouting and surviving a turn.
Setup variant
- Swords Dance — on an already-doubled Attack, one boost makes Earthquake nearly unwallable.
- Bulk Up — Attack plus Defense if you want a more durable win condition.
Other tools in its learnset include Knock Off, U-turn, Superpower, Stone Edge, Rock Slide, Gunk Shot, Iron Head and Tera Blast.
Suggested SP Spread
With the Champions SP system (66 points, max 32 per stat), Diggersby wants Attack and Speed: pour points into Speed so it outruns the relevant tier, top up Attack, and use a Speed- or Attack-boosting Stat Alignment. On a Trick Room team, drop the Speed investment and dump everything into Attack and HP instead. Tune the exact Level 50 numbers in the PikaChampions team builder.
Competitive Role in Regulation M-A
Diggersby is a budget physical wallbreaker that punches far above its raw stats thanks to Huge Power. In Regulation M-A doubles its spread Earthquake is genuinely scary alongside Levitate, Flying or Air Balloon partners that dodge the splash damage. Its respectable 85/77/77 bulk means it can take a hit and still threaten a KO, and it appreciates Tailwind or Trick Room support to fix its middling Speed. Knock Off and U-turn give it pivoting and item-removal utility, so it doubles as a disruptive glue piece rather than a pure one-dimensional attacker.
