Diggersby (#660) is a Normal/Ground-type Pokémon from the Kalos region (Generation 6) in Pokémon GO. With a maximum CP of 1,726 at Level 50 with perfect 15/15/15 IVs, Diggersby has its niche uses in certain battle scenarios. This complete guide covers the best moveset, PvP analysis, raid counters, evolution, and shiny availability for Diggersby in 2026.
Diggersby's Attack stat is 112 (Below Average). The lower Attack stat means Diggersby may compensate with bulk or utility.
With 155 Defense (Good) and 198 Stamina (Excellent), the total stat product is 465. This gives Diggersby reasonable durability in battle. Compared to other Normal-type Pokémon, Diggersby's stat distribution favors defense.
The best moveset for Diggersby depends on whether you use it for raids, gyms, or PvP. For raids, use Mud Shot (Fast) with Dig (Charged) for maximum DPS. This takes advantage of STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) which provides a 20% damage boost for matching-type moves.
For PvP (GO Battle League), energy generation and coverage matter more than raw DPS. Diggersby has 2 Fast Attacks and 5 Charged Attacks to choose from.
In Great League, Diggersby can be a viable pick. For Great League, lower Attack IVs (like 0/15/15) are preferred to maximize stat product under 1500 CP. The Normal/Ground typing provides useful matchups against Ghost, Electric, Poison-type threats while being weak to Fighting, Water, Grass types.
In Master League, Diggersby faces tough competition from Pokémon with higher CP caps. It is better suited for capped leagues.
As a raid attacker, Diggersby's effectiveness depends on its typing and 112 Attack stat. It may not be the top raid choice but contributes in the right conditions. Best counters against Diggersby use Fighting, Water-type moves.
Diggersby can be found in the wild, hatched from Eggs, obtained through Research tasks, and during events. In Partly Cloudy weather, it receives a spawn boost. The buddy distance is 1km per candy — use Pinap Berries for double candy when catching.

Tip: For PvP, check IV spreads before evolving (low Attack, high Defense/Stamina). For raids, aim for 15/15/15 perfect IVs.
