Revealed: This Pokémon, along with a slew of others, was initially revealed within leaked CoroCoro scans on October 11th. It was later revealed internationally by Pokémon.com on October 16th.

Additional Info: Diggersby uses its large ears to dig holes in the ground. The ears are powerful excavators that can easily shift heavy stones. With their excellent digging skills, these Pokémon even help out construction sites!

X: With their powerful ears, they can heft boulders of a ton or more with ease. They can be a big help at construction sites.
Y: As powerful as an excavator, its ears can reduce dense bedrock to rubble. When it's finished digging, it lounges lazily.

Proof that this Pokémon is amazing:

This pokemon's face just creeps me out.

I used one in a replay of pokemon Y, he was great

I used to hate Diggersby until I got one in a Wondertrade at like Lv.87ish, and I said to myself "Wow, why would anyone level up a monster like that?"
After like a week of testing it out, I kind of liked it, not even that, I loved it. The move set was perfect, and it needed to get some cuddling from me.
I have the same one now on my backup competitive team.

I use a timid Latias and throw up screens to make up for Diggersby's (tho) lacking defense. Set up an SD, and w/life orb equipped, it's a wrap.

The true dig rat

"Diggersby tho?"- shofu

Looks a bit odd, but if it can help out at construction sites, I guess appearance really doesn't matter.
