Dig (Japanese: あなをほる Dig Hole) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.
Effect
Generation I
On the turn that Dig is selected, the user will dig underground, where the only attacks it can't avoid are Bide, Swift, and Transform. On the following turn, Dig will do damage, PP will be deducted from it, and it will count as the last move used. Once Dig is selected, the user won't be able to switch out until it is disrupted or fully executed.
If Dig is not fully executed, PP will not be deducted from it, and it will not count as the last move used. If the opponent uses Mirror Move during the turn that the user digs underground, Mirror Move will copy the move that the user executed immediately before using Dig (or fail if it can't).
Confusion and full paralysis will disrupt Dig. Additionally, if the user is fully paralyzed during the mostly-invulnerable turn of Dig, the mostly-invulnerable part will not be reset until the user switches out or fully executes Dig.
In Stadium, Dig will allow the user to avoid damage reversed by Bide. Full paralysis will reset the mostly-invulnerable part of Dig. Mirror Move will copy Dig on either of the turns it takes to execute.
Dig has a power of 100 in Generation I.
Generation II-III
In Generation II and III, the user can be hit with Earthquake, Magnitude, and Fissure during the semi-invulnerable turn, and will take double damage from Earthquake and Magnitude, unless, of course, they would take no damage otherwise. The user may also be hit underground if it was previously targeted by Lock-On or Mind Reader, then struck the following turn. Swift, Bide and Transform no longer hit on their own during the semi-invulnerable turn, and damage from Sandstorm and (in Generation III) Hail will not occur, regardless of the user's type.
Dig's power changed from 100 to 60 in these generations.
Generation IV
Dig's power changed from 60 to 80. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as Generation III.
Outside of battle
When used in a cave, the player is transported to the entrance (except in Generation I, where he is transported to the last used Pokémon Center). It cannot be used in buildings, and no Gym Badge is required in any generation.

Trivia
- As mentioned, if Earthquake or Fissure are used while the foe is digging, they will still miss if the foe is immune to Ground-type attacks. The Pokémon that can normally take advantage of this factor due to being of the Flying-type are Charizard, Ninjask, Gligar, Gliscor, Ledyba and Ledian. Vibrava, Flygon, Baltoy and Claydol can also avoid these moves via the Levitate ability. Shedinja can avoid them via the Wonder Guard Ability.
- Several Pokémon can also avoid these moves while using Dig via Magnet Rise, which makes the user immune to Ground-type moves. However, all Pokémon that can do this must learn Magnet Rise or Dig, or both, from a move tutor.
- Of the above Pokémon, four can learn Dig via level up from a previous evolutionary stage - Ninjask and Shedinja can learn Dig while Nincada, and Vibrava and Flygon can learn it while Trapinch.
- In Generation I, when Dig is used while standing on top of a Warp tile, the spinning animation upon using the move is much shorter than normal. This is most likely a glitch.
