Diggersby (Japanese: ホルード Horūdo) is a dual-type Normal/Ground Pokémon.

It evolves from Bunnelby starting at level 20.

Biology

Diggersby is a bipedal Pokémon resembling a large, portly rabbit.

Diggerby's most remarkable features are its two ears, which are each crowned with a massive, muscular forearm, complete with three-fingered paws. The ears are furry and mostly grey in coloration, with a pink inner pinna, whereas the paws at the ends of the ears are brown. Three spots of brown fur surround each of the ear-wrists. A pointed protrusion marks the outer elbow, hinting at the presence of bones inside the ear-forearms. These ears are strong enough to lift objects weighing over a ton and prove to be an invaluable asset in Diggersby's digging.

The other four limbs growing from Diggersby's round, grey torso are small in comparison to the ears. The fur of the upper paws is white, while the feet are brown. A sash-like structure composed of thicker, wooly fur surrounds Diggersby's waist. This sash is brown with a squared yellow segment on the front. Diggersby likes to keep its upper paws tucked into this sash.

Diggersby's face is dominated by a large brown muzzle, resembling what would be three-day stubble on a middle-aged human male. Two large front teeth protrude from its wide mouth and three whiskers decorate each cheek. Diggerby's eyes are perpetually squinting and it seems to favor a slightly furrowed brow.

In the TCG

Diggersby has not yet been featured in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
