| | Diglett is a tiny, brown Pokémon that seems to be perpetually buried within the earth, leaving only its {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon consisting of a head and a base|head}} visible. It has beady black eyes and a large, round, pink nose. A Diglett in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]] mentions that it has feet, though their size and appearance are unknown. |

| What Diglett looks like underground is a mystery, a fact that has sparked many fan interpretations over the years. The only thing known is that they have feet, as mentioned in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], although not even its friend {{p|Magnemite}} knew this until Diglett mentioned it. Based on its height and weight, it is unlikely that the part of Diglett which is hidden can be much bigger than the portion that is visible.
| | Diglett digs regularly through the earth at a shallow depth, leaving perfectly-tilled soil in its wake. It spends much of its time underground, and has very thin skin; if Diglett is exposed to sunlight, its blood will heat up, causing it to grow weak. The [[EP031|anime]] suggests that Diglett can pull its head underground at the speed of light. |

| ===Behavior===
| |
| It burrows through the ground at a shallow depth. It leaves raised earth in its wake, making it easy to spot. Diglett has very thin skin, and thus if Diglett is exposed to light its blood will heat up, causing it to grow weak. This could be why Diglett prefer dark places, sticking its head up only when the sun is not bright.
