- Swords Dance

- Quick Attack
Diggersby has developed a new set to circumvent Baneful Bunker Toxapex and other walls to take advantage of the bulkier builds currently running around the Monotype tier. By bluffing a Choice Band, Diggersby can set up with Swords Dance as Toxapex uses Baneful Bunker. This allows Diggersby to OHKO Pokemon such as Mandibuzz with Breakneck Blitz and Mega Sableye with Earthquake after a boost, making it extremely threatening against defensive teams. Quick Attack paired with Swords Dance allows Diggersby to act as a late-game cleaner against offensive teams and pick off weakened threats such as Greninja. Diggersby also appreciates Porygon2 and Chansey's ability to come in and sponge any attack for it, and they appreciate its ability to break walls like Mega Venusaur that they struggle with in return. Ditto can copy setup sweepers that threaten Diggersby such as Mega Altaria, allowing it to act as a great sweeper against offensive teams.
