Diggersby is a very niche option among the plethora of wallbreakers in the tier. It offers a solid typing that gives it an immunity to both Ghost- and Electric-type attacks, allowing it to come in on common attacks like Shadow Ball from Dragapult or Aegislash and Volt Switch from Rotom-H. It has access to priority in Quick Attack, which allows it to revenge kill weakened threats like Zeraora, Hydreigon, and Kyurem. Fire Punch most notably hits Corviknight but also takes out Ferrothorn. It should be noted that Diggersby is very prediction reliant because Pokemon immune to either of its STAB attacks are quite common, but it is generally able to do tremendous damage if you predict properly.

Because Diggersby is capable of blowing holes in the opposing team, late-game cleaners like Dragapult and Zeraora pair well with it. Diggersby is vulnerable to being revenge killed by threats like Dragapult, Hydreigon, Conkeldurr, Terrakion, and Kyurem, which makes Fairy-types like Clefable and Sylveon excellent teammates. They are also able to provide Wish support, which Diggersby appreciates. Pivots like Corviknight, Rotom-H, and Mandibuzz are also solid partners, since they are capable of bringing in Diggersby with U-turn or Volt Switch.

While not the most prominent threat, Diggersby has a niche over other wallbreakers thanks to its great unique typing, which gives it an immunity to both Ghost- and Electric-type attacks. Instead of dancing around it, just say that Diggersby is a super niche wallbreaker. It may also be worth slightly elaborating on why its immunity to Ghost- and Electric-type attacks is relevant. It has access to priority in Quick Attack, which allows it to revenge kill weakened threats like Zeraora, Dugtrio, Hydreigon, and Conkeldurr. Dugtrio isn't that important to revenge kill considering its limitations after trapping a Pokemon. I also reckon there's a better example than Conkeldurr you could use, as it's never really going to be weakened enough into range from Quick Attack, Kyurem would probably be a better example. Fire Punch most notably hits Corviknight but also takes out Ferrothorn. It should be noted that Diggersby is very prediction-reliant since immunities to either of its STABs are quite common, but it is generally able to do tremendous damage if you get it right.

Because Diggersby is capable of blowing holes in the opposing team, late-game cleaners like Dragapult and Zeraora pair well with it. Diggersby is prone to being revenge killed by threats like Dragapult, Hydreigon, Conkeldurr, Terrakion, and Kyurem, which makes Fairy-types like Clefable and Sylveon excellent teammates. They are also able to provide Wish support, which Diggersby appreciates. Pivots like Corviknight, Rotom-H, and Mandibuzz are also solid partners since they are capable of bringing in Diggersby with U-turn or Volt Switch.

maybe mention the Pokemon Diggersby can pivot into (that are using the moves you listed) just to put it into perspective a bit better? otherwise this is fine for qc 2/2

Diggersby is a very niche option among the plethora of wallbreakers in the tier. It offers a solid unique (this word is very dangerous to use) typing that gives it an immunity to both Ghost- and Electric-type attacks, allowing it to come in on common attacks like Shadow Ball from Dragapult or Aegislash and Volt Switch from Rotom-H (Rotom implies the base forme, and the other two viable formes doink on Diggersby). It has access to priority in Quick Attack, which allows it to revenge kill weakened threats like Zeraora, Hydreigon, and Kyurem. Fire Punch most notably hits Corviknight but also takes out Ferrothorn. It should be noted that Diggersby is very prediction reliant(RH) since immunities because Pokemon immune to either of its STABs STAB attacks are quite common, but it is generally able to do tremendous damage if you get it right predict properly.

Because Diggersby is capable of blowing holes in the opposing team, late-game cleaners like Dragapult and Zeraora pair well with it.

Pivots like Corviknight, Rotom-H, and Mandibuzz are also solid partners,(AC) since they are capable of bringing in Diggersby with U-turn or Volt Switch.
