Just like with other materials like Kricketot Shells, you will need to track down the pokémon associated with the material which means that Diglett Dirt obviously comes from Diglett. Diglett isn’t the most common pokémon at the beginning of the game, but you can find it in a few locations. Remember that Diglett likes to go underground and can often be tough to encounter.

There are a few locations where you can find Diglett at the start of the game. Shortly after falling down the cliff, you will enter a cave. You can find Diglett inside the cave in Southern Province Area One. After the tutorial, you can locate this pokémon around the olive fields in Southern Province Area Two. There are more locations around the map that you will come across as you progress through the game. Diglett likes that shade so make sure to search in darker areas like around trees. When you approach a Diglett, it may run away or move underground.
