About

Diglett has been around since the first generation of Pokemon. It’s entire body has never been revealed, leading to much debate as to what actually lies underground. Diglett uses moves like Scratch and Growl, but nobody even knows if it has claws or a mouth. It’s exploitable nature has lead many people to photoshop their own version of what Diglett really looks like.

In Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red/Blue Rescue Team, the main character talks to a Diglett who has just come down from a mountain. The Diglett comments that it’s feet felt strange from being so high up, baffling the other Pokemon.(“Feet?” “He has them? Feet?”)

The attack Seismic Toss throws the opponent into the air. So on a Dugtrio…well, Nintendo doesn’t give up any secrets with out a fight.

Origin

People have wondered about Diglett’s body ever since it appeared in Pokemon Red and Blue. It is assumed that the meme began with the release of the game, though proof remains elusive.

Note: Pokemon Red/Blue came out in America in 1998, six years before Google Trends can reach. Since Pokemon was more popular when the game was still new, research is difficult.

Examples would be appreciative. If there are none this will be deadpooled quickly.

Yeah, the only examples I’ve seen of this are the pictures that are already up. It’s just an exploitable.

Perhaps if you could find other examples of people exploiting the unknown, that might be labeled as a meme/notable internet phenomenon.

Until it has a fsjal, a sandwich guy, a weegee, a crasher squirrel, stars in ytp, has an advice dog variation, is featured in a compilation of memes from the last 10 years or on adult swim… just no. Diglett/Dugtrio !=meme to me.

First: I don’t know if this is a meme. I’ve seen a couple of these before.

@Rihk, let’s not judge a meme based upon what other memes it has been crossbred with. A good meme is something that can be applied to another subject.

Doin it rite?

This definition seems really loose. What exactly about diglett is picked at? Is this “meme” solely based on the fact that we don’t know what’s under the ground Diglett appears on?
Are there mutations, like perhaps a diglett being puppeted by the hollow in Bleach episode 8? (sorry, can’t think of anything else at the moment.) If not, I’d say this hardly qualifies as a meme. The pics are lulz-worthy, but no more.

Okay, well I’ve seen these images widespread over the internets. However, the only ones I’ve seen are the pictures listed here (well really only the dugtrio one and the buff diglett.) Perhaps they’re just mildly popular images?

@ Deuxime

No, actually there are more. I’m still just a bit too skeptical about this to add any images in here. Oh well, I’ll supply some anyways. Onto work…

Thanks Jostin!

Ya might want to consider a NSFW, that Dugtrio one is kind of disturbing.

And, if it can be captured, wouldn’t we be able to find out? O.o I’m confused now…

It would be great if you could find a proper origin for this meme (Who started it? Where/When did it first appear? Stuff like that) and if you gave us some sample sites where this meme appears (i.e. deviantART is an example of a site where this meme shows great prominence). This article still needs a lot of work.

+1 Work on it

@ Jack

Some of those pics you’ve uploaded don’t pertain to the meme at all, only the Pokemon character. The meme is all about predicting what the whole of Diglett looks like above ground.
