Either im blind, or he doesent

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

And even then, i doubt it would really be that effective with such a distance

 

[Landon_Avery]

Egg move's are aloud too.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

True, but still, i very much doubt that it would be as effective in a long range fight that gaara can do, and gaara would go all out here too

Okay, well, this is a thing. Anyway, there are a few reasons why I think Gaara could beat a Diglett. Most of Diglett's attacks will not be able to get past Gaara's Sand Shield, and his terrarian attacks like Fissure or Earthquake, even though it does have a wide AoE, Gaara will probably avoid that too by leaping into the air or something, as a ninja do. Not even Sucker Punch will be able to do much, because even if it does get past Gaara's precognitive Sand Shield, it would take a lot more than that to get past his Sand Armor. And while Diglett does have access to other status moves like Toxic or Swagger, I don't see Toxic getting past the sand, and the sand does a lot of the attacking automatically, not Gaara, so using Swagger would only hinder Diglett in the long run by boosting Gaara's offensive power.

And then there's Diglett's size to consider. He is one of the smallest Pokémon in existence, and it really would not be too hard for Gaara to catch Diglett and crush him in a Sand Burial. The only advantage I can really see Diglett having is the fact that he can hide underground, but with Gaara's Third Eye in effect, I really doubt Diglett could hide very long. In a battle between these two Sand Manipulators, Diglett is just plain outmatched here.

Winner: Gaara

Gaara can pseudo fly as shown with kimimaru

Well, there we go, then! Another reason why Gaara wins.

 

[Landon_Avery]

Should I just change Diglett out with something else, like Gible?

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

There is no need this aint a stomp or anything

Endure if Gaara catches him in Sand Burial folowed by a full power Reversal

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Neither 9f thoese have the range that gaara does, Endure has a limit in use, and again, revelsal is a phisical attack

And thats assuming diglet automaticly chooses the right thing to do

Gaara has been shown to grind up rocks and nearby earth to create more sand. Diglett would just be adding more fire to the flames.
