Palworld Digtoise Guide: Location, How to Catch, Skills & More

There are numerous Pals to gather in Palworld and Digtoise is one of the most skilled at collecting resources.

In Palworld, having a skilled miner is crucial as it allows players to obtain valuable crafting materials such as Ore and Coal. Among the community, Digtoise has become a highly sought-after Pal for this role due to its exceptional abilities in mining.

Where to find Digtoise in Palworld

Digtoise can be spotted in the primary desert regions of the Galapagos Islands. The most accessible one is located around the Anubis boss battle in the northwestern part of the starting area, known as the Twilight Dunes.

Alternatively, the Digtoise can be found at any time during the day or night in the locations near the Deep Sand Dunes Fast Travel point, which is located on the north side of the Dessicated Desert.

How to Catch It

Capturing Digtoise is a relatively simple task – all you need to do is gradually decrease its health and use Pal Spheres or Mega Spheres. We suggest avoiding the use of Higher quality Spheres on Distoise as it has a decent catch rate.

To ensure you are fully equipped to catch one, we recommend having a Grass-type Pal with you since Distoige is vulnerable to them. Some of the top Pals in the game, such as Mossanda and Robinquill, are especially effective choices.

Breeding Digtoise

To obtain a Digtoise, one can also breed two Pals together. Place the resulting Large Rocky Egg into an Egg Incubator on your Breeding farm and wait for the Digtoise to hatch.

The following breeding combos for Digtoise are among the most effective:

Mossanda + Tanzee
Mossanda + Flopie
Nox + Penking
Woolipop + Penking
Woolipop + Cinnamoth
Killamari + Nitewing
Melpaca + Arsox

Remember that you have the ability to breed multiple Digtoise, each with its own unique set of Passive Skills. This means you can continue to hatch eggs until you discover the perfect one that suits your needs.
