Just progressed to Johto and after making my way thru the azeala tunnel, i am being prompted for pokemon to use dig. i have shovel in my inventory and this was working in Kanto. Am i missing something? headbutt is working with battering ram. Hope i just missing something, thank you!

for what its worth, dig spots are still working as expected

update - got thru goldenrod and found the tm vendor for dig in johto, shovel working again.

possibly would be helpful for a system text to explain you cant dig yet (like surf mounts tell you that you need fog badge) <3

Good day @Charterbus3

I am glad that your issue has been resolved.

Some out of battle techniques, such as dig, surf, cut, etc., require that regions gym progression to continue to be able to use. For example, the move Dig requires the 3rd badge in each respective region to be able to use (which translates also to the Shovel).

Also, feel free to make any improvement suggestions in the Suggestions section on the forums!

I hope this information finds you well and since your issue has been resolved, I will be closing this thread now.

If you have any further questions or concerns, do not hesitate to reach out.

Regards,

Bitterblade
