Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

Red / Blue	Lives about one yard underground where it feeds on plant roots. It sometimes appears above ground.
Yellow	It prefers dark places. It spends most of its time underground, though it may pop up in caves.
Gold / HeartGold / Y	Its skin is very thin. If it is exposed to light, its blood heats up, causing it to grow weak.
Silver	If a DIGLETT DIGS through a field, it leaves the soil perfectly tilled and ideal for planting crops.
Crystal	It digs under ground and chews on tree roots, sticking its head out only when the sun isn't bright.
Ruby / Sapphire	DIGLETT are raised in most farms. The reason is simple - wherever this POKéMON burrows, the soil is left perfectly tilled for planting crops. This soil is made ideal for growing delicious vegetables.
Emerald	DIGLETT are raised in most farms. The reason is simple--wherever they burrow, the soil is left perfectly tilled for growing delicious crops.
FireRed	It burrows through the ground at a shallow depth. It leaves raised earth in its wake, making it easy to spot.
LeafGreen / X	Lives about one yard underground where it feeds on plant roots. It sometimes appears aboveground.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / White / Black 2 / White 2	A Pokémon that lives underground. Because of its dark habitat, it is repelled by bright sunlight.
SoulSilver	If a DIGLETT digs through a field, it leaves the soil perfectly tilled and ideal for planting crops.
Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire	Diglett are raised in most farms. The reason is simple— wherever this Pokémon burrows, the soil is left perfectly tilled for planting crops. This soil is made ideal for growing delicious vegetables.
Sun	It chews on plant roots underground. Farmers whose vegetables are vulnerable find it can be quite a pest.
Moon	Many farmers cherish and nurture Diglett because its droppings enrich the soil it lives in.
Ultra Sun	It travels through tunnels that it digs underground. It hates sunlight, so it comes out only after the sun goes down.
Ultra Moon	Around their crops, farmers plant the kind of tree that Diglett like to eat as a way of getting Diglett to plow the fields for them.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
