• Used By: Ankylosaurus (both)
• Debut: Dino Snore!
  • Used In: 9, 73
• Used to Defeat (first Ankylosaurus): None
• Used to Defeat (second Ankylosaurus): Tank
• Effect: Burrow underground and strike your opponent from below! The first Ankylosaurus let itself be forced underground to hide the fact it was about to use the Move, but Foolscap's simply dove underground like in the arcade game.
• Other: It was inside Ankylosaurus' Dinosaur Card Capsule and activated by the same dirt it was. Though not defeating Tank, it dealt most of the damage before the first Ankylosaurus finished her with several tail club hits. It was later claimed by Rex. Foolscap later used another copy to defeat Tank directly.

• Mole Attack was the first Earth Move to be used in the anime and the only first Move of its Element that was not used by the main dinosaur of its Element (or to be one of the After-effect Moves).
