But what if I made an animal handling check to tame it at first?

I don’t have a mini my self but i would bet good money that a bear mini painted properly would work

poop

cool

im using this as a pc named Orlando  but it will walk on 2 legs and carry a big axe 

yessssssss

My DM pointed out after session that there is no saving throw for the dig action. So they make good suprise attack animals when you summon them from the bag of tricks.

 The digging is a movement type. There's no saving throw for what, them digging under you and you falling in? I'm not making a dig at you or your dm, but that sounds like some homebrew stuff that I wouldn't use. I think using the basic rules, this creature doesn't actually create a tunnel and even if it did, there's no practical way to use it in combat other than leaving pit traps, that I imagine would have a saving throw. It can only dig 10 feet on a turn or 20 if it uses it's action to "dash" (dirt dash?).

Someone should do a honey badger variant... Imagine the chaos it would bring. Probably double or even triple the health, AC of 15, same attacks though the bite is 3d6 + 3 and the claws are 2d6 + 3. With the ability to make the opponent go prone on a 14 

I use this stat block as a base for my baby Bulette haha

It is sad they don't have honey badgers or Wolverines in official source books. No natural armor for a badger kinda sucks 😮‍💨

Depending on how you use this beast as a beastmaster, it can become one of the most profitable mining drillinging way. Any gnomish or dwarven beastmaster would like this as their companion.

 Yeah, so things seem to have changed a bit and I can not find a beast with "tunneler" as a trait. I swear that blue dragons had that trait and their descriptions still say that the carve tunnels with their breath and burrowing but the only place I can find 'tunneler' is with the purple worm. There are also some homebrew camel spiders that are listed as beasts rather than monstrosities for some reason but I am looking for something that can burrow (preferably through stone) and leave a tunnel behind it.  

     Are there any creatures (beasts) that polymorph can help you burrow and leave a tunnel ? Or is this dependent on true polymorph and using Sapphire Dragon or some such ?

I use this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3311289/files and scaled it 150% before I printed it. 

When a beast's name is Giant whatever, what does that mean exactly. There's no size information on any of these. How Giant is giant? Is there a quick equation like if a normal rat, for example, is 1 foot a giant rat is 3 feet. So just multiple the regular size by 3?

this creature can be realy usefull for Polymorph and Druids if you realy need to dig a tunnel somewhere. 10feet*6*60min = 3600 feet/h. thats a lot of tunnel.

you may need to duck in the tunnel but hey its a giant badger so its medium sized it should work for a party to follow.

 For that you want to be a Cave Badger.  Giant Badger doesn't leave a usable tunnel, but the Cave Badger does - it's basically just a better G.Badger (better AC and burrow speed, plus the tunnel).

 I find that a very interesting way to use . I wonder if my party Droid will use that.

I really like this as a transform as a druid
