I cannot tell you every location but I can tell you dig is found in the fossil maniac's house just outside Fallbour( spell ) town.

Every week check the Mossdeep Space Center and go to the man in the white coat he will say 'rocket lauched sucess fully that was rocket number 3' or something like that. I was told when he says number 100 you can go into space to catch Deoys or Jirachi I don't believe this.

Go to Pacifilog once you have defeated the elite 4 and surf away from the current. There are rocks at the top of the screen surf along them eventually there will be an opening surf through it. You will enter a huge rock go inside and walk through it. You should come out infront of a huge building. This is Sky Pillar

I'm not sure how to get the TM for dig, but I do know that if you catch the Pokemon Numel, that sometimes has the move dig on it.

To get to the Sky Pillar fly to Pacifilog and surf right, stay to the left-handisde near the rocks. Keep following the rocks untill they open up onto a path of water, follow the path and eventually you will get to sky pillar.

Use an AR to get the HMs and TMs.
The Pokemon in the Sky Pillar is the very rare Rayquaza.

Cross the beach and enter the cave on the other side, then continue through untill you exit near a large tower-the Sky Pillar. You cannot get any items here (provided you don't have a pokemon with pickup), but there are pokemon here you cannot capture anywhere else. These are:
Mawhile-Steel (Ruby only)

A day or a week is as long as a day or a week in real life. And I already answered the Sky Pillar question farther down on this page.

To get to the sky pillar you have to beat the pokemon league and fly to pacifidilog and surf right go to the top follow the rocks until you see the opening oh and bring a mach bike there is a dragon pokemon called rayquazza level 70 good luck

!!Easy!!

Where the fossil maniac lives go to the door of the cave inside his house. You should see a little girl ask her and she should give tm dig.

To find all the TMs, you will need Pokemon Colleseum.

To find Dig, go to Fallarbor Town, and go into the Fossil Maniacs house. either talk to him (he's in the tunnel), or his son

To get to the Sky Pillar, you need to beat the Elite Four at least once. Go to Pacifidlog Town. Surf to the top (there'll be big rocks), and then just keep surfing right. Eventually, there will be an opening that you have to zig-zag through. In the tower, you need the mach bike and you have to go through some levels with crumbling floors. at the top is Rayquaza, at level 70. don't use the master ball, you'll want to use that on either Latios or Latias, depending on your version.
as for time, it's the same as real life. You remember how you set the clock? then the game moves along with that time.
