You can make your Secret Base in the Grand Underground in Pokemon BDSP. These are the steps to follow for creating a base.

  1. Go to the Eterna City. The same place as the second gym.
  2. There head to the house next to the Pokemon Center and speak with the Underground Man.
  3. He will give the Explorer Kit. You need to interact with him and complete his missions to get Digger Drill.
    • The first mission requires you to go underground. Be outside any building and use the Explorer Kit. Go underground and listen to Roark explain the features of it. Once over go back up to complete it.
    • For your second mission, you need to dig up spheres or treasures. To complete this mission find yellow spots, after finding one face it and press A. Complete the mini-game to get the treasure.
  4. The second mission will reward you with the Digger Drill.
  5. After getting Digger Drill, go underground and face any wall of your choice. Simply press X-button and select Digger Drill from the Traps menu. You will be asked for a confirmation of whether you wish to create the secret base in that wall. Select Yes to make your Secret Base. Remember to select this wall carefully as Digger Drill works like a consumable item. Hence after one use, it will disappear.

If you follow the above steps correctly you should be able to create your Secret Base in no time.
