COMMENTS
Suppose that n has base-b digits b(m), b(m-1), ..., b(0). The base-b down-variation of n is the sum DV(n,b) of all d(i)-d(i-1) for which d(i) > d(i-1); the base-b up-variation of n is the sum UV(n,b) of all d(k-1)-d(k) for which d(k) < d(k-1). The total base-b variation of n is the sum TV(n,b) = DV(n,b) + UV(n,b). See the guide at A297330.
a(n) = A029803(n+1) for 1 <= n < 72, but a(72) = 521 differs from A029803(73) = 585. - Georg Fischer, Oct 30 2018

EXAMPLE
406 in base-8: 6,2,6, having DV = 4, UV = 4, so that 406 is in the sequence.
MATHEMATICA
g[n_, b_] := Map[Total, GatherBy[Differences[IntegerDigits[n, b]], Sign]];
x[n_, b_] := Select[g[n, b], # < 0 &]; y[n_, b_] := Select[g[n, b], # > 0 &];
b = 8; z = 2000; p = Table[x[n, b], {n, 1, z}]; q = Table[y[n, b], {n, 1, z}];
w = Sign[Flatten[p /. {} -> {0}] + Flatten[q /. {} -> {0}]];
Take[Flatten[Position[w, -1]], 120] (* A297264 *)
Take[Flatten[Position[w, 0]], 120] (* A297265 *)
Take[Flatten[Position[w, 1]], 120] (* A297266 *)
