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.
Differs from A029960 after the zero first for 3391 = 1011_15, which is not in A029960 but in this sequence. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 23 2018

EXAMPLE
647 in base-15: 2,13,2 having DV = 11, UV = 11, so that 647 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 = 15; 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] (* A297285 *)
Take[Flatten[Position[w, 0]], 120] (* A297286 *)
Take[Flatten[Position[w, 1]], 120] (* A297287 *)
