How to catch Ditto in Pokemon GO?

Unlike other Pokemon, Ditto won't reveal itself on the map. It cleverly disguises itself as one of the Pokemon mentioned in the set above. To catch a Ditto, you'll need to be on the lookout for specific Pokemon that the Transform Pokemon likes to mimic at that time.

These potential disguises are listed in the table for your reference. Catching any of these Pokemon might just land you a Ditto. It won't be easy, but with patience and persistence, you'll encounter a Ditto eventually.

How to find Shiny Ditto in Pokemon GO?

You need to keep in mind that if one of the aforementioned disguises appears in its shiny form, it will not be a Shiny Ditto. The only way to secure one is by repeatedly catching the normal spawns of those on the Pokemon GO Ditto disguise list and hoping for the best.

Shiny Ditto has a 1 in 64 chance of appearing. While this number means it has a higher chance of spawning compared to most other shinies, the rarity of encountering a Ditto itself complicates the matter.

Can Ditto hatch from an egg in Pokemon GO?

No, you cannot hatch Ditto from any variant of egg in Pokemon GO. The only way to snag a Ditto in Pokemon Go is by encountering one in disguise while you're out exploring.

Pokemon GO Ditto details

While there is no way to be absolutely sure whether a wild spawn is a Ditto, you can try to gauge the same by looking at the CP (Combat Power) of the Pokemon. If it is a Ditto, it will have less CP than is expected from the wild spawn of the particular Pokemon it is disguised as.

Furthermore, Ditto can transform into the first Pokemon it meets in battle when used in Gym attacking or defending. This transformation will remain the same for the entirety of the battle. While its CP and stats will remain the same, Ditto can also take up the fast and charged moves of the Pokemon it is copying. If used properly, this can provide trainers with a quick advantage.

FAQs on Ditto in Pokemon GO

Which lure attracts Ditto?

Can Ditto turn into Mewtwo?

Ans: Yes, Ditto can turn into Mewtwo.

How do you tell if a Pokemon is a Ditto in Pokemon GO?

Ans: There is no surefire way to know if the encountered Pokemon is Ditto before catching it. If it is actually Ditto, once caught, the pocket monster will transform back into Ditto.
