If you’re looking to catch the ever-elusive Ditto in Pokémon GO, this guide will take you through all of the best and easiest ways to do so. Ditto can’t just be found on the map, but if you catch the right Pokémon you can find it more efficiently. This guide tells you exactly which Pokémon can possibly be a Ditto.

How to find Ditto in Pokémon GO

This is where it gets a bit complicated to find a Ditto. The Pokémon does not show up in the wild normally. Instead of appearing, it will imitate specific Pokémon that you will need to catch and will only reveal itself once you have caught it. When you catch one of the listed Pokémon, you will see “Oh?” over the Pokéball and will then be shown that the Pokémon was in fact a Ditto.

The following is a list of Pokémon that might potentially be a Ditto. You will want to mass catch them. Hopefully you live in an area that has a lot of them around. The good thing for us is that Niantic has made the majority of these potential Dittos fairly common. Here’s a list of those Pokémon:

Ditto’s Move Set List in Pokémon GO

Ditto has two different moves. One is Transform, which is Ditto’s main attraction. You use this move to transform into the Pokémon you are currently battling against. You then gain their move set. The other move it has is Struggle. This is a very weak Normal move that does very little damage. So, it’s unlikely you’d ever want to use it; you will likely be transforming 99% of the time.

When Ditto transforms into another Pokémon, it keeps its own IVs, level, and HP. It takes the base stats of the Pokémon it transforms into, and it has their moves and types. So, if you have a higher level Ditto than the Pokémon you are transforming into, your CP will be higher than that of the Pokémon you are battling.
