Ditto has a unique mechanic in Pokémon Go. It disguises itself as other Pokémon, which makes it hard to find because it never appears on the map. There’s no guarantee you’ll ever come across one.
When you catch certain Pokémon, they have a rare chance to be a Ditto in disguise. The list of Pokémon that Ditto can appear as is pretty slim, and there’s no guarantee the Pokémon you catch is a Ditto or the real deal.
However, knowing the list of Pokémon that can be Ditto is the first step to finding one. So, keep this list on you at all times, or memorize it to the best of your ability to increase your chances.
All September 2024 Ditto disguises in Pokémon Go
Ditto in Pokémon Go can be one of eleven Pokémon. In September 2024, the list of Pokémon that have a slim chance of being a disguised Ditto includes:
Disguised Pokémon | Can it be Shiny? |
---|---|
Oddish | Yes |
Koffing | Yes |
Rhyhorn | Yes |
Goldeen | Yes |
Spinarak | Yes |
Numel | Yes |
Bidoof | Yes |
Gothita | Yes |
Solosis | Yes |
Bergmite | Yes |
Stufful | Yes |
The list is nearly identical to the one for August 2024, but some surprises could be on the way due to the launch of the new season. With Woolo, Skovet, and other Galar Pokémon joining the fray, Ditto might disguise itself as new Pokémon in the future.
Ditto is also available as a Shiny Pokémon, but the odds of finding a Shiny Ditto is near-impossible. If you do find one, though, you know you’ve struck gold.
