Pokémon Go Ditto explained: March 2024 disguises

21.03.2024 - 13:19 / radiotimes.com

While you’re out and about you’ll find plenty of interesting, cute and powerful 'Mons to catch while playing Pokémon Go — but Ditto is one of the most elusive.

You won’t find a Ditto while playing Pokémon Go; instead, you can find and catch a Pokémon which is secretly a Ditto in disguise.

If you catch a Pokémon which is a Ditto in disguise, your player avatar will be surprised and say, «Oh?» before the Pokémon you just caught transforms back into a Ditto.

The list of Pokémon which can be a Ditto in disguise changes every now and then, so it’s worth knowing what to look out for when chasing a Ditto.

Given that they're of little use in battles and that breeding is yet to be a thing in Go, you'll need to catch a Ditto purely for Pokédex completion purposes.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Pokémon Go Ditto March 2024 disguises and how to catch the pink blob.

To catch a Ditto in Pokémon Go, you need to catch a Pokémon from the list of Ditto Pokémon disguises. The list of Pokémon that can be a Ditto in disguise changes from time to time.

It’s worth remembering that if one of the Pokémon in the list is a Shiny, it cannot be a Ditto – catch it anyway, though, because who doesn’t like Shinies?

Just like any other Pokémon, a Ditto has a small chance of being a Shiny, too. If it’s blue, it’s a Shiny. As far as anyone is aware, there’s no way to increase your chances of finding a Shiny Ditto (or a regular Ditto, for that matter).

Two years in a row now, though, Niantic has made Ditto more plentiful during events – the 2022 April Fools' event and 2023 Let’s Go event. Fingers crossed more of these events take place soon. April Fools' 2024? Time will tell.
