"Pokemon Go" developer Niantic has officially confirmed the addition of Ditto in their Pokemon lineup. However, Ditto is a special Pokemon that hides behind the identities of other creatures. Because of his unique representation, players might have troubles capturing one so here is what we can recommend.
"Pokemon Go" tip number one is to get out on the wild to search for Pokemon creatures again. Those who had lost interest in the game can find a new reason to walk and hunt pocket little monsters because any day could be their lucky day to catch Ditto. With Ditto mimicking other Pokemon creatures, any Pokemon a player meets could be a Ditto in disguise.
"Pokemon Go" tip number two is to specifically look for low-level Pokemon creatures such as Pidgey, Rattata and Zubat, TechnoBuffalo reported. Ditto is believed to appear as one of these common pocket little monsters. The more Pidgey, Rattata and Zubat a "Pokemon Go" player catches, the more chances of getting a Ditto.
But why are "Pokemon Go" players overwhelmed by the arrival of Ditto in the hit mobile game? For one, Ditto is a special creature that can copy the first Pokemon that it will fight inside gyms unless it is another Ditto. Ditto's mimic power allows it to steal not only the appearance of its first opponent but also its skills.
Since Ditto is a special Pokemon that hides its true form, players are restricted to see it on the "Pokemon Go" map. However, if a player was already able to catch a Ditto in a certain area, the Pokemon will appear as itself in the given location, The Guardian reported. This could give other trainers a better chance at capturing one.
"Pokemon Go" players are also advised to ask friends and family where they have already captured a Ditto. It will be easier to catch one if Ditto is lurking as itself in plain sight. Have you already captured a Ditto on "Pokemon Go"? Tell us where in our comments section below.
