The Transform Pokémon Ditto is an invaluable resource to Pokémon breeding! So, where is Ditto and what’s the best way to get a Ditto with high IVs or a variety of natures?
In The Wild
After you’ve obtained your 8th badge, you will be strong enough to capture Ditto in the Wild Area. You’ll find it roaming the Over World at Lake Outrage 10% of the time in all weather. You’ll also find it as a surprise encounter in the grass during Normal Weather 2% of the time.
If you need Ditto specifically for a nature, it might be best to search here with a Synchronize Pokémon.
In Max Raids
North of the Nursery in the Wild Area, you’ll find an area called the Stony Wilderness. The Stony Wilderness has mountains lining its Eastern border. If you travel into the area and hug the Eastern wall, you’ll find a small patch of grass with a den behind it. This out-of-the-way den has a secret. The Rare Dens have a 100% chance of having a Ditto. Furthermore, all Raid based Pokémon have a chance at max IVs. Making it perfect for breeding!
When you encounter Ditto, consider setting a friend code by pressing “+” and keeping it exclusive to your friends. Or! Recruit help from the community and leave it open. Whatever you decide, before you dive in, there are two critical components you’ll want to consider.
Repeat Balls
Remember that higher star values also mean the Pokémon will be harder to capture. Before you lob another Ultra Ball at Ditto, consider a Repeat Ball.
Ultra Balls increase your catch chance by x 2. However, if the Pokémon is already in your Pokédex, the Repeat Ball increases your chances of capturing by x 3.5. That increase is almost double! You can buy Repeat Balls for 1,000$ in Wyndon’s central Pokémon Center!
Ditto Transforms
Before you select your favorite Pokémon with great coverage moves, consider that Ditto can transform into any of its four opposing Pokémon, given that they are able to dynamax.
Pokémon who cannot dynamax are the legendary Pokémon Zacian, Zamazenta, and Eternatus. Therefore, if you bring these three Pokémon to Ditto raids, Ditto will already be Dynamaxed and will not be able to assume their form–as they cannot Dynamax. If all four trainers bring legendary Pokémon, Ditto will fail to transform endlessly. Go ahead and chip away at its HP in an easy encounter.
Shout out to our friends Paul (IG @puccello27), JT (IG @jayt491), and Nick Schwerdtfeger for the ground-breaking field research using legendary Pokémon against Ditto!
Just reached Turffield Stadium!

Any clue what Salandit’s version counterpart is? Not exclusive, just only out of the wild area in Shield for some reason lol
The deed is done. All starters from Gens 1-7 are safe and secure in the Bank. My next goals are to complete the fossils tonight and begin the search for the Gens 2, 3 and 4 box legends in Ultra Wormholes (which may take forever). Once I do all of that I can start positioning everything in order of National Dex number while making room for alternate forms and such. I won’t get super obsessive about getting every male and female form because I have a life, but ones like all the Sawsbuck and Deerling forms along with the Rotoms are more important to me.
5 gold star Toxtricity raid send help
My idiot cpu generated partner used flamethrower on a flash fire Chandelure.
Really? -_-
Just spending some of my free time surprise trading and I fortunately received a Galarian Ponyta. It may have been a breedject, but it made completing my Pokédex a bit easier.
Anyone rooting for The Pokémon Company to sue leakers are spineless bootlickers
And just sick cause they’re rooting for people to have their entire livelihoods crushed and potentially leading to worse
Maybe people would come to Spikemuth if it wasn’t a horribly designed town. One of the worst in recent memory
If you had enough Pink to be forced into being Opal’s successor, which four Fairy types would you use? They have to be in the Galar Dex mind you.

So there is a rare 5 star Gardevoir Raid, does anyone want to be my friend and help me take it down?
So I’m probably going to go with my level 59 Corviknight. It can take hits so if someone else wants to Dynamax then I’m all for it. (Also if there is a better way to communicate then on the comment section let me know).
Underappreciated detail: the ambient sounds some Pokemon have in battle (mostly the wing sfx flying Mons have)
The link code is 9710.
So i fought this dynamax Snomanitan it had Zen Mode and that’s some funny sh*t
I wanted to try catching it in a Premier ball but knowing my luck it would’ve broken free
Sorry for quitting. I’m going to try to get all three of us in.
Why do you hate me
How they can improve the Y-Comm
-Add a new tab for friends, where you can see a list of your registered Switch friends list who own the game, via highlighted and unhighlighted whether they are online or not
-Selecting their name opens up the option to trade, battle, swap and Pokemon camp
-Make it that the filter can be updated if the participant has full members or not for raids
-Add some kind of restriction or drawback to players abusing the date change because honestly i feel that’s why nobody can get up to date raid feed
Patching that in doesn’t sounds very GF
Sorry, Wes, fortunately we were able to take it down.
Corviknight is unkillable….. even a life orb boosted max flare won’t cut it down
Wait, so why can Dragapult learn Dragon Claw, but not Shadow Claw??
So Melony and her gym were definitely the most challenging battle I’ve experienced so far out of the gym leaders. G-Max Lapras with Aurora Veil set up knocked out my Falinks and almost my Toxtricity and Centiskorch. I’m hoping gyms 7 and 8 follow the same difficulty
FUKING DAMN I HATE THAT METAL BIRD WHY IS THAT ALL STEEL FLYING TYPES CAUSE ME SO MUCH AGONY
so sleebi
Lemme correct the weird things I’m seeing
Every gym battle in SwSh is super easy
But Gym 6?
That puzzle can go die lemme tell you
It’s not that hard if you pay attention to the vibrations. Interesting puzzle, nontheless
Give your favourite Pokemon a G-Max move!
Raichu – G-Max Stormstrike
Sets up Rain and Electric Terrain for 3 turns each, 5 turns with a Damp Rock or Terrain Extender for the appropriate field effects.
Eiscue lowkey growing on me
I’ve seen this exact set of words from about seven people this week
One of those being me
