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!
My friend just caught this and sent me a picture! Hes so happy!

@ryanvermiverous:disqus Im here! battle?
Thanks for the repeat ball tip, I was wondering what the better option would be for 4 and 5 star raid battles.
Is it possible to inflict status like paralysis or sleep, or is it really just up to the strongest pokeball and chance?
Siiiiiigh…….. i’m going to call it a night, tomorrow is my only day of work because of the holiday and cut-hours, i’m just gonna do a half-assed job and spend a lot of time in my car with my new charger for the switch and try and knock out a few of my Earthen Warriors, Drilbur is on it’s way, then Hippopotas, Trapinch, Silicorbra and finally Clayamask
JungleDex survey results. Italicised Mons have gotten into the Dex due to placing in the top three or special circumstances linked to another Pokemon’s pavement.
You may notice four are highlighted for Rodents, but that’s because both flavours of Linoone line get in, the Galarian line is just the default as it’s more popular.
Paired bugs are judged based on their region all together, and hence the winning pairs are highlighted. I didn’t show this in the results because its very obvious – the pairs are all relatively close to each other in votes surprisingly, and the pair rule didn’t change any top placements: it added one.

Man, I’m honestly incredibly happy to see these poll results all around.
All of my preferred picks made it for the rodents, birds and bugs (bugs especially!! I’m really glad you chose to group Scolipede and Leavanny together – it was super tough to pick between them – and Vivillon is one of my all-time favorites); Togedemaru is the only Pikachu clone I was invested in seeing, and it made first place; and while I’m slightly disappointed by the pseudos (can’t win them all, of course – but hey, why’d you guys put Kommo-o so low??), I’m super glad to see that Hydreigon (rightfully) made it, and I absolutely love Dragapult’s concept and think it’s one of the better Pokémon this Gen, so I’m also quite happy for it!
The people on this site seem to have fantastic taste, haha.
Didn’t like the results? Let it be known that this slate is an example that you should vote and share the vote to other Jungle members to increase the chances of it getting in! I’ll be posting a Dex recap underneath this comment.
@ryanvermiverous:disqus This is super close JEEEEZ lol
People fighting over the pikaclones and Im over here like…
They’re all stupid trash
Jesus Belladonna you started an all out nuclear armageddon in the comments
XD
Speaking of pikaclones, Plusle & Minun as one smash bros duo character is my most wanted now that all my most wanted made it lol
You do know that’s never going to happen though, right
Speaking of favourites, what’s your top 3?
Kantonian Raichu
Florges
Salazzle
That order. Changes a lot, Raichu doesn’t tend to though.
Well knowing what this is for I’m just gonna exclude Cinderace, Deci and Marshadow
Araquanid, Frosmoth, Flygon
Altaria
Milotic
Vivillon
Nominees? Hmm
-Lycanroc (midday if I gotta pick a form)
-Sawsbuck
-Don’t suppose I’m allowed to ask for a starter or legendary/mythical, and I think someone said Mienshao already. Let’s go with haxorus for my third
Delibird, Tangrowth, Stoutland

More server maintenance? What’s this the 3rd time in a week?
I know I don’t post on here very often but I usually just lurk around.
Last night me and my friend found a smol snow bean on route 8 and I thought I should share

HOLY F***
CPU wobbuffet just used safeguard to block G-Max Befuddle’s negative effects!
JungleDex type distribution!
Normal: 16 (6)
Grass: 13 (5)
Fire: 19 (8)
Water: 19 (9)
Flying: 19 (8)
Bug: 19 (8)
Poison: 17 (7)

(Brackets) are fully evolved Mons. Normal gets a plus one fully evolved due to Linoone in its Hoennian variation, but the Hoennian Linoone line doesn’t add to the overall number of Normal-type as it shares a Nlrmal type with its Galarian self.
Soft capacities for the JungleDex region distribution!
Kanto: 16/73
Johto: 10/47
Hoenn: 24/62v
Sinnoh: 25/47^
Unova: 29/71v
Kalos: 14/33
Alola: 20/32^
Galar: 11/39
Capacity = Number of Non-Special Pokemon Introduced/2, rounded down for big regions (v) and up for small regions (^). Forgot to remove Type: Hull and Silvally from the equation but I think poor Alola deserves the extra slot!
Tonight I’ve been playing Diamond and exploring the Solaceon Ruins to find all 26 forms of Unown, and I’m about to wrap up by collecting the rare ? and ! Unown. At some point I’ll transfer them all up to the Bank and plop them right into their own special box in the Johto section! I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time and it really hasn’t been as difficult as I expected.
Man it’s been far too long since I played gen 4. Everytime I attempt, the slow system speed puts me to sleep… 🙁
Last JungleDex related thing for a bit, as my all-nighter comes to an end and I must go and do life things now:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XHJVMDD
Survey, trying to find out what fossils people want. Galar fossils aren’t on as they’ll be handled differently, so it’s just the good ol’ Rock-type ones. Please make sure to take part if you’re interested in the project at all, it’s going a lot quicker then you’d expect!
G. Rapidash is really fun to use. Wish there were better physical fairy and psychic moves for it tho
I wish Passimian learned the elemental punches.
I wanan fawn a bit about Cinderace so like…
Expect something later, ya?
