As always in Pokémon GO, you won't be able to count on raids or eggs: Ditto can never appear as anything other than another Pokémon! The list seems to have evolved for the new year, and it now includes 10 creatures to hunt.

As a reminder, after each capture, an unusual message may appear on your screen: Instead of the classic “I've got you!”, you'll get a surprised “Oh?”, a sign that a Ditto is hiding behind your target. This may require many unsuccessful attempts before triggering the surprise. That said, feel free to use it anyway incense or lures to increase the spawn rates of wild Pokémon in general: this logically increases the number of Dittos.

As you will have understood, it is imperative that you know the forms behind which this strange purple creature hides if you hope to capture it. So keep a close eye on your Exploration Tracker because a disguised Metamorph can hide behind each of the 10 Pokémon that we are going to present to you!

Note that if you spot one of these Pokémon, it does not necessarily mean that Ditto is hiding behind it. However, if you see one from the list below, you will have to catch it anyway since you will not be able to tell if it is a Ditto in other disguises.

The case of shiny (or chromatic) Ditto in Niantic's game is special: It has been in-game for several months, but until September 2021, it was strictly impossible to see it appear in the wild. When it first came into play, Shiny Ditto was linked to a Special Study. You then had two options to obtain it, namely exchange or… wait for the next Special Study featuring a chromatic Metamorph.

However, it appears to have been found in the wild since: By capturing a Pokémon that can be shiny but isn't, there's a chance that a shiny Ditto will be hiding behind it!
