Talk:Ditto (Pokémon)

I'm pretty sure Ditto's in the No Egg group. While it can breed with any Pokémon besides those in the No Egg group, it cannot breed with another Ditto, implying that it is, itself, in the No Egg group. -Ketsuban

Ditto is in a special egg group called "DITTO" (you know how the game likes to use all-caps for Pokemon names). This group allows it to breed with anything other than a Pokemon in the "No EGGs" group or the "DITTO" group. This is what allows Ditto to breed with Pikachu or Staryu, but Suicune can't breed with other Pokemon. --Meowth346

I thought you could breed two Ditto and get another Ditto. surskitty 23:01, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Nope. Stupidly. ~Ketz

Ditto is able to breed with other Pokémon ostensibly because of its ability to transform into other Pokémon. If it was paired with another Ditto, it wouldn't have anything to transform into, and since Ditto are genderless, would therefore have no reproductive organs.

Makes perfect sense to me that two purplish-pink blobs can't mate with each other. --17:09, 9 August 2007 (UTC)Ozzie

Does that mean that Ditto can breed with Lucario?Optimus35 03:23, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Anything but legendaries means anything but legendaries. Lucario isn't legendary. Therefore, of course. TTEchidna 04:57, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Er Thanks...Optimus35 08:36, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

didnt in in the II gen games if you put Ditto in the day care by itself turn into two dittos (most likely because it duplicated like a cell)--Kittenchild 02:58, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

So I can't have a Lvl.1 Ditto? TESHIGIGAS 18:34, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

In the same note of discussion, how was the Steps to Hatch a Ditto Egg reached? Hack?

The data's in there for all Pokémon just in case you somehow (usually hacking) manage to make an egg of it. TTEchidna^G_SDS! 07:17, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm.....

Ditto in the Anime could morph into any other pokemonn but keeps it size in some cases , but in the TCG it keeps its beaded eyes , that just makes wonder , can the Pokémon that ditto morphs to in the TCG be exceptions or special forms?--Nobody777 12:38, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I don't think so...D: Not sure... *is currently in Science-ICT class at school* Takoto タコト| サソデイ = 愛 12:47, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

i think the info above should be mentioned in the trivia about the beaded eyes. to be honest nintendo shoud confirm this--Nobody777 13:25, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Trivia

Though worthless to do, can't u breed 2 Dittos and get another Ditto?--KukiTalk 15:23, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

No. You cannot breed a Ditto with a Ditto. ~$aturn¥oshi ^{THE VOICES} 17:53, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Really... interesting--KukiTalk 18:09, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

It's confusing, but it makes vague sense since Ditto has no gender. Remember, non-gendered Pokémon can't be bred, even with Ditto...it's "Unknown"-gendered Pokémon (Magnemite etc.) that can. Ditto has a unique egg type as well, we assume it breeds with everything except itself and None. LordArceus 00:07, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Learn every move

Can't ditto learn every move with its move transform?ryan 00:10, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

But since it doesn't keep the move permanently, it doesn't go under the Learnset section. - _s.Combusken 00:11, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

  Ok i was just wonderingryan 14:39, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Color

Sould it be noted that, in all sprites exept Gen. 3 Ditto's color is purple, but in its Gen. 3 sprite it's pink ? ryan 15:19, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

no cos to me it looks pink all time and in Yellow it Yellowy-green.GoldsWigglytuff 10:42, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Buggy Moves

In my Pokemon Diamond game, I was using Ditto to catch Pokemon. After using transform on and catching a Primape, combat ended with Ditto still looking like Primape (duh). After that I got into another wild battle and Ditto was Ditto again, but with Primape's moveset. I am making an assumption that you can potentially make Ditto a permanent clone move-wise this way, anyone want to experiment? Crenel 21:07, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

never happed to me and my ditto, if was a bug in your game then you are lucky. and what do mean experiment? I can experiment.GoldsWigglytuff

Wha? I've heard of this happening... was this a Japanese game or the international release? TTEchidna 23:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

if a shiny ditto Transforms will it Transform in a shiny whatever

if it don,t then saud be in the page GoldsWigglytuff

It did, but won't anymore. TTEchidna 23:59, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

cool, when did it solpGoldsWigglytuff 10:40, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
