Pokémon GO Ditto Disguises (March 2025)
As of March 2025, Ditto can disguise itself as Bergmite, Bidoof, Goldeen, Gothita, Koffing, Numel, Oddish, Rhyhorn, Solosis, Spinarak, and Stufful (see image above). Catching any of these common wild spawns might reveal a hidden Ditto!
After catching a disguised Ditto, it will transform before the catch screen, revealing its true form. You'll know you've caught a Ditto when you see an "Oh?" pop up above your Poké Ball.

How Rare is Ditto in Pokémon GO?
Even knowing its disguises, Ditto remains relatively rare. However, there's a clue: Ditto's CP (Combat Power) is consistently lower than the Pokémon it's impersonating. For example, at Trainer Level 50, Ditto might have a max CP of around 940, while Goldeen's max CP is approximately 1302. Look for lower-than-expected CP to increase your chances.
