Ditto is one of the most elusive and sought-after Pokemon in Pokemon Go, as it can transform into any other Pokemon it encounters. However, catching Ditto is not as easy as it seems, as it disguises itself as a common Pokemon and only reveals its true identity after being captured. This article will show you how to catch Ditto in Pokemon Go in July 2023 and the best tips and tricks.
What Pokemon Can Ditto Be Disguised as of July 2023?
The first step to catching Ditto is to know what Pokemon it can be disguised as. Ditto changes its disguise every month, so you must keep track of the latest updates from Niantic, the developer of Pokemon Go. In July 2023, Ditto can be disguised as one of the following Pokemon:
- Diglett
- Grimer
- Snubbull
- Corphish
- Starly
- Roggenrola
- Tympole
- Litleo
The Let’s Go/Team Go Rocket Takeover event in March 2023 saw the most recent modification.

How to Find Shiny Ditto in Pokemon Go?
Shiny Ditto is a rare Ditto variant with a different color scheme. Shiny Ditto was introduced in the Kanto Tour event in February 2021 and is now available for all players. However, finding shiny Ditto is very difficult, as it has a low spawn rate and a low shiny rate.
The shiny rate for Ditto is estimated to be around one in 64, so you have to catch about 64 Dittos on average to find one shiny. However, this is not guaranteed, as some players may find shiny Ditto sooner or later than others.
One thing to note is that if you encounter a shiny Pokémon that can be a Ditto disguise, it will never be a Ditto. For example, if you see a shiny Grimer, you can catch it without worrying about losing your shiny. Shiny Ditto will only appear as a normal-looking Pokémon that turns out to be a Ditto after being caught.
To find shiny Ditto in July 2023, you must follow the same steps as regular Ditto, but with more patience and luck. You can also try to participate in events that feature increased spawns of Ditto disguises or offer guaranteed encounters with them.
