Boards Pokemon Sword Why is Ditto so hard to catch? Is your Pokemon a lower level than the Ditto? In terms of party members yes! Philip posted If I'm not mistaken, Quick Balls are generally a guaranteed catch on the first turn, of course on anything with a species catch rate of 90 or above, but as you go under that you're gonna start to see more and more failures. The catch rate group of 45 is vast and many legendaries ever since gen 5 have been put in that group, due to the fact cover legendaries are now mandatory catches and they didn't want players to feel stymied by required difficult captures to advance the story.

Ditto is only a little bit harder than these guys; still isn't anywhere near the level of the legendaries that are still in the catch rate 3 group. As someone above pointed out, you'll want to make sure you don't have out a Pokemon that's lower level than what you're trying to catch; it will tank the catch rate.

Sword and Shield really don't want you catching things of higher level, for some weird reason not that it really matters with how piss easy it is to farm XP in these games This was true only in gens 3 and 4, apparently. Also, I have the Catching Charm key item on hand. The catch rate of any Pokemon in gen 8 goes way down if your Pokemon is at a lower level than what you're trying to catch. To err is human. Ditto mainly spawn in the grass, and sometimes it spawns as a random encounter in usual weather conditions.

As you know that it can change into someone else, but it cannot breed because the game mechanics do not have this feature. Many trainers want to catch Ditto as it also helps in unlocking quests. Ditto shows its real face only after being caught.

Your luck and efforts play an essential role in this.
