what's going on everyone austin john place here and today i'm gonna be showing you
how you can get ditto in pokemon brilliant diamond and shiny pearl
isn't it always the worst when ditto is locked to the post game in a pokemon game because that's
that's where he is he's in the post game because he's part of the national decks not part of the
local deck so you need to complete the game fill up the entire cento decks and then do this ditto
is available in two places in pokemon brilliant diamond shiny pearl one in the underground and
one in the above world using the poke radar so first i'm going to show you the underground
location because it's going to be the fastest and the easiest however you are not guaranteed any
max ivs i definitely recommend coming in here placing statues resetting and definitely putting
in all your normal statues how many normal statues do i have three i don't think that's gonna be too
helpful i should definitely do more statues i'm doing all of this the hard way aren't i next we
are going to make our way inside of the dazzling cave that's the one with the big pink icon with
what looks like a chaos emerald on top of there and inside of the dazzling cave you have a regular
chance to get ditto hey look it's ella kid hey look it's ditto we did it wow one continuous
recording there you go there is ditto now do keep in mind ditto is going to transform into your
pokemon it's going to have 5 pp of all of your attacks so it can be a little bit rough to catch
you may want to just i don't know keep a magikarp in the front of your party for this
are we going to get it with a quick ball
wow dodo airlines luck matching colors you saw that right that's not an easy catch that's
really not an easy catch hang on yeah that's a 33 catch rate all right not not the worst
but yeah that's one of two ways to get a ditto now as i mentioned you're not guaranteed any max ivs
there is a specific thing that your trainer can have like a special opening cutscene animation but
you probably know what i'm talking about that like instead of it just being the pokemon immediately
it's more cinematic and looks at your face that means that the pokemon has two guaranteed max ivs
which is pretty cool however there is a way to guarantee your ditto to have
two three four or five max ivs you are not going to like it you are not gonna like it first of
all ditto is only available in one patch of grass with the poke radar throughout the entire game and
we're going to make our way to cana live city can alive city canada leave city there we go cantalave
here we're going to be on route 218. i don't think i fought either of those trainers i think i have
to fight them now the process to get a three four or five iv ditto is going to be the exact same
process as i outlined in my shiny hunting video all you have to do is get a whole bunch of balls
and a whole bunch of repels come to this patch of grass right here stand in the middle put down a
hard save unequip your bike from your plus button unequip your reverse seeker from your plus button
i think it's good practice to register a rod that you're not going to be using to down the
registering the good rod down is just a preference of mine if you only have one item registered then
pressing the plus button will just go to that one item i just like the gratification of hitting plus
and then hitting up now that you've done all that drop down your hard safe and use your poke radar
all of these patches of grass that you see have approximately a 22 chance to be dead out in which
case encounter any of them that's not a ditto turn the game off turn it back on once you're loaded
back into the game use the poke radar again aim for the furthest piece of grass away and hope it's
a ditto it's not turn the game off turn it back on repeat there we go we got a ditto fantastic that's
how you could get a ditto in the overworld however this ditto stats are garbage you are guaranteed
zero max ivs that means that there's just a very slim chance that it's gonna have good stats
uh and then you have to catch this ditto i only have 19 quick balls i was not prepared for this
in addition i do not have my preferred pokemon to hunt it up because i've already done a ditto
hunt let's go ahead and switch my switches and in this game here he is okay this is my absol that i
like to bring with me when i hunt down ditto it only has false swipe and sword stance so if it
were to transform into ditto ditto would then have those two attacks which would never ever knock out
my pokemon it has 10 pp between all of its attacks so that's gonna be more than fine so i basically i
go into the battle i use false swipe i get it down to one health it then transforms into absol i then
swap into lux ray i then use thunder wave on it and it's almost a guaranteed catch with a repeat
ball the ditto you're gonna get is gonna be really really bad stats it is now if you do that and go
to the furthest patch of grass away that you can there's a 93 chance that you are going to continue
that chain the game is programmed that way your 20th through your 29th pokemon should have one max
iv your 30th through your 39th should have two max ivs and your 40th onward should have three max ivs
however due to an error in the game's code for your 20th you're guaranteed one max iv
for your 30th you're guaranteed to max ivs for your 40th you're guaranteed three max
ivs or something like that i don't know the games code just isn't right whatsoever
and if you did continue a chain up until the 100th ditto then you could get yourself a 5 iv
ditto like this one right here that was gotten by someone else and then traded to me that's a 5
iv ditto the chance of actually reaching a 5 iv is less than 1 it's actually less than a tenth
of a percent so most likely this was done via uh unofficial means let's just leave it at that if
there's an update that makes it a better chance or something else or at least just fix the code while
everyone does want a 6iv ditto it's a question of what would take longer actually hunting down
a 5iv ditto which then that 5iv ditto would have a what one out of 32 chance to be a 6iv ditto and
then you would have to do that for that less than tenth of a percent or just wait for a pokemon home
because i guarantee you have one from max raid battles and pokemon sword and shield it's pretty
rough right now it is i'm not gonna lie that would be how you could get yourself a 5iv ditto which in
my mind right now is near impossible however it should be mentioned if you do decide to do that
chain for at least the three iv ditto or a shiny ditto or a shiny three iv ditto which is nice
uh you can definitely get yourself a shiny ditto because i did right here see that shiny patch
i did that after a chain of one so yeah in my mind that's pretty much a full odd shiny ditto
and that's him in all of his flubbery glory have him right here which i'm never actually gonna keep
a shiny ditto on my team yeah that's pretty neat i should probably bring my spirit tomb or my ralts
into my team you did see me catch them you know anyways guys i hope this information on how to get
ditto for breeding purposes of pokemon brilliant diamond shining pro was helpful
unfortunately the information on how to get a 5iv1 is not too helpful but it can be done in theory
so best of luck with that guys thank you so much for checking out this video if you're
