During the crossover event for the trading card game, you can also encounter Ditto in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO have looked into which monsters the Transform Pokémon is currently hiding behind and will show you.
What kind of Pokémon is it? In Pokémon GO, you have the chance to encounter the so-called Transform Pokémon Ditto. This Pokémon can change its shape and thus take on the appearance of other monsters.
For this reason, it does not spawn in its actual form in the game, but hides behind other Pokémon. You could find Ditto already behind various monsters in 2022, such as Gastly, Drowzee, or Teddiursa.
On the occasion of the currently ongoing crossover event for the trading card game, Ditto is now hiding behind various other monsters, in addition to the already known Pokémon. We’ll show you which ones they are.
How long does the crossover event run? The crossover event for the trading card game runs until June 30, 2022, at 8:00 PM.
Keep an eye out for Ditto behind these 3 monsters
With the start of the crossover event, the spawns in the wild have changed. And you may also encounter Ditto there with a bit of luck. According to current reports from Niantic, Ditto is now also hiding behind the following Pokémon (via pokemongolive.com):
- Wurmple
- Camaub
- Bidiza
So if you are still looking for a Ditto, you should definitely catch these monsters. Whether there is a Ditto hiding behind them can only be seen after you have successfully caught the Pokémon.
Is there a Shiny Ditto? Yes, with a bit of luck, you may also encounter a shiny Ditto. You can recognize it by its blue body.

Unlike other Shinies, you will also only see the shiny specimen after you have caught it. For example, you will initially see a normal Wurmple, which may change into a Shiny Ditto after being caught with a bit of luck.
Can a Shiny Wurmple be a Ditto? If a shiny Pokémon is shown immediately upon clicking, you can be sure that there is no Ditto hiding behind it. You will thus keep the Shiny.
Are you hoping for an encounter with Ditto during the crossover event? Or do you not really care about the Transform Pokémon? And what other monsters should it hide behind in the future? Let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.
