Early Game:
* Route 36: This is the most common location to find Ditto. It is a relatively rare encounter, but it's the easiest to access early on.
Later Game:
* Goldenrod City Game Corner: You can battle Ditto in the Game Corner's slot machine minigames. However, this is not a guaranteed encounter and can be quite expensive.
Important Note:
* Ditto is a rare encounter. You might need to spend a lot of time searching for it, especially early on.
* Use Repels: Repels can help reduce the chances of encountering other Pokemon, making it more likely you'll encounter Ditto.
* Use the "Sweet Scent" TM: This TM can increase the chances of encountering rare Pokemon, including Ditto.
Tips for Catching Ditto:
* Use a Pokemon with False Swipe: False Swipe will lower the target's HP to 1, making it easier to catch.
* Use a Poke Ball with higher catch rate: Ultra Balls or Great Balls will have higher chances of catching Ditto.
* Make sure your Pokemon is at a high level: This will increase your chances of catching Ditto.
Good luck on your Ditto hunting!
