  • Same here.

    I don't take them out unless I find one with better IV's to breed with or if I'm doing the Masuda method for shinies.

    The only I've ever used a ditto was for fun in HGSS, challenging the E4 with just one ditto...
    Oh how much of a fail that was...

  • Yes that's exactly what I do. But I usually forget about them, and they've yet still to reach level 100.
    However, what I hate about the daycare is they delete and replace moves without notifying you, which really frustrates me.

    But that wouldn't be a problem with ditto :D

    And yeah, i left mine in there and when i took him out to teach a pokemon egg moves i was shocked that he was at level 90 :|

    No... well, my English Dittos, at least. What's the point of crazy in-breeding if you don't have a heightened chance of getting a Shiny? XD

  • wait how do you get pokemon shinies from daycare breeding? i didnt even know that was possible

    You can do the Masuda method which increases your chance by75% of getting a shiny by obtaining a foreign Ditto and using it to breed. However, the transfer of natures from the female breeder(everstone) will not work.. for some reason.

    1 in 8192 chance of obtaining a shiny by egg with a non-foreign Ditto. That's a 0.0122% chance of obtaining a shiny via egg hatching or wild pokemon.

    1 in 2048 chance by doing the Masuda method.
    That's a much higher percentage rate.

  • I have captured several Ditto of different natures for breeding purposes. I use them only when the Pokemon I'm trying to breed doesn't have a suitable partner.

    I never take my Ditto out of the daycare. What's the point of taking it out? It would cost too much money anyways... =/

    Sorry Ditto =/

  • I was going through a breeding phase *shudders* which I had to go to Pokemon Rehab for, but my Ditto grew to 83 during that time period.

    I had bred about 3 boxes full of flawless Eevees.

  • I only use Dittos for genderless Pokemons. You know, I should start taking advantage of their flexible sexuality.

  • My Ditto leaves the Daycare whenever I need to breed for egg moves and when I was trying to hatch a Shiny Eevee using Masuda's method before I learned how to RNG for shinies.

    Wow, that's A LOT of RNGing...

  • If the Daycare is like the Playboy Mansion, then Ditto is definately Hugh Hefner. All humor aside, I always leave them in daycare.
