Can Ditto be shiny in Pokémon GO?
Yes! Ditto has been available in its shiny form for some time in Pokémon GO, and you may encounter its shiny variant in your Research rewards encounters. While shiny Ditto can also appear in the wild, it’s a little more complex than with other Pokémon. For more, read this separate article about catching shiny Ditto in Pokémon GO.
