Trainers,

Ditto isn’t that important in Pokemon Go Metagame, So after collecting one for the Pokedex, most of the players have stopped caring about it. That all changed after Ditto when tracking Ditto became a mandatory part of the Special Research journey for catching the Mythical Pokemon Mew.

Ditto is usually hidden as Pidgey, Zubat, Ratata and few other common Pokemon and only reveals its true form after it is captured. After many reports, it seems like Ditto is now also disguising itself as a Battle Showdown event pokemon.

Starting this Morning, many trainers on Reddit began reporting that they had caught Dittos disguised as Mankey. At first, it considered was as a hoax and it all got cleared after a Player uploaded the Video evidence of the same (Video evidence at the end of the Post)

It is still unclear that Ditto is always going to have a chance of being captured in the form of Mankey of it till the Battle showdown event, but it is a great chance for trainers who are stuck at Special Research quest and should be sure to ignore any Mankey during the event.

After many reports and verification, we are on the list of Pokemon that transform in Ditto after the catch.

Pokemon GO Mankey Mankey
Pokemon GO Zubat Zubat
Pokemon GO Rattata Rattata
Pokemon GO Pidgey Pidgey
Pokemon GO Gastly Gastly
Pokemon GO Zigzagoon Zigzagoon
Pokemon GO Gulpin Gulpin
Pokemon GO Taillow Taillow

Trainers,

As we are all aware that Battle Showdown has begun worldwide and in addition to that Raids are also changing, the bosses that are encountered within each of the Raid Levels have changed, adding new Raid Bosses and removing the old ones.

Raid Bosses’ shakeups are always interesting as they have proven to be another way for Niantic to introduce new Shiny sprites into the game, so we certainly hope for some Shiny news!

Tier 1 Raid Bosses are not affected, Tier 2 and 3 have got some Fighting Type additions

As we go through the analysis it clearly shows these boxes aren’t that good as the Kanto Celebration sale. If you’re holding enough number of Lucky eggs and star pieces and looking only for battle than Special Box is for you, if you make 3 purchase of Special Box you get 18 Passes while in the ultra box you get only 15.

As you’d expect, however, the other items in the Ultra Box do make it the best overall value of the three boxes if you take the non-purchasable items into account. If you can afford it, go for the Ultra Box

Just when we thought we won’t be having an event in the coming weeks, Niantic has surprised us all.

And that too by announcing a new Event specially for Fighting Types, and it’s called Special Battle Showdown

As we write this post the event is already live!! And you might be seeing some interesting things happen until the 14th of May, as the event ends.

Here’s a Quick Summary of what will be changing during this event:

  • More Spawns of Fighting Type Pokemon.
  • Event Lasts until 14th May
  • 2X Bonus XP for GBattlesles and Raid Battles.
  • Guaranteed 3000 Stardust for Participating in a Raid Battle.

Here’s what Niantic announced on their official Pokemon GO Site:

Trainers,

It’s time to test the strength of your Pokémon during a special battle event! Fighting-type Pokémon, such as Machop and Makuhita, will appear more frequently in the wild starting May 1 at 1:00 p.m. PDT.

But what’s a battle celebration without some competition at your nearby Gym? Until May 14, you’ll receive 2× bonus XP for Gym Battles and Raid Battles. Plus, Raid Battles will also award a guaranteed 3,000 Stardust for participating—and at least one Rare Candy if you win!

Several actions at Gyms will yield bonuses, including a 2× Badge multiplier, so you can receive even more benefits at a Gym you visit frequently. Just stopping by? Spinning the Photo Disc at Gyms will also yield more items!

Our Battle Showdown is sure to pack a punch, so don’t miss it!
