Hello there! I'm Professor Willow, a leading expert in Pokémon research. I've dedicated my life to understanding these fascinating creatures, and I'm happy to share my knowledge with you today.
You're asking a question that many trainers ponder: Do Shiny Dittos breed Shiny Pokémon? Let's delve into the intricacies of Pokémon breeding and genetics to uncover the truth.
First, we need to understand what makes a Pokémon Shiny. Shininess is a rare genetic variation that causes a Pokémon to have a different coloration than its regular counterparts. Think of it like a rare allele in genetics. This trait is incredibly rare, with the standard odds of encountering a Shiny Pokémon being a minuscule 1 in 4,096!
Now, onto Ditto, the Transform Pokémon. Ditto is truly unique in its ability to breed with any Pokémon that can breed, regardless of gender. This is because Ditto can use the move "Transform" to become a perfect copy of its breeding partner.
When two Pokémon breed, they pass down their genes to their offspring. The offspring inherit a combination of these genes, which determines their traits, including Shininess. However, and this is crucial, Shininess is not directly passed down like other traits.
Here's where the misconception lies: A Shiny Ditto does not guarantee a Shiny offspring. Let me explain why.
While a Shiny Ditto possesses the Shiny gene, remember that breeding involves two parents. The offspring inherits genes from both parents. Therefore, even if a Shiny Ditto breeds with a non-Shiny Pokémon, the chances of the offspring being Shiny remain incredibly low, effectively the same as encountering one in the wild.
Furthermore, breeding a Shiny Ditto with another Shiny Pokémon does not guarantee a Shiny offspring either. While the probability of producing a Shiny offspring is slightly higher in this scenario, it's still a game of chance determined by the complex interplay of genetics.
Think of it like flipping a coin. Just because you flip heads once doesn't guarantee heads on the next flip. Similarly, just because one parent is Shiny doesn't automatically mean the offspring will inherit that rare genetic variation.
However, there are ways to increase your odds of hatching a Shiny Pokémon. The Masuda method, which involves breeding Pokémon from different regions, and the Shiny Charm, a key item obtained by completing the Pokédex, can significantly boost your chances of encountering these elusive creatures.
To summarize, a Shiny Ditto does not guarantee Shiny offspring. Shininess is a complex genetic trait determined by chance, and while using a Shiny Ditto might slightly increase the odds, it's not a surefire method.

Yes, it is possible to hatch a shiny even if one of the parents is Ditto, it is no different than breeding with other Pok��mon, the chance will still be 1/4096. ... So for example, if you have a Japanese Ditto and breed it with an American Charmander, then the chances of hatching a shiny are increased.
