I Caught A Ditto!

It all started when my mom was showing my brother; of whom is on vacation as he is in college, our Christmas lights we decided to set up early this year while the weather was warm. The Thanksgiving event is in place right now so my mom decided to catch a Rattata for the event bonuses, and hopefully a recorded breaking tiny Rattata for the badge. 

Moments later she looks at her screen to see if the Rattata was small enough to count toward the achievement and this happened! 


I am not sure of and strategies of coming across one of these because it looked like any other Rattata, there wasn't anything off about it. The best/ fastest way of getting one of these long sought for failed experiments is simply by catching everything you come across. 

Please let me know if you have or know of someone who also has a Ditto. This is the first of even hearing about it, and I'm glad to say that I too am one who actually has a Ditto, maybe one of few?

Pokemon known to transform thus far:

Pokemon Go Improved Traking

In this update, the nearby tab has been updated. There now is a nearby along with a sighting. Still learning a bit about the new tracking system, it seems they whole things isn't working for everyone at the moment. Some only see the sighting section of the new and "improved" tracking system, while other see both features. I can't say much on the nearby feature because it doesn't work for me. Hopefully, though things work and Pokemon can now be easier to track. 
 Along with implementing a new tracker, there is now a "safer" way for player who drive. All though anyone can just tap the "I'm a Passenger" to allow the game to work after traveling so fast, it was more of a safety for Niantic more than the players. By approving you are a passenger so you can still play the game on the road, if by chance you are actually driving and playing, then it basically waves Niantic from any and all responsibility from those who choose to play the game while driving. All though Niantic still wasn't to blame for people playing and driving, it's now official that Niantic can't be blamed for stupidity of the players, though it will still happen.

The accuracy bug was also fixed in this update. For those who don't know what the bug was, basically experience wasn't given to those who threw a nice, great, or excellent. At first many thought the feature was taken out of the game because people were leveling too fast (not sure how that theory came about leveling is balanced coming from someone who plays a handful of MMO's).
