Hey pat, some validation for you - You are genuinely putting out great fucking content, almost daily, and its immensely useful and helpful for new players and old alike. we appreciate your hard work, i can see you growing exponentially.
yo pat, there's also the assist+false swipe method. You basically have a Smeargle and a spore mon like Paras with no other moves in your party. You can catch the ditto in turn 3
@@Solush. I like to use it, because it has the double purpouse to be used as a secondary payday user: you put it in a team with 5 meowth with assist, feint, pay day and thief and you could reduce the travels back to The PC (only pay day can be called by assist)
Recently I've made myself a different strat for catching dittos I use a smeargle with ~90 atk with substitute/payday/yawn/false swipe where you catch dittos by using moves in that order. The advantage is that first off, the smeargle can use payday on a ditto without ko'ing it so you can make some extra cash even from ditto encounters. Second, yawn makes it so you're guaranteed the chance to throw 2 balls before the ditto wakes up because unlike spore, yawn puts the ditto to sleep at the end of its turn. Third, using payday gives you 4 turns rather than 3 before you start throwing balls, so timer ball has better catch rates. This has downsides, however; loudreds will require to be 2-shot to be ko'd or brought to 1 hp and you need to run leftovers and sit through their animations to afford substitutes
@@patrouski Np. I think the same principles apply when catching pokemon with 50%+ encounter rate. i.e. I have another similar smeargle dedicated to only catch smeargles. I run hyper voice with enough SpA evs to 1shot hordes for a benched xp share mon
@@lucassykim Theres a ton of options under my money making playlist i reccomend checking out on my channel, but my top 3 are usually ditto, pikachu and torkoal.
Started playing PokeMMO when I got COVID around late September last year. Glad to see Patrouski’s channel grow since I first saw his channel last year when I was a new player Kudos man!
Getting ready to run hoen as my second region mosty to unlock ditto farming. Love the videos brother its so nice to know if I have a question odds are you have an answer posted allready! Even if you don't I just hop in the discord. I am pumped for season 3 of road to!
using a poke with Synchronize with a nature adamant/modest, a magikarp and a catch Smeargle it will be worse? assuming you get lucky and catch a 1x31 with a good nat every 10 minutes
Useful video .Thank u Patrouski . Can you do a more in-depth video on egg shunting later on since u have many shinies from egg shunting 😁? I want to learn more from an expert like u
if u do this theres a good chance of the ditto waking up and transforming into breloom and then u can no longer spore it and u just have to run from the battle at tht point, it can save time but its less consistent. People usually end up using smeargle for that strat and then the ditto can wake up and spore YOU, wasting countless turns.
My strat: Lead with a mon that can run away from any unwanted pokebattles. When you encounter Ditto, swap into magikarp that only knows splash, after Ditto transforms into that useless magikarp, swap in your catching mon, false swipe, Spore, timer/dusk ball.
@@patrouski I've been using timer balls since I use breloom. I haven't done the Unova region yet, so I don't have cheap access to Dusk Balls. Thanks for replying pat. You're the best, man. Looking forward to your 2023 guide video.

Thank you for such an unbelievably kind and loving comment

Very important! I used to use the assist method for years. Finally saved up enough for a nice Breloom.
You could use weavile instead of smeargle, has higher attack
@@danielmachado4389 yeah there are a few options to choose from, weavile probably being the one with the most attack

gotta admit thats a pretty near strat! Nice dedication to it and thanks for sharing

Really happy to see this guide updated! I may give this a shot!
Lmao I’m in desert underpass right now catching dittos and this video came in clutch omg
I commented on farm de ditto in your last live, thanks for making a video about it.
Great content bro, I lucked out and got a 3x31 shroomish on the GTL for 3500 and evolved him to breloom. He's a poke catching machine now.
ayy gz!

Poison heal procs so fast, when I use it in battle it doesn't even look like I took dmg 😂
enjoyed this!

morning pat. im on a shiny staryu hunt with my brother
Useful video .Thank u Patrouski .
Can you do a more in-depth video on egg shunting later on since u have many shinies from egg shunting 😁? I want to learn more from an expert like u
u basically buy dittos and male cheat mons from the same egg group and start hatching
Patrouski da 🐐 no 🧢
doesnt your smeargle need technician
alas, i have been waiting for the new method for catching dittos
god i love your channel so much
ty
Where do I get the different poke balls?
The different big department stores in each region
@@tomhailey3372 thank you
will you ever start a series on pokeone?
it’s possible but pokemmo will always heavily be my main focus.
no need to use dig just disconnect then u be back on pc with fullhp pokemon
What's the best way to level up breloom?
Everyone go hunt dittos! I need some cheaper dittos for my shiny porygon/beldum hunt :)
If possible just use both
"i would not recommend catching females it's probably just going to be a waste of time at that point i would always just payday them" 💀
IN POKEMMO!
facts
It’s morning for you and night for me lol good night or I mean good morning
u can also go only spore and fallse swap
if u do this theres a good chance of the ditto waking up and transforming into breloom and then u can no longer spore it and u just have to run from the battle at tht point, it can save time but its less consistent. People usually end up using smeargle for that strat and then the ditto can wake up and spore YOU, wasting countless turns.
Is this still the best pokemon to catch for profit?
yes in my opinion
Can I ask, I can't spore ditto because of it's ability limber. Is something wrong?
Limber shouldnt stop spore, only paralyze? Let me know if im missing something.
@@patrouski ohhhhhh, my mistake. My breloom have the stun spore 😅
Timer ball went up in price f
good video needed this shit. Patrouski listen to Execution 1999 by Black Smurf also, shit is a bop
Where can I buy a timer ball for 800$???my costs 1200$ :(
They changed the price and are now 1200 😭
What will you do on a bunch of dittos? And how to make a ditto box? I'm a newbie and new subscriber thanks
ruclips.net/video/BPvmUPvLcZ0/видео.html
i don’t have the cave unlocked how do I do that???
u gotta beat the e4 in hoenn
timer ball now costs 1200 pokeyen
yep
nice

Sup pat
thx bruh
Shouldn't repeat balls be better?
repeat balls cost 150 yen more than dusk balls and have the same catch rate of 2.5x. Dusk balls are best for dittos atm, 2023 ditto guide coming soon!

@Anca Crișan its on the way :D
All I use is a smearfle with false swipe and splash 😂🤷
thats why i like parasect because it can learn dig ;)
