"Use Ditto to Discover Raid Boss Move Set"

#PokemonGO: I'm fairly certain this idea is not new but I don't recall reading a post on it. As the title states, you can use Ditto to discover the Raid Boss move set. This can be incredibly useful if you are short handed and would prefer to not fail on the first attempt due to choosing the wrong counters.I do this by entering the raid under Private Group. Ditto is set to the first slot in the Battle Party. Once the battle begins and immediately after Ditto transforms, I can then simply read the Charge Move that Ditto now has. Given that a Raid Boss can have 1 of only 2 different Fast moves, it's relatively easy to discern which of the two it is.Additionally, since I'm the only one in the raid, dodging doesn't glitch out which saves me a Revive as long as I leave the battle quickly enough before my Ditto takes too much damage (easily accomplished because the Raid Boss doesn't have enough time to use a Charge move).The information is then shared with my group and we choose the appropriate counters. I'm sure I'm not the only one that does this but I'm also curious. What other creative ways have you used a Ditto? via /r/TheSilphRoad https://ift.tt/2zMRnCe
