How to obtain a 0 Attack IV ditto?
I'm doing a test in pokemon village because my ditto friend safari is lost. I have a fainted synchronize Quiet Ralts in 1st slot. I know that for level they are at in pokemon village, I need the exact speed star of a 0 IV, winning a speed tie means it has the 0 Speed IV. I also know that for testing HP IVs you need a pokemon with final gambit that is sure to outspeed the pokemon and with 1 hp less than desired. How would I go about testing for attack stat? Using foul play?

The only sure fire method I can think of, as Ditto's attacks are entirely given by Transform, is to have a Pokemon with only one move, and use it's stats, along with the damage calculator, to figure out a scenario where if the Ditto has 0 attack IV that move will always deal a set amount of damage, different than if Ditto had any other IV value. Good luck finding this combination though, you'll probably find it quicker to simply catch every Ditto that matches the other things you're looking for and have them rated for that 1/32 chance.

A Pokemon cannot Transform into an already Transformed Pokemon, so the slower Ditto will retain all of its PP and will Struggle last. 0 Speed IVs with a Relaxed nature aim to create the slowest untransformed Ditto.Why is Ditto 0 IV?
Once we have a Brave Rhyhorn, we need to get 0 Speed IVs. This part can be tricky, as IVs are usually random. The best way to do this is to find a Ditto with 5 perfect IVs and a 0 Speed IV. We can get this by trading, or catching Dittos in Max Raid Battles until we get lucky with the IVs.HOW TO BREED FOR 0 IVs IN POKEMON SWORD AND POKEMON SHIELD
