Evolution

Ditto does not evolve, and nothing evolves into it.

In the ROM hacks it evolves differently

Each guide's own line, in the words its creator published.

Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

Red / BlueCapable of copying an enemy's genetic code to instantly transform itself into a duplicate of the enemy.
YellowWhen it spots an enemy, its body transfigures into an almost perfect copy of its oppo­ nent.
Gold / HeartGoldIt can transform into anything. When it sleeps, it changes into a stone to avoid being attacked.
SilverIts transformation ability is per­ fect. However, if made to laugh, it can't maintain its disguise.
CrystalWhen it encount­ ers another DITTO, it will move faster than normal to duplicate that opponent exactly.
Ruby / SapphireDITTO rearranges its cell structure to transform itself into other shapes. However, if it tries to transform itself into something by relying on its memory, this POKéMON manages to get details wrong.
EmeraldA DITTO rearranges its cell structure to transform itself. However, if it tries to change based on its memory, it will get details wrong.
FireRedIt can freely recombine its own cellular structure to transform into other life- forms.
LeafGreenCapable of copying an opponent’s genetic code to instantly transform itself into a duplicate of the enemy.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / White / XIt has the ability to reconstitute its entire cellular structure to transform into whatever it sees.
SoulSilverIts transformation ability is perfect. However, if made to laugh, it can’t maintain its disguise.
Black 2 / White 2It can reconstitute its entire cellular structure to change into what it sees, but it returns to normal when it relaxes.
YIt can freely recombine its own cellular structure to transform into other life-forms.
Omega Ruby / Alpha SapphireDitto rearranges its cell structure to transform itself into other shapes. However, if it tries to transform itself into something by relying on its memory, this Pokémon manages to get details wrong.
SunIt can reorganize its cells to make itself into a duplicate of anything it sees. The quality of the duplicate depends on the individual.
MoonWith its astonishing capacity for metamorphosis, it can get along with anything. It does not get along well with its fellow Ditto.
Ultra SunWhile it can transform into anything, each Ditto apparently has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to transformations.
Ultra MoonIt transforms into whatever it sees. If the thing it’s transforming into isn’t right in front of it, Ditto relies on its memory—so sometimes it fails.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
