I am having trouble finding a Ditto on Route 218.
Does the PokeRadar have to be used to catch him?

Ditto

As you are leaving Canalave City (on route 218) there is a patch of grass just outside the city, you must use the Poke Radar in that grass, and some grass will wiggle. Every now and again there is a slight chance that a ditto will battle you. (12%)
It's not very common, and can take some times to find.

>In Pokemon Diamond, Ditto can be found at Route 218 with Poké Radar having 12% of rarity!

This also works for Pearl but not for Platinum.

Hope this helps!

For those of you reading this in the future, Ditto is only in the sparkly grass, not the kind that just gently shakes.
