Cry

[[Category:Normal-type Pokémon]][[Category:Generation I Pokémon]] [[Category:Purple Pokémon]] Ditto (Japanese: メタモン Metamon) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Ditto are unique, as their only attack is Transform. They use this attack to copy the stats (except HP), moves (only 5 power points), types, and the appearance of the opponent. Another reason that they are unique is that Ditto can breed with any Pokémon in a Day Care Center regardless of its gender, except other Ditto.

Appearance

Ditto's appearance is very plain. It is a simple pinkish purple, amorphous blob, though it can be changed via Transform. A shiny Ditto is blue as opposed the normal purple. Ditto's cry is also known to be the same as Poliwag's cry in the game series.

In the anime

Ditto's first appearance was on IL037 wherein a Trainer named Duplica owned one.

Trivia

Ditto's cry is similar to Poliwag's.
Ditto makes an appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
In Generation IV, it's possible, by glitch, for Ditto to learn copied moves permanently by transforming into a Pokémon which knows Rage.
If a Ditto battles a Ditto, they would both keep on using Transform until one of them eventually runs out of PP and uses Struggle.
Ditto can be only paralyzed when in the transformed mode.
Ditto's dictionary definition is "to duplicate".
Ditto is sometimes thought to be a failed attempt at cloning Mew. This is because they're both genderless, weigh 8.8 lbs., have similar base stats, and have the same normal and shiny colors.
- In Pokemon Red, Ditto is also commonly found in the lab that Mewtwo experimentation is being done.
