When summoned from a Poké Ball, it says "Mon-mon!" and stretches out while spinning, then disappears. Fighters that touch Ditto while it spins get around 7-8% damage, with weak knockback. Its voice clip is from the Japanese version of ''Pokémon'' anime episode 37. | ||

Ditto | Ditto was confirmed in the August Nintendo Direct to appear as a Poké Ball Pokémon. When it appears, it will {{iw|bulbapedia|transform|move}} into a purple version of the summoning fighter, acting as a CPU player and taking their physical appearance, with the only difference being a purple gelatinous texture. Players and Assist Trophies alike can attack the clone. Ditto can be defeated, but doing so will not score a point. It is also the only Poké Ball Pokémon in the game who can be defeated. The AI for Ditto appears to be comparable to a low-level regular CPU, often standing still for periods of time and attempting individual attacks only, much like the behaviour of many other Poké Ball Pokémon. It also takes more knockback than regular fighters. However, its attacks deal 1.1× regular damage to compensate. It cannot be summoned during an [[8-Player Smash|8-Player match]] but it still can be summoned with 7 players or lower. | ||
