This article is about the Pokémon, Ditto, and its appearance in Melee. For the term used to define matches where both players choose the same character, see Ditto match.

Ditto (メタモン, Metamon), is a fictional creature from the Pokémon series.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Ditto is a Pokémon that was removed from Super Smash Bros. Melee just prior to its release. Its purpose was to create an AI copy of the user's character, which would aid them in battle. The reason for the removal of Ditto is unknown; however, it did have an entry in the game's official strategy guide, suggesting that Ditto was a late cut to Melee.

Ditto can still be accessed using the debug menu through an Action Replay, where it is known internally as METAMON. When summoned from a Poké Ball, it simply says "Mon-mon!", stretches out while spinning, then disappears. It also deals around 7-8% damage to whoever touches it while it is spinning, with weak knockback.

As a Tournament Mode element

In Tournament Mode, in either Winner Out or Loser Out style tournaments, when selecting a character for these events, the player can hold down L+R and then press A to select a random character. The character will appear as Ditto and will be a random character and color when each match begins.

Trophy information

Ditto is featured as a collectible trophy, randomly obtained in the Trophy Lottery.

Ditto

Every Ditto has the ability to copy a Pokémon's entire cell structure in an instant and become its exact replica. They're terrible at remembering techniques, but when they use Transform, they temporarily learn all of their foe's moves. If a Ditto starts to laugh, it weakens and can't hold its transformation.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Ditto was confirmed in the August Nintendo Direct to appear as a Poké Ball Pokémon. When it appears, it will transform into a purple version of a fighter, acting as a CPU player and taking their physical appearance. Players and Assist Trophies alike can attack the clone.

Origin

From Bulbapedia.

Ditto is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Its only move in every game is Transform which allows it to turn into a copy of its opponent, though while keeping its own original HP. The effect disappears when switching out or finishing the battle. In Generation V it received the Hidden Ability Imposter, which makes it transform automatically upon entering the battle.

Trivia

  • Ditto is the only Pokémon in Ultimate that can be defeated.
