Ditto strongly resembles an {{wp|amoeba}}, a single-celled organism with no definite shape. This may emphasize its ability to alter its cellular composition. This could also explain why Ditto is unavailable through breeding, since single-celled organisms reproduce differently from multi-cellular plants and animals. It may also be based on an {{wp|undifferentiated cell}}, a cell in the body that can change into any other cell by sampling it. It could also have been based on a {{wp|blob}} or a rubber ball. | Ditto strongly resembles an {{wp|amoeba}}, a single-celled organism with no definite shape.

In the sixth issue of {{wp|Best Buy}}'s @Gamer magazine, Game Freak developers Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori revealed that Ditto was originally based off of the iconic {{wp|smiley}} face. | |||
