[[Duplica]]'s Ditto first appeared in ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]'', in the form of a {{p|Pikachu}} and playing with {{OP|Ash|Pikachu}}. However, its face was different to other Pikachu, leading the others to believe that it was a new {{OBP|Pokémon|species|species}}. Excited, Ash tried to capture it, but Duplica revealed herself and that her Pokémon was in fact a Ditto. Ash doubted Ditto's ability in battle, but accepted Duplica's challenge. Ditto easily defeated [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Vine Whip}}. | |||

With help from {{TP|James|Weezing}}, they succeeded in stealing Ditto. However, Ditto was incapable to meet their demands, transforming into a mutation between a man and a Dratini, then into a book instead of the Dratini pictured. When forced to turn into a {{p|Meowth}}, Ditto was so intimidated that it rubs its face and transforms correctly. | ||

Team Rocket tried to pass off {{MTR}} as Ditto whilst they escaped, but Duplica could tell the difference despite the transformation. Duplica threw Meowth at Team Rocket, causing Ditto to fall free. It transformed into a cannon and blasted Pikachu at the balloon, who caused Team Rocket to blast off. Now that Ditto could transform perfectly, Duplica reopened her theater for performances. | ||
====Johto==== | |||
Ditto made another appearance in ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]'', disguised as a {{p|Chansey}}. Once {{an|Brock}} caught Duplica out for impersonating [[Nurse Joy]], Duplica revealed herself and told the group that they were there for an acting competition. Once Duplica's new Ditto, Mini-Dit, was stolen, Ditto transformed into {{p|Noctowl}} to help search, but to no avail. When the group did discover Team Rocket, Ditto transformed into {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and used {{m|Wrap}} to keep Weezing out of the battle. It then transformed back into Pikachu and teamed up with Ash's Pikachu and Mini-Dit in the form of Pikachu to send Team Rocket blasting off with {{m|Thunder}}. | |||
Ditto | ==Personality and characteristics== | ||
Ditto is the master of transforming into many other species, including items as shown when Ditto was in {{TRT}}'s custody during its first appearance. At first, when Ditto transformed, the transformed being retained Ditto's face. This happened until {{MTR}} wiped it off and retained the face of the Pokémon it transformed into. Ditto is also a powerful battler, being able to defeat {{AP|Bulbasaur}} with ease. | |||

Ditto appears in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] as the Pokémon of Duplica. Duplica used Ditto and its ability to transform to perform in a show in a Pokémon Center. After the show, {{an|Misty}} congratulates them on their great performance. Misty also showed extreme interest in catching a Ditto despite her being a {{type|Water}} Trainer, much Ditto's nervousness. | |||
While [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]], {{an|Brock}}, [[A.J.]], and the [[Samurai]] talk about a hidden village they plan on going to, Misty and Duplica go over to tell them that they intend on going out so Misty can catch a Ditto of her own. When Ash mocks her for wanting a Ditto, Misty has Ditto transform into a poor imitation of Ash so she can beat him up while acting like she has no idea which is which. | While [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]], {{an|Brock}}, [[A.J.]], and the [[Samurai]] talk about a hidden village they plan on going to, Misty and Duplica go over to tell them that they intend on going out so Misty can catch a Ditto of her own.
