Ditto is a cute character in the anime-based title. What makes him unique from other pocket monsters is his ability to shapeshift.

This means that he can copy anything he can think of, especially other characters. He is considered the perfect Pokemon for the new April Fools' 2-Oh-2 event, thanks to this power.
