[Image ID: Four digital pictures depicting. A blue haired, yellow-eyed cartoon character with the Pokémon Ditto. In the first image the character is delivering a flower bouquet on yellow rollerblades while Ditto holds letters for the recipient. The next image shows the duo enjoying a burger lunch, with Ditto assuming the shape of a burger. The next image is the duo in motion, with Ditto assuming the form of a bird Pokémon carrying packages behind the character delivering letters. The last is both characters facing the viewer, throwing the ‘peace’ sign. /.End ID]

Episode 37 - Ditto and the Copycat Girl

Taking shelter from a rainstorm in the mysterious Mimic House/House of Imite, where they meet a young girl about Ash's age named Imite/Duplica. She's raising the gimmick Pokemon Ditto!

Ash offends Duplica by implying that Ditto doesn't sound like a very good Pokemon and she challenges him to a match. He's right in his assessment; Ditto's Transform gimmick is neat, but having to burn a turn using it while your opponent gets a free move in means you're ultimately always trying to use the same approach your opponent's using but a turn behind.

Sorry, Duplica, but Ditto is always at a disadvantage in every possible encounter by design. Competitively, they're among the worst Pokemon ever. Your opponent pretty much has to be a total clod to lose to them.

This is a fight Ash should easily win. Naturally, that means he loses. Ditto imitates Bulbasaur, then defeats Bulbasaur with their own Vine Whip after Razor Leaf, a move with 95% accuracy, misses. Stupid cheating game.

Follow Duplica's lucky victory, she reveals that she's not actually trying to be a competitive Trainer. Her aspiration is to perform costume shows to entertain passing travelers. However, her Ditto has an unfortunate quirk that prevents them from being able to properly imitate a Pokemon: They can't copy faces.

Then Team Rocket shows up and steals Ditto. They have a plan: If they can get Ditto to impersonate the Dratini from the banned Safari Zone episode, they can defraud Giovanni into thinking they're good at their jobs. (I love these assholes. XD)

But before they do that, Jessie uses Ditto to make a grown-up Deepfake of her first childhood boyfriend out of curiosity. Due to Ditto's quirk, this does not go well.

Team Rocket manages to solve Ditto's problem, fortunately. It turns out, all they needed to be able to Transform fully was some good ol' violent threats and abuse. Heartwarming?

Team Rocket is fended off, of course. But the fruits of their efforts mean Duplica and her Ditto are able to reopen the Mimic House for passing travelers! Some actual net-positive as a result of these hucksters for once!

hello everyone I am here with some Kirby-inspired Digifakes I made with help from @arancia-con-un-coltello. I think I did really good at mimicking the Digimon artstyle!

reference book entries below the readmore

Kabimon~"A Fairy Digimon that's always smiling. It has a sunny disposition, and brings cheer where it goes. It becomes violent when hungry, but will always return to its pleasant demeanor upon eating. Despite its cute appearance, it conceals a devastating strength. Its Special Move, Copy, allows it to catch enemy attacks in its mouth and to fire them back."

Terminamon Core~"A fearsome Demon Digimon that is the true form of Terminamon. Though small, especially in comparison to its projected body, it possesses an unimaginable power of destruction. It is said that should Terminamon ever be released, the universe would come to an end. Its Special Moves include a dark wave that drives creatures to madness (Animosity Void), and a piercing laser that annihilates anything in its path (Ashes to Ashes)."

Waddlemon~"A hardy species of Digimon. They can be found throughout every corner of the Digital World, commonly clustering around strong Digimon. They will gather food for said stronger Digimon in exchange for protection. Its Special Move is Overload Swarm, where the full pack of Waddlemon all rush an enemy at once."

ParaWaddlemon~"A variant species of Waddlemon that took up a weapon. It defends its pack in lieu of a leader. Its Special Move, Parasol Drill, can crack the armor of tough enemies and break down walls to allow the pack to pass through."

Doomon~"A solitary species of Digimon. It's theorized to be related to Waddlemon, but it's uncertain how much truth is in this statement. It does not travel with Waddlemon packs, instead striking off on its own or with other Virus Digimon. Its Special Move is Cycle Beam, where it shoots a blast of light from its eye."

EmperorPenmon~"A Bird Digimon that lives in the frigid tundras of the Digital World. It is a fierce defender of its friends, and is thus a popular choice of ruler for Waddlemon packs. It swings its massive hammer at any who attempt to harm its pack, but is very easy to trick. Its Special Move is bringing its hammer down on the enemy (Royal Payback). This move is particularly effective when EmperorPenmon is enraged."

MaskedPenmon~"A Bird Digimon from the frozen tundra, donning a mask of metal and stone. It forms a hammer with sturdy stones, and then freezes it together with aid from Hexeblaumon. It laughs boisterously as it sends enemies flying with its hammer, but becomes vicious if its allies are harmed. Its Special Move is Rocket Hammer, where it slams its hammer into an enemy with all its strength."

Metamon~"A Warrior Digimon with bladed wings. It is an aerial fighter, who uses its sharp boots and blades to slice enemies. However, it is also honorable, and refrains from dirty tricks and death blows when able to. Its Special Move is a dual slash with its wings, which fire waves of dark energy (Crescent Slash)."

MechaKnightmon~"A Cyborg Digimon that's been modified by an outside source. It loathes its modifications, and sometimes can even be seen attempting to claw them off outside of battle. Despite this, it shows no qualms with taking advantage of these weapons in fights, making it a vicious fighter. Its Special Moves include blasting enemies with its electric arm cannons (Galaxia Beam), and ripping the enemy apart with its blades and claws (Crescent Frenzy)."

trainer tips: spotting ditto and zorua in scarlet and violet

things i've noticed by obsessively examining every wild pokemon in areas with ditto and/or zorua available:

the transformed pokemon generally behave the same- which tends to be unusual for the pokemon they're copying

transformed pokemon tend to be out of place somehow, be it a pineco hopping around on the ground or a sawsbuck by itself

transformed pokemon are docile, so a good indicator is a hostile pokemon who leaves you be. for example, a tauros or primeape who doesn't charge

transformed pokemon are, of course, not the pokemon they appear to be, so they tend to exhibit behaviors that would be odd. see above, but also something like a cyclizar who just walks around instead of going into bike mode

transformed pokemon tend to not be timid, so a dunsparce that doesn't nervously dig away is also a good indication

and finally, my number 1 tip:

hold the ZL button. it will tell you if a pokemon is a ditto or a zorua.

in japanese, ditto is メタモン (metamon) and zorua is ゾロア (zorua) - if anyone else would benefit from this knowledge specifically.

edit to add these, bc they're helpful but i forgot:

pokemon that react to a trainer with ! will always react with ? if transformed

a transformed pokemon posing as sudowoodo will not run away as soon as you get close to it

a transformed pokemon posing as foongus will not do the thing where foongus lets out a cry and thrust the pokeball mushroom top at you. because it is not foongus.

You fuckers want a Steel Hybrid Fusion?

Metamon! Named after the angel Metatron found in Jewish texts. The angel is associated with the top sphere of Sephirothmon aka Keter. Can also be named after Metal.

... it's over.

the dust settles, & the referee declares the final pokémon unable to battle, & thus, the winner is clear.

the metamon slumps in relaxation just as the call is made, & satoshi swiftly calls it back with a thank you. he looks to his opponent. his challenger.

he ignores the stadium for now. he smiles & approaches ree. goes to shake hands, grip firm & acknowledging of ree's strength. & he takes their wrist with his other hand, releases the handshake only to raise their arm high, turning his grin to the crowd.

❛ everyone, give it up for ree !! for the incredible battles they showed us !! ❜

they deserve the attention far more than satoshi right now. they overcame far more. they fought a lot harder.

satoshi turns back to ree, & his grin is ten million volts bright. ❛ you'll get me next time. i'm proud of you. ❜ he means every damn syllable of it.

[A video is uploaded! Watch it?

It's a bright night. The stars over the Great Marsh twinkle invitingly as Mimibiri takes his time looking up at them; only sinking down as a small trail of smoke rises into the air. The camera pans down on the newest episode of Swamp Meshi!

Ishii's crouching down in a comfortable position, what seems to be a small mortar and pestle settled on her knee as she grinds something together. Macapuno is perched up on her head, head swiveling around as she watches a couple bugs flit around. There's a small metal cooking rack, propped up above a fire; on top of that, there's what seems to be half of a filleted Magikarp.

The other half is getting worked on by the massive Typhlosion resting behind the whole cooking setup. Small bursts of fire crispen the meat the skin as Nifūn lazily gnaws on it. Ishii whistles, pointing at the cooking fire with the end of the pestle. A small burst of fire keeps the Magikarp cooking.

"Trainer season gets on my fucking nerves sometimes," Ishii starts, after glancing up to make sure the camera was rolling. (She's speaking Sinnohian dialect, and will through the entire video.) "I don't- I just don't get it sometimes. Dialga's sake-"

She paused to take the concoction she was grinding, showing it off to the camera. "Dried Monjara vines- don't tell my brother- salt, some fun’ība that I found, dried garlic. Makes the Koiking healthier. Trust me."

She shifts her position to pat the seasoning on the Magikarp, wincing slightly as she directly touches the actively cooking fish. What the hell, Ishii.

"Anyway- what was I- Timecursed fucking trainer season! I help out- the rangers know me well enough- with keeping an eye on shit here in the Marsh sometimes. Right. And- since this is the Marsh- there are fairly strict rules about what Pokemon you're- you know- allowed to catch or hunt." A beat. "Koiking spawn like Metamon don't worry about them."

She shook her head, taking a moment to lean away somewhere off camera, shouting a little as if that would make her voice pick up any better. "A lot of the wild Pokemon here- Don't really NEED that protection." She comes back on-screen with a sheet of tinfoil, covering the cooking Karp with it before settling back down to sit and watch it cook. "Like- Nuoh, Mukkuru, Bippa, they're not REALLY the big concern. We keep more of an eye on Pokemon like... Gokulin, Tropius, Kakureon, Garura... but since not EVERY Pokemon out here is on the endangered species list, a lot of trainers'll just assume none of them are."

She wiped her hands off on her tank top, before rubbing at her face in an exasperated manner. "I'm out in the deeper part of the marshwood, right? Macapuno and I are getting her dinner, and I hear some kid- not even Sinnohian- running and shouting, like- Mimibiri, what was it again?"

Mimibiri's electric voice beeps out of the phone: "kangaskhan."

"Right, that; "Kangaskhan, nooo, nandakanda, I don't know I don't speak Unovan... but, you know, trying to chase down this poor Garura. Pokemon was lucky enough to run past me, so I'm able to stop him chasing it like hey, what in Dialga's tailfins are you doing?? This kid doesn't even speak Sinnohian- why are you doing this fucking region's Gym circuit then??- so Mimibiri needs to live translate, and he's mad at me about doing his job, and it's just..."

She turned back around, rustling for something for a moment, before displaying some sort of brochure with a Yanma and Wooper on the front. "It SAYS! In the fucking--" she yanked it open to a page on Kangaskhan- "In the pamphlet- look!"

She lets the camera focus in on some (a little too closely zoomed-in) Kanji that read: "... let the wild Garura come to you! Garura have incredibly strong communal bonds, and will only seek... ...most likely to want to join a Team when it's child is 6 months old, though prospective Trainers should keep in mind it's leaving the mother when about three...."

"But nooo," she rolled her eyes, stuffing pamphlet back away. "The Professor gave me a fucking Pochama so I can go do whatever I want... Who even needs to be able to read..."

There's a long beat as she looks up at the sky, gently scritching Macapuno on the side of her head before taking a peek at her roasting fish. She takes a long stick to poke at the fire, spreading the coals.

"I think I, personally, should be allowed to kick people out of the Marsh. Leave it to me. We'll solve the littering issue in fourty-eight hours."

A couple minutes of Ishii wordlessly cooking before the video finally ends.]

[dojae-huh]

So some think Jaehyun winning Metamon was about JaeWoo? Then why is he holding a bunny and a cat, and not a puppy, in addition to a Metamon bag and a plushie (purple, not the pink one)?

Video of Jae rummaging the boxes.

The cat is probably supposed to be a pink fennec fox, heh, but it doesn't look like one.
