Ako Philosophy: Ditto (Teacher Edition)

 

 Conceptual Breakdown

Ditto:

 noun 

the same thing again (used in lists and accounts and often indicated by a ditto mark under the word or figure to be repeated).

• Informal

used to indicate that something already said is applicable a second time.

“if one folds his arms, so does the other; if one crosses his legs, ditto”

Ditto (メタモン, Metamon)

is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. 

Ditto will transform into anything it sees, even inanimate objects. When it sees an enemy, it will change its DNA code to math theirs. 

It avoids being attacked while sleeping by changing its appearance to look like a rock. 

While trying to transform into something from memory, it will get details wrong. They will try to befriend other Pokémon by transforming into one of their kind. 

Ditto is capable of transforming itself into anything perfectly. However, it only knows one move, Transform, and when battling, it will transform into the opponent's Pokémon. 

In the anime and the movies, it has been shown that it will keep its face if it transforms into a human, and when it transforms into a large Pokémon, it will be smaller. 

Its transformation will fail if it is made to laugh. 

Some Ditto are better at transforming than others. 

Ditto does not evolve BUT it does change through generations and this is similar to my teaching framework - I don't evolve physically, but I transform in my thinking = adapt
