Chris and Victor searched through their pokemon data files on their computer all night. But they couldn't find anything to explain the strange phenomenon they had just witnessed. There appeared to be no explanation for the strange pokemon that had seemed to be a Ditto.

'There's no way we can work this out without researching the pokemon,' said Victor. 'This is going to be hard, but we're going to have to make Ditto transform into it before it gets to do whatever it did to make it look like a Ditto.'

'It would be easier if we could catch it,' Chris pointed out. 'I mean, there's only so much we can work out from a Ditto that's transformed. And besides, it'll turn back into Ditto before long.'

'That's true, but catching it is going to be ten times harder than this,' said Victor. 'You said it disappeared just as you threw the Master Ball at it. This pokemon is beyond our current pokemon technology, Chris. It's probably impossible to catch.'

'Well, what's to say it's not beyond Ditto's power, too?' Chris asked. 'Ditto's probably having as hard a time transforming into it as we're having catching it.'

'Yes, but Ditto's a pokemon,' said Victor. 'We're humans. And let's face it, Chris. Humans don't understand pokemon as much as other pokemon do.'

Chris nodded. 'You're right. Tomorrow morning, then?'

'Yeah,' said Victor. 'Ditto will do it this time. I know it will.'
