Spiky-eared Pichu is always female, cannot evolve, cannot be taken into the Wi-Fi Club or the Union Room, and cannot be transferred to Generation V, but is otherwise a normal Pichu.
3	201	9	Forms only affect appearance. A form is determined at random before a wild encounter and cannot be changed.
4	351	9	Form changes along with type to match the [weather]{mechanic:weather} in battle, due to []{ability:forecast}. Castform is always in its normal form outside of battle, regardless of weather.
5	386	9	Forms have different stats and can learn different moves. Moves are retained through form changes. In Generation III, Deoxys's form depends on the game: Normal Forme in Ruby and Sapphire, Attack Forme in FireRed, Defense Forme in LeafGreen, and Speed Forme in Emerald. In subsequent games, every form exists. Meteorites for switching Deoxys's form can be found in the following locations, depending on the game: * Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum: In the southwest corner of []{location:veilstone-city}. * HeartGold and SoulSilver: At the west end of []{location:kanto-route-3}, near []{location:pewter-city}. * Black and White 1 & 2: In the museum in []{location:nacrene-city}, there is a single meteorite on display which cycles between all forms.
6	412	9	Forms only affect appearance, although they become permanent upon evolution. Wild and newly-hatched Burmy are always in a Plant Cloak. Burmy's cloak changes to match the terrain after a battle it participated in: Plant Cloak by default; Sandy Cloak in sandy or rocky areas, such as beaches, caves, and trails; and Trash Cloak in buildings.
7	413	9	Forms have different stats and movepools. During evolution, Burmy's current cloak becomes Wormadam's form, and can no longer be changed.

11	479	9	Forms have different signature moves and types, and the appliance forms' stats are different from the normal form's. In Generation IV, all forms are Electric/Ghost type. When switching forms, the old signature move (if any) is removed and the new one must be learned, overwriting another move if need be, or the switch will be cancelled; however, it can be forgotten while in the new form. If Rotom only knows its signature move upon reverting to its default form, it learns []{move:thunder-shock} to avoid having no moves. Appliances for switching Rotom's form can be found in the following locations, depending on the game: * Platinum: In the Team Galactic Eterna Building. Requires a []{item:secret-key}. * HeartGold and SoulSilver: In the Silph Co. Office Building.

13	492	9	Forms have different stats and can learn different moves. Moves are retained through form changes. Shaymin transforms into Sky Forme with the use of a []{item:gracidea}.

The Gracidea must be used again to return to Sky Forme. In Generation IV, Shaymin is also limited to Land Forme in the Wi-Fi Club and the Union Room. A Gracidea may be received by showing a Shaymin met in a fateful encounter to a certain NPC, depending on the game: * Platinum: A woman in southwest []{location:floaroma-town}. * HeartGold and SoulSilver: The owner of the []{location:goldenrod-city} flower shop. * Black and White: A woman in the []{location:lacunosa-town} Pokémon Center. * Black 2 and White 2: A woman in the []{location:striaton-city} Pokémon Center.

26	666	9	Forms only differ in appearance. Vivillon's pattern depends on the real-world geographical region set in its original trainer's 3DS, and cannot be changed. Trading a Scatterbug, Spewpa, or egg does not affect the pattern it will have as a Vivillon.
