Lynn "Zhorken" Vaughan 58e0783580 Add form difference prose for Kalos Pokémon.
To do:

- Add form prose for Mega Evolutions
- Update old Pokémon's form prose
- Nail down the style a little:
    * Do I want to capitalize the form moniker?  e.g. "Vivillon's
      Pattern depends..." or "Trading [...] does not affect the Pattern
      it will have..."
    * What about when I'm actually writing a form name?  e.g. "The Fancy
      and Poké Ball Patterns..."  (This is what I do at the moment.)
    * Change all remaining instances of "Forms only affect appearance"
      to "Forms only differ in appearance".  It sounds better and fits
      with the other opening sentences better.

21729Spiky-eared Pichu can only be received by taking the shiny Pichu from an official promotion to []{pokemon:celebi}'s shrine in []{location:ilex-forest}. 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.
32019Forms only affect appearance. A form is determined at random before a wild encounter and cannot be changed.
43519Form 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.
53869Forms 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.
64129Forms 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.
74139Forms have different stats and movepools. During evolution, Burmy's current cloak becomes Wormadam's form, and can no longer be changed.
84219Sunshine form is active during [strong sunlight]{mechanic:strong-sunlight}. Otherwise, Cherrim defaults to its Overcast form.

104239Forms only affect appearance. A form is determined before a wild encounter based on whether the battle is in western or eastern Sinnoh and cannot be changed.
114799Forms 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. Enter the building when walking with Rotom and enter the broken elevator. * Black and White 1 & 2: In Shopping Mall Nine. Found in boxes in a storage room on the first floor on the far right.
124879Forms have different stats and can learn different moves from tutors. Moves are retained through form changes. Giratina transforms into Origin Forme in the []{location:distortion-world} or while holding a []{item:griseous-orb}. Otherwise, it assumes its Altered Forme. In Generation IV, the Griseous Orb returns to the bag upon entering the Wi-Fi Club or the Union Room.
134929Forms 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}. It is limited to Land Forme at night, when [frozen]{mechanic:frozen}, and in the storage system boxes; under these conditions, Sky Shaymin reverts to Land Forme, and the Gracidea has no effect. 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.

Upon stepping outdoors, the change of season is displayed and Deerling will change again.

Upon stepping outdoors, the change of season is displayed and Deerling will change again.
196419Forms have different stats and abilities. Tornadus switches forms when the []{item:reveal-glass} is used on it. The Reveal Glass may be obtained by taking a Therian []{pokemon:landorus} to []{location:abundant-shrine}. (Landorus can be obtained in Therian Forme from the Dream Radar.)

266669Forms 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. Changing the 3DS's region setting will not affect the game's Vivillon pattern until the player starts a new game. The Fancy and Poké Ball Patterns do not correspond to any region and are only available through distributions.
