Deerling has four [[#Form data|forms]]: '''Spring Form''', '''Summer Form''', '''Autumn Form''', and '''Winter Form'''. Deerling changes forms depending on the location the game was loaded in. In [[Paldea]], Spring Form corresponds to {{DL|Paldea|South Province}}, Summer Form to {{DL|Paldea|East Province}}, Autumn Form to {{DL|Paldea|West Province}}, and Winter Form to {{DL|Paldea|North Province}}.

When it debuted, Deerling's form changed based on the {{OBP|season|mechanic}}. From [[Generation VI]] to {{gen|VIII}}, its form could not be changed at all, and only the Spring Form could be found in the wild, with the other forms being obtainable exclusively via [[transfer]] from a Generation V game or from {{g|GO}}.

All {{pkmn2|wild}}, [[Pokémon breeding|bred]], and [[Non-player character|NPC]] Trainer-owned Deerling will match the current season, with the exception of those owned by NPC Trainers in the [[Battle Subway]] and the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], which are all Spring Form.
