Deoxys has four [[Forme]]s, each with a different appearance. The main components that are constant for all four Formes are a dominant reddish orange color, with a bluish-green face and three dots similar in color to its face situated in an upwards pointing equilateral triangle on its back. There is typically a purple stripe on the face where a nose would be and it has a purple crystalline organ in its chest. Its eyes are white and circular inside black eye sockets shaped like rounded parallelograms. In the movie [[M07|Destiny Deoxys]], there is a second Deoxys that has a green crystalline organ and stripe on its face. Other color varieties, if any besides the green and purple varieties, are unknown. | Deoxys has four [[Forme]]s, each with a different appearance.

The '''Attack Forme''' has basically the same leg-shape as the Normal Forme, but the stripes are no longer segmented and run down for mostly all of the legs' length, with a large spike on each knee. In place of its arms Deoxys has a pair of whip-like tentacles that come to a point where its hands would be. Deoxys has triangle-shaped "ears" and a single spike on top of its head. Most of the orange "skin" has disappeared to reveal even more of a black, lined inner body, with the lines shown to converge at the crystalline organ. In [[Generation IV]], this Forme is obtained by touching the southeast meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3|Kanto}}. | The '''Attack Forme''' has basically the same leg-shape as the Normal Forme, but the stripes are no longer segmented and run down for mostly all of the legs' length, with a large spike on each knee.

It has flat, broad tentacles that cannot be twisted and hang down to the ground when Deoxys is not defending itself. In addition, Deoxys' head has been fused with its body, resembling a helmet. Its "skin" has thickened and covered all of its body parts for greater defense. In [[Generation IV]], this Forme is obtained by touching the southwest meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3|Kanto}}. | ||
The '''Speed Forme''' has a sleek gray body. Deoxys only has one tentacle on each side of its body; one red, one blue. The back of Deoxys' head is elongated and comes to a point. It has also lost most of its orange "skin" from its body and has narrow appendages, making it streamlined and aerodynamic. Almost all of its body is shown to be of a black matter, and the lines cover the entire length of its body, from the ends of its legs to its neck. In [[Generation IV]], this Forme is obtained by touching the northernmost meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3|Kanto}}. | The '''Speed Forme''' has a sleek gray body.

Deoxys mostly has the ability to change its appearance and stats to suit whatever situation it may be in during battle. Deoxys can also regenerate any part of its body that it may have lost during a battle. It appears that as long as its crystalline organ is intact, it can regenerate its entire body. In the anime, Deoxys took four years to regenerate its whole self after being completely obliterated by [[Rayquaza (M07)|Rayquaza's]] {{m|Hyper Beam}} at close range. | Deoxys mostly has the ability to change its appearance and stats to suit whatever situation it may be in during battle.

In the {{pkmn|movie}} ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', it is shown that Deoxys can create an aurora at will without changing Forme, and can communicate with other Deoxys with auroras of different wavelengths. | ||
In the anime and manga, Deoxys is also seen with the ability to create clones of itself. They appear with lifeless eyes, have dulled-down colors, lack of the trademark crystal on the chest and appear to be unable to use other Formes besides Normal Forme. Unlike Normal Forme for a non-clone Deoxys, clones appear to only use its "tentacles" rather than the hands its tentacles can morph into. When these clones are defeated, they dissolve into shiny dust-like particles. | In the anime and manga, Deoxys is also seen with the ability to create clones of itself.
