 Rotom is a small, orange {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that has a body of plasma. It is mostly spherical, with a bulb below its body and a long pointed protrusion on top, making it shaped like a lightning rod. There is a whitish blue aura of electricity around it that forms lightning bolt-shaped appendages. When moving quickly, these appendages tend to disappear, in favor of a long similar-looking trail of blue electricity. It has teeth, and its unique, blue eyes have a dividing line across them. In its base form, Rotom cannot be touched by anyone without the latter being shocked in the process. According to the [[Rotom Catalog]], Rotom in its base form is possessing a light bulb. Rotom lack any sort circulatory system or pulse.<ref>[[Rotom Pokédex]], ({{g|Sun and Moon}}): "''Waaah! If I had a pulse, it would be pounding like crazzzy right now!''"</ref>
-Rotom have the ability to enter and control appliances. They typically use their abilities to make mischief, often using the household items they possess to pull pranks on unsuspecting people, as [[DP105|seen]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Despite this, some Rotom have taken to inhabiting electronics with the intent of helping others. The [[Rotom Pokédex]], [[Rotom Phone]]s, [[Rotomi]], and {{DL|Battle judge|Drone Rotom}} are some examples. Additionally, in [[Galar]], the Rotom Phone is used to power the [[Rotom Bike]]. Some of these forms allow Rotom to [[Talking Pokémon|speak human languages]], and demonstrate that Rotom are highly intelligent. Rotom tend to reside in abandoned buildings. Research continues on Rotom and its ability to power unique motors. In the anime, a specific Rotom was [[XY081|shown]] to have the ability to [[time travel]].

 Rotom has five alternate forms: Heat Rotom, Wash Rotom, Frost Rotom, Fan Rotom, and Mow Rotom.
 Rotom's forms can be accessed by possessing specific household appliances with a special motor, namely: a convection {{wp|microwave oven}} (Heat Rotom), a {{wp|washing machine}} (Wash Rotom), a {{wp|refrigerator}} (Frost Rotom), an {{wp|mechanical fan|electric fan}} (Fan Rotom), and a {{wp|lawn mower|lawnmower}} (Mow Rotom). When Rotom changes forms, its eyes and electric aura change colors, and its aura appendages take on different shapes: red with oven mitts as Heat Rotom, blue with clothespins as Wash Rotom, purple with lightning bolts as Frost Rotom, yellow with air curls as Fan Rotom, and green with a ripped strip as Mow Rotom.
-In modern [[Sinnoh]], Rotom's forms were said to have been first discovered and documented by [[Charon]]. However, Rotom existed in [[Hisui]] and was also documented in the [[List of Pokémon by Hisui Pokédex number|Hisui Pokédex]]. The electric fan that Rotom inhabits to become Fan Rotom was invented by a boy, and was the first Rotom-related appliance to be developed, leading to the creation of many other appliances like it. The washing machine model that Rotom can inhabit has been discontinued, which causes its price to skyrocket. Heat Rotom will become lethargic if the oven it possesses is malfunctioning.
