Transform (move): Difference between revisions
Transform does not copy catch rate in Gen I. I just tested this myself; a Ditto transformed into a Magikarp, asleep at very low HP was able to break out of a Poké Ball. With Magikarp's 255 catch rate, this should not have been possible at all.

Each move copied by Transform will have 5 {{PP}}. With this in mind, if a Ditto encounters another Ditto in this game, both Ditto will continually Transform into each other, replenishing the 5 PP constantly and making the battle seemingly endless. | Each move copied by Transform will have 5 {{PP}}.

If Transform is used on an [[Form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} the Pokémon who used Transform will remain in Origin Forme even if it is not holding a {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Griseous Orb}}, instead of reverting to Altered Forme. If Transform is used by a Pokémon not holding a [[Plate]] on an {{p|Arceus}} holding the corresponding Plate, the Pokémon will retain the target {{p|Arceus}}'s typing and not revert to the type corresponding to its held Plate (or lack of one), but its own {{m|Judgment}} will depend on the Plate it actually holds. {{a|Imposter}}, an Ability introduced in this generation, automatically causes the user to transform into the opponent. | ||
