Unlike Generations II and III, the user of the move instead copies the target's {{Shiny|coloration}} and [[Form differences|form]]; therefore, if the target is {{Shiny}}, then the user's transformed state will be Shiny as well. If Transform is used on a [[Spiky-eared Pichu]], then the Pokémon who used it will transform into a Spiky-eared Pichu. If the alternate form requires holding an item, such as with [[Form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} or {{p|Arceus}}, and the Pokémon who used Transform is not holding the required item, the Pokémon will first transform to its target's current form, then immediately revert to the form dictated by the transformed Pokémon's held item; therefore, if it transforms into an Arceus but holds a [[Plate]], it will first assume the target Arceus's form, then immediately change to the form corresponding to its Plate. | Unlike Generations II and III, the user of the move instead copies the target's {{Shiny|coloration}} and [[Form differences|form]]; therefore, if the target is {{Shiny}}, then the user's transformed state will be Shiny as well.

Transform will fail if used on a Pokémon behind a {{m|Substitute}} or a Pokémon under the effect of {{a|Illusion}}. 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]] or not holding the same Plate on an {{p|Arceus}} holding a 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. | |||
