The Transform user retains its own [[Pokémon (species)|species name]] or [[nickname]], as well as its [[level]], [[gender]] (even though the target's appearance is copied, including any visible gender differences), [[friendship]], [[status condition]]s, and [[held item]]. Transform does not affect whether the user is affected by {{m|Telekinesis}} (for instance, a {{p|Ditto}} transformed into {{p|Diglett}} is still affected by Telekinesis).
