In Generation VII, Greninja with the [[Ability]] {{a|Battle Bond}} can {{DL|Bond Phenomenon|transform}} into a special form known as '''Ash-Greninja''' after defeating an opponent during [[battle]]. Greninja with Battle Bond is treated as a distinct [[#Form data|form]] in the games' code. In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Ash-Greninja transformation is no longer present, and Battle Bond's effect was changed to instead increase Greninja's [[stats]] upon defeating an opponent.

Greninja has an alternate form: Ash-Greninja.


Through a process called the [[Bond Phenomenon]], certain Greninja, such as [[Ash's Greninja]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}, can change into an alternate form called Ash-Greninja. In this form, Greninja's skin turns a lighter shade of blue, while its face gains red stripes and its cheeks and side fins turn black, changing shape to resemble {{Ash}}'s hair. Ash-Greninja is always male.

Its legs are stronger in this form, and it gains the ability to form large Water Shurikens on its back.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20171023143056mp_/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/ash-greninja/</ref> Ash-Greninja is faster and stronger than a regular Greninja. Ash-Greninja can move so fast it can be difficult to see where it will move next. It is fast enough to take out enemies out in a flash.
As Ash-Greninja, its speed and power far outpace those of a normal Greninja. Its legs are strengthened, increasing its speed to a point where it becomes highly difficult to see and enabling it to dispatch enemies in a flash. It gains the ability to form even larger {{m|Water Shuriken}}s on its back and launch them in rapid succession. Ash-Greninja is described as a form used in battle in order to break through Greninja's limits.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20171023143056mp_/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/ash-greninja/</ref>
