===Forms===
Urshifu has two forms: Single Strike and Rapid Strike. Both forms can [[Gigantamax]] into Gigantamax Single Strike Style Urshifu and Rapid Strike Style Urshifu, respectively.
Urshifu has two forms, Single Strike Style and Rapid Strike Style, each with unique [[Gigantamax]] forms.


Appearance-wise, the fur on top of Single Strike Style Urshifu's head and on its legs flows up, while its headband flares upward and backward. Meanwhile, the fur on top of Rapid Strike Style Urshifu's head and on its legs flows down, while its headband flares forward and outward. The two styles also have different default poses: Single Strike Style Urshifu has its front fist raised, back fist lowered, and both feet planted, while Rapid Strike Style Urshifu has its back fist raised, front fist lowered, and front foot lifted off the ground. Otherwise, the two forms appear nearly identical.

===Evolution data===
In [[Generation VIII]], the form of Urshifu that {{p|Kubfu}} [[Evolution|evolves]] into is dependent on which of the [[Towers of Two Fists]] it evolved at, with it evolving into Single Strike Style at the [[Tower of Darkness]] or Rapid Strike Style at the [[Tower of Waters]]. In [[Generation IX]], Kubfu evolves into Single Strike Style when exposed to the [[Scroll of Darkness]] or Rapid Strike Style when exposed to the [[Scroll of Waters]].
