Illusion replicates the appearance (including species, [[form]], and [[Shiny Pokémon|Shininess]]), [[nickname]] (or species name if none), [[Poké Ball]], and [[gender]] of the Pokémon it is masquerading as; however, it does not replicate the level of the masqueraded Pokémon. The effect is only aesthetic—effects such as {{m|Attract}} still use the Pokémon's actual gender. On the user interface, an opponent's Pokémon disguised by Illusion will appear to be the type of the Pokémon it is disguised as (even if it is affected by a move such as {{m|Soak}}). | Illusion replicates the appearance (including species, [[form]], and [[Shiny Pokémon|Shininess]]), [[nickname]] (or species name if none), [[Poké Ball]], and [[gender]] of the Pokémon it is masquerading as; however, it does not replicate the level of the masqueraded Pokémon.

{{m|Role Play}} fails if the target has the Ability Illusion. {{m|Skill Swap}} fails if either Pokémon has Illusion.
