RKS System (Japanese: ARシステム AR System) is an Ability introduced in Generation VII. It is the signature Ability of Silvally.

Effect

RKS System changes the type of the Pokémon with this Ability depending on the Memory attached. RKS System will prevent the effects of Knock Off, Trick, Switcheroo, Thief or Covet if the target is specifically holding a Memory.

This Ability cannot be transferred with Skill Swap or copied with Trace or Role Play. If any Pokémon other than Silvally has this Ability, it does not work. RKS System cannot be suppressed by Gastro Acid or changed by Worry Seed.

When a Pokémon Transforms into Silvally, it becomes Silvally's Normal form. If it is holding a Memory, it will Transform first into Arceus's current form and will then change type and appearance to the type corresponding to that Memory.

A Pokémon with RKS System cannot be affected by type changing moves, such as Soak. A Pokémon with RKS System is unaffected by Entrainment and Simple Beam. RKS System cannot turn into Mummy.

Outside of battle

RKS System has no effect outside of battle.
