A '''regional variant''' (Japanese: '''リージョンフォーム''' ''Region Form'') is a [[Pokémon (species)|species]] of Pokémon found in a specific [[region]] that takes on a different form than it does in most other regions. These Pokémon have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the {{pkmn|world}}. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[Base stats]] and [[List of Pokémon by height|height]] and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]].

In [[Alola]], when {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring has a regional variant, the offspring's form depends on its parents. If either parent is the species' normal form and holds an {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Everstone}}, and if the offspring is in the same family as that parent, then the offspring will hatch as the normal form. In all other cases, the offspring will always hatch in its Alola Form.
