If the move used is {{m|Hidden Power}}, the user's type changes to the actual type of Hidden Power the user possesses.

If the execution is interrupted entirely (such as by the effect of [[infatuation]] or [[confusion]]), Protean will not activate. Protean will activate if the move misses or is blocked by moves such as {{m|Protect}}. | |||
