Illusion will change the appearance of the Pokémon to that of the last Pokémon in the player's [[party]]. Illusion will not disguise the Pokémon if the last Pokémon in the player's party is fainted or is of the same species. Illusion will replicate the type of [[Poké Ball]], [[nickname]] (or species name if none), [[Shiny Pokémon|Shininess]] (if any), [[gender]], and [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form]] of the Pokémon it is masquerading as; however, it does not replicate the level of the masqueraded Pokémon. <!--If an {{pkmn|Egg}} is in the last position, the Pokémon that is in the Egg will be shown.--> The effect is only aesthetic: effects like the move {{m|Attract}} still use the Pokémon's actual gender.
