Pokémon with regional forms 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]], [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]]. This is analogous to a form of real-world {{wp|evolution}} known as {{wp|peripatric speciation}}, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develops unique traits and may eventually evolve into a new species.

When {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring have a regional form, the offspring will normally take on the form corresponding to the region in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' forms. However, if one of the parents of the same evolutionary family held an [[Everstone]] when the Egg was produced, the offspring will be the same form as that parent. This does not apply to White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} and {{p|Basculegion}}, which will always produce White-Striped Basculin regardless of region or held Everstones. If the parents are the same species but different forms and in different balls, then the offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting either parent's ball regardless of what form the offspring takes.

If a Kantonian Tauros is bred in Paldea and isn't holding an Everstone, then the resulting offspring will always be Combat Breed Paldean Tauros and never the Blaze Breed or Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros.
