While there are 649 officially recognized species of pokemon, with most members of an individual species looking relatively similar to one another, several Pokémon species have remarkable differences in appearance between members. At times, these differences are purely cosmetic, and have no bearing on the difference in the Pokémon's stats from another; however, several Pokémon not only differ in stats, but also type, depending on their form.
So, what would you say is your favourite pokemon that could change its form? Why do you like the forms they turn into? Do you think that these pokemon can alter their DNA in any way from this?
Just to give you a list of pokemon that can change its form from what I know of:
- Pikachu (the cosplay forms)
- Pichu (regular / spiky haired)
- Unown
- Spinda
- Castform
- Deoxys
- Burmy and Wormadam
- Cherrim (during sunlight)
- Shellos and Gastrodon
- Rotom
- Giratina
- Shaymin
- Arceus
- Basculin
- Darmanitan (Zen Mode)
- Deerling and Sawsbuck
- Meloetta
- Genesect
- Vivillon
- Flabébé, Floette, and Florges
- Furfrou
- Aegislash
- Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist

Like for instance, my favourite pokemon that could change its form would be Castform, because I do like how it actually changes its type according to the weather, like if its a sunny day, it becomes a fire type, and so on! So I find it a very unique pokemon out of the pokemon that change forms; though I kind of disapointed that it would not change into a rock or ground type or something of the sort when its a sandstorm. =( Oh well. And plus, its pretty cute as well. <3
