    Evolution

    Abilities

    Illusion

    This Pokémon, upon being sent out, appears to have the species, nickname, and Poké Ball of the last Pokémon in the party that is able to battle. This illusion breaks upon being hit by a damaging move. Other damage, e.g. from weather or Spikes, does not break the illusion, nor does damage done to a Substitute. If the party order becomes temporarily shuffled around as Pokémon are switched out in battle, this ability chooses the last Pokémon according to that shuffled order.

    A once-departed soul, returned to life in Hisui. Derives power from resentment, which rises as energy atop its head and takes on the forms of foes. In this way, Zorua vents lingering malice.

    Legends: Arceus

    Zorua is a timid Pokémon. This disposition seems to be what led to the development of Zorua’s ability to take on the forms of other creatures.

    Sword

    Zorua sometimes transforms into a person and goes into cities to search for food. When Zorua does this, it usually takes on the form of a child.

    Shield

    This Pokémon has a cowardly disposition, so when it’s not around friends, it basically always stays transformed as something else.

    Ultra Sun

    If a normally talkative child suddenly stops talking, it may have been replaced by Zorua.

    Ultra Moon

    To protect themselves from danger, they hide their true identities by transforming into people and Pokémon.

    Alpha Sapphire · Y · White

    It changes so it looks just like its foe, tricks it, and then uses that opportunity to flee.

    Omega Ruby · X · Black 2 · White 2

    It changes into the forms of others to surprise them. Apparently, it often transforms into a silent child.
