Talk:Multitype (ability)

If another Pokémon was hacked with Multitype would it be able to change types depending on the Plate? Gligar 19:22, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

That.....is an excellent question. Too bad I don't know... PL12 19:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Skill Swap and Trace are non-hacking ways to get Multitype in-battle. I wonder what does happen.. Just I ain't got no Arceus. Gywall^(Talk) 20:19, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

If somebody could test that, we'd know. PL12 20:26, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Well I know you can't take an Arceus's plate in he middle of battle— it's bonded to it. As for a Pokémon holding a plate getting Multitype Skill Swapped to them... TTEchidna 23:06, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Testing.. Skill Swap AND Trace are not compatible with with Multitype. Sort of like Wonder Guard, but Trace works on Wonder Guard. I'll test a hack in a second. Gywall^(Talk) 15:45, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

It's hard-coded to only work for Arceus. Gywall^(Talk) 15:57, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Does Role Play work on it? TorchicBlaziken ^(talk) 02:13, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

I know Ditto does. TTEchidna 04:34, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Ditto

The page says "When a Ditto Transforms into Arceus, Ditto becomes Arceus's Normal form. If it is holding a plate, Ditto will Transform into Arceus's current form and then will change type and appearance to the type corresponding to its plate." Does this only work for Ditto's transform? Will it work if Mew does it? CherryParanoia 00:57, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Obviously. How about you do it! --CuboneKing 01:00, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
