Zen Mode (Japanese: ダルマモード Daruma Mode) is an Ability introduced in Generation V. Darmanitan is the only Pokémon that can have this Ability, which allows it to change form.
Effect
In battle
When Darmanitan's HP drops to below half, it will change into its Zen Mode at the end of the turn. If it loses its Ability, or recovers HP to above half while in its Zen Mode, it will change back. This Ability only works on Darmanitan, even if it is copied by Role Play, Entrainment, or Trace, or swapped with Skill Swap.
Outside of battle
Zen Mode has no effect outside of battle.

When Darmanitan gets weak, its body instantly changes into Zen Mode. It can then stay in Zen Mode until it chooses to come out of it. When it comes out of it, flames form on its eyebrows and its body changes instantly back to its Standard Form.
