Talk:Color Change (ability)

If a dual-typed pokémon Skill Swaps or Role Plays Color Change, what happens? Me and my fellow torchics agree on this - Sk8torchic.

I know this is a six month old comment, but I got around to testing it. After Skill Swapping Colour Change onto my Torterra, it was hit by the opponent's Double Slap, and so changed to a Normal-type. I then had my HM Slave use Fly on it (which is super effective against the Grass-type), and it hit for neutral damage and made Torterra a Flying-type. I then got a Water-type to use Surf, which is super effective against Ground-type, but resisted by Grass-types, and it hit for neutral damage, and changed Torterra to a water type. Finally, an Ice Beam was resisted by Torterra, while it is normally super effective against both types.

If you can't be bothered to read that wall of text, my conclusion is that it changes both types. i.e. a dual typed Pokémon will become a mono-typed Pokémon after a Skill Swapped Colour Change has changed its type. Werdnae (talk) 05:23, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
