A '''regional form''' (Japanese: '''リージョンフォーム''' ''region form''), also known as a '''regional variant''', is an alternate [[form]] of a Pokémon [[Pokémon (species)|species]] that is found in a specific [[region]]. These forms differ from those found in the region where the Pokémon was introduced, usually even to the point of having a different [[type]].
A '''regional form''' (Japanese: '''リージョンフォーム''' ''Region Form''), also known as a '''regional variant''', is an alternate [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form]] of a Pokémon [[Pokémon (species)|species]] that is found in a specific [[region]]. These forms differ from those found in the region where the Pokémon was introduced — even, in most cases so far, to the point of having a different [[type]].


As of [[Generation IX]], Pokémon can have the following regional forms:
The following regional forms are currently known:
* '''Alolan Form''' (Japanese: '''アローラのすがた''' ''Alola Form'') in [[Alola]], originally introduced as '''Alola Form''';
* [[Alolan form]] in [[Alola]].
* '''Galarian Form''' (Japanese: '''ガラルのすがた''' ''Galar Form'') in [[Galar]];
* [[Galarian form]] in [[Galar]].
* '''Hisuian Form''' (Japanese: '''ヒスイのすがた''' ''Hisui Form'') in [[Hisui]];
* [[Hisuian form]] in [[Hisui]].
* '''Paldean Form''' (Japanese: '''パルデアのすがた''' ''Paldea Form'') in [[Paldea]].
* [[Paldean form]] in [[Paldea]].


As of Generation IX, 55 Pokémon are known to have regional forms, and 58 regional forms are known in total. Apart from {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Tauros}}, which have two and three respectively, each Pokémon with a regional form has only one.
54 Pokémon currently have regional forms, and 57 regional forms currently exist in total (55 and 58, respectively, if White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} is counted as a regional form). Apart from {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Tauros}}, which have two and three respectively, each Pokémon with a regional form has only one.
 
Some regional forms have a different [[Methods of Evolution|Evolution method]] than their counterparts from other regions.

In [[Generation VII]], they were introduced as '''regional variants''', which is also mentioned in some [[Pokémon GO]] [[Community Day]] events from 2023. From [[Generation VIII]] onwards, they have been consistently known as '''regional forms''' in the core series games.

The place name adjective (such as "'''Alolan'''") is used before the Pokémon species. In running text, both the original form and the new regional forms are sometimes treated this way, such as "'''Kantonian {{p|Meowth}}'''" and "'''Alolan {{p|Meowth}}'''". Conversely, sometimes the Pokémon species are simply mentioned in running text without using the regional adjective. For instance, if the player encounters a wild Galarian {{p|Meowth}}, the battle dialogue would simply indicate "You encountered a wild {{p|Meowth}}!"

In [[Generation VII]] games, the [[Pokédex]] displays "'''Alola Form'''" as the title of this form. From [[Generation VIII]] onwards (including in [[Pokémon HOME]]), the adjectives for the place names are consistently used instead. For instance, "'''Alolan Form'''", "'''Galarian Form'''", "'''Hisuian Form'''", and "'''Paldean Form'''". The original form (such as the Kantonian Meowth) is not named in the Pokédex.

In running text (as seen on [[Pokémon.com]]), the word "form" has been consistently written in lowercase. In the [[Generation VII]] era, this used to be "Alola form". From [[Generation VIII]] onwards, this includes "Kantonian form", "Alolan form", "Galarian form", etc.

==Description==
==List of regional forms==
In the [[Alola]], [[Galar]], [[Hisui]], and [[Paldea]] regions, certain Pokémon species have regional forms. A Pokémon in these forms are described as such; for example, {{p|Sandshrew}} in its Alolan Form is referred to as Alolan Sandshrew and {{p|Ponyta}} in its Galarian Form is referred to as Galarian Ponyta. Although the original forms of these Pokémon are not normally identified by a separate name, people from regions that do have regional forms will usually refer to the original form of a given Pokémon in the same format.<ref group="note">[[Hau]] refers to the Meowth the player's {{al|mom}} owns as a "Kantonian Meowth" in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]].</ref><ref group="note">In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], a {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}} in [[Spikemuth]] will offer to trade the player a {{p|Mr. Mime}}, which he refers to as a "Kantonian Mr. Mime".</ref> According to the [[Pokédex]], Alolan {{p|Vulpix}} goes by an older name: ''Keokeo''.<!--Alolan Raichu's nickname "hodad" isn't a name, it's in quotation marks only in English.-->

Pokémon with regional forms have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the {{pkmn|world}}. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[base stats]], [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]]. This is analogous to a form of real-world {{wp|evolution}} known as {{wp|peripatric speciation}}, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develops unique traits and may eventually evolve into a new species.

When {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring have a regional form, the offspring will normally take on the form corresponding to the region in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' forms. However, if one of the parents of the same evolutionary family held an [[Everstone]] when the Egg was produced, the offspring will be the same form as that parent. This does not apply to White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} and {{p|Basculegion}}, which will always produce White-Striped Basculin regardless of region or held Everstones. If the parents are the same species but different forms and in different balls, then the offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting either parent's ball regardless of what form the offspring takes.

If a Kantonian Tauros is bred in Paldea and isn't holding an Everstone, then the resulting offspring will always be Combat Breed Paldean Tauros and never the Blaze Breed or Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros.

If a Pokémon without a regional form evolves into a Pokémon with a regional form, it will evolve into the form native to the region it is currently in.
 
From [[Generation VIII]] onward, regional forms may have an evolution that their regular form does not have, or evolve into a different species than the regular form, becoming something similar to a [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branched evolution]].
 
==Alolan Form{{anchor|Alola}}==
===Generation VII===
A total of eighteen Alolan Forms were introduced in [[Generation VII]], all for Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]]. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], if a Pokémon evolves from a species that does not have an Alolan Form to one that does, such as {{p|Cubone}}, it will always evolve into its Alolan Form and cannot evolve into its original form. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], the Pokémon will evolve into its Alolan Form while in Alola itself, but can also evolve into its original form while in [[Ultra Space]].
 
While [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] take place in [[Kanto]], players can import Alolan Forms from [[Pokémon GO]] or receive them from [[in-game trade]]s.
 
===Generation VIII===
In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], Alolan Forms of Pokémon present in the [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number|Galar Pokédex]] are unavailable by normal means and can be obtained by transferring them from other games. Alolan forms of Pokémon included in [[The Isle of Armor]] expansion are available as rewards for finding hidden Alolan Diglett on the Isle of Armor, and Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}} and {{p|Marowak}} can be obtained from in-game trades with Regina in exchange for their respective Kantonian forms. In [[The Crown Tundra]], certain Alolan Forms can be obtained from [[Dynamax Adventure|Dynamax Adventures]]. An Alolan Meowth also makes a cameo appearance in the [[non-player character|NPC]] [[Pokémon Camp]] on {{rt|7|Galar}}.
 
Alolan Pokémon are not present in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}.
 
In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], an Alolan Vulpix can be obtained after completing [[Task#Requests|Request]] 83.
 
===Generation IX===
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], Alolan Forms of Pokémon present in the [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldea Pokédex]] can be obtained by transferring them from other games. In addition, Alolan Exeggutor have been seen in the wild in the [[Terarium]] as part of [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]]'s second expansion, [[The Indigo Disk]], marking the first time Alolan Pokémon have been obtainable in the wild since Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

==Galarian Form{{anchor|Galar}}==
While only Pokémon introduced in [[Kanto]] have [[Alola]]n Forms, Pokémon introduced both in and after [[Generation I]] can have Galarian Forms.
 
===Generation VIII===
A total of nineteen Galarian Forms were introduced in [[Generation VIII]]. Thirteen of these forms were introduced in the launch versions of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, with the remaining six introduced through updates and downloadable content additions to the games. Pokémon Sword and Shield introduces regional Pokémon that can evolve into entirely new Pokémon, such as {{p|Perrserker}} and {{p|Sirfetch'd}}. The [[Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass]] would later introduce more Galarian Form Pokémon, including Galarian Forms of the [[Legendary bird]]s.
 
Galarian Pokémon are not present in {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl}}, or {{pkmn|Legends: Arceus}}.
 
===Generation IX===
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], Galarian Forms of Pokémon present in the Paldea Pokédex can be obtained by transferring them from other games. In addition, the player can recieve a Galarian {{p|Meowth}} from [[Salvatore]] as a {{pkmn2|gift}} for completing his side story at [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}.

==Hisuian Form{{anchor|Hisui}}==
Like in the Galar region, Pokémon introduced both in and after [[Generation I]] have Hisuian Forms. Notably, these forms were introduced after their region's debut, as [[Hisui]] is a version of the [[Sinnoh]] region from the distant past.
 
===Generation VIII===
A total of seventeen Hisuian Forms were introduced in [[Generation VIII]].
 
===Generation IX===
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], all Hisuian Form Pokémon are transferrable to the game.

==Paldean Form{{anchor|Paldea}}==
===Generation IX===
A total of four Paldean Forms were introduced in [[Generation IX]]. In addition, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet introduce the {{p|Wiglett}} and {{p|Toedscool}} lines, whose designs heavily resemble the {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Tentacool}} lines, respectively. Despite their similar appearances, these Pokémon are not regional forms, as their [[Pokédex]] entries confirm them to be separate species. Their resemblance to pre-existing Pokémon may be inspired by the real-world phenomenon of {{wp|convergent evolution}}.

===Pokémon GO===
Regional forms are present in [[Pokémon GO]]. They often have special requirements to be obtained as opposed to simply encountering them in the {{pkmn2|wild}}.
 
[[Alola]]n Pokémon first appeared in Pokémon GO on May 30, 2018, with the appearance of Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}}. Initially, Alolan Pokémon were exclusive to [[List of Eggs (GO)|7 km Eggs]] and {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s, but have occasionally reappeared in the wild since their debuts.

[[Galar]]ian Pokémon first appeared on November 16, 2019, with the appearance of Galarian {{p|Weezing}}.
==In the core series games==
In the [[Alola]], [[Galar]], [[Hisui]], and [[Paldea]] regions, certain Pokémon species have regional forms.


{| class="expandable roundy" align=center style="border:3px solid #{{night color}}; background:#{{blue color dark}}; width:100%;" cellpadding=5px
Pokémon with regional forms have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the {{pkmn|world}}. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[base stats]], [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]]. This is analogous to a form of real-world {{wp|evolution}} known as {{wp|peripatric speciation}}, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develops unique traits and may eventually evolve into a new species.

[[Hisui]]an Pokémon first appeared on January 30, 2022, with the appearance of Hisuian {{p|Voltorb}}.
When {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring have a regional form, the offspring will normally take on the form corresponding to the region in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' forms. However, if one of the parents of the same evolutionary line held an [[Everstone]] when the Egg was produced, the offspring will be the same form as that parent. This does not apply to White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} and {{p|Basculegion}}, which always produce White-Striped Basculin—regardless of region or held Everstones—when they are the mother or non-{{p|Ditto}} parent. If the parents are the same species but different forms and in different balls, then the offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting either parent's ball regardless of what form the offspring takes.


{| class="expandable roundy" align=center style="border:3px solid #{{night color}}; background:#{{blue color dark}}; width:100%;" cellpadding=5px
If a Kantonian Tauros is bred in Paldea and is not holding an Everstone, then the resulting offspring will always be Combat Breed Paldean Tauros and never the Blaze Breed or Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros.

[[Alola]]n Pokémon first appeared in Pokémon GO on May 30, 2018, with the appearance of Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}}. Initially, Alolan Pokémon were exclusive to [[List of Eggs (GO)|7 km Eggs]] and {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s, but have occasionally reappeared in the wild since their debuts. In addition, the rest of the Alolan Forms, first {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Diglett}}, and {{p|Geodude}}, then later on {{p|Sandshrew}}, {{p|Vulpix}}, {{p|Meowth}}, and {{p|Grimer}}, have also infrequently appeared in the wild as well as in 7 km Eggs. Alolan {{p|Raichu}} appears exclusively in level 3 Raid Battles. Alolan {{p|Marowak}} initially was also exclusive to level 3 Raid Battles, but has since become a [[Research Breakthrough]] reward for the month of April, 2022.


On November 16, 2019, in celebration of the release of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, [[Galar]]ian {{p|Weezing}} appeared in Pokémon GO as a level 4 Raid Boss as soon as {{p|Chimchar}}'s [[Community Day]] ended, with Weezing being present as a Raid Boss in every {{OBP|Gym|GO}}, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. in every time zone. Since then, Galarian Weezing has been a potential level 3 Raid Boss.
If a Pokémon without a regional form evolves into a Pokémon with a regional form, it will evolve into the form native to the region it is currently in.


On June 3, 2020, as part of Pokémon GO's [https://pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/post/throwbackchallengechampion-2020/?hl=en Throwback Challenge 2020], Galarian Stunfisk had the potential to be found in the wild, as a level 1 Raid Boss, or through the Throwback Challenge Champion 2020 Special Research, while the Galarian Forms of Zigzagoon, Darumaka, and Meowth could be found in 7 km Eggs. The event ran from June 3, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. to June 8, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. local time. After the event, the Galarian Forms of Meowth, Zigzagoon, Darumaka, and Stunfisk could still be found in 7 km Eggs alongside the Alolan Forms of Sandshrew, Vulpix, DIglett, Meowth, Geodude, and Grimer.
Regional forms introduced from [[Generation VIII]] onward may have an Evolution that their regular form does not have, or evolve into a different species than the regular form, becoming something similar to a [[List of Pokémon with branched Evolutions|branched Evolution]].


On June 17, 2020, in celebration of the release of [[the Isle of Armor]] [[Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass|expansion]] for {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Galarian Farfetch'd made its debut in Pokémon GO and could also be found in the wild, but unlike Zigzagoon and Meowth, it could not be evolved into {{p|Sirfetch'd}} (though this has since been changed with the addition of Sirfetch'd). The event lasted from June 17, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. to June 18, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. PDT. After the event, Galarian Farfetch'd could still be found in 7 km Eggs.

It could be caught by completing level 1 Raid Bosses, and by being fed {{candy|Slowpoke}}50, and the Trainer having caught 30 {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with it as their Buddy, it would evolve into Galarian {{p|Slowbro}}. Galarian {{p|Slowking}} was released over three months later, on October 15, 2021, with the start of Pokémon GO's annual Halloween event. It evolves from Galarian Slowpoke after the Trainer has caught 30 {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon with it as their Buddy, in addition to feeding it {{candy|Slowpoke}}50.

Alolan Pokémon were present in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' since the [[SM001|first episode]]. {{Ash}} first learned about them in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', where {{ashcl|his class}} discussed the difference between Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}} and Exeggutor from other regions.
{{main|Alolan form|section=Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon}}
 
In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', all Alolan forms appeared. They were present since the [[SM001|first episode]].
An Alolan {{p|Persian}} [[nickname]]d Pershie first appeared in ''[[SM007|‪That's Why the Litten is a Scamp!]]'', where it was shown antagonizing a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{AP|Litten}}. It reappeared in ''[[SM083|Dummy, You Shrunk the Kids!]]'' and ''[[SM099|We Know Where You're Going, Eevee!]]''.
 
Multiple Alolan {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Raticate}} appeared in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where they were harassing a farmer on [[Melemele Island]], stealing his crops. [[Hala]] tasked Ash with finding a solution to this problem that doesn't involve battling the pests. Instead, Ash chose to battle the [[Verdant Cavern]] [[Totem Pokémon]], {{p|Gumshoos}}, and enlisted its help to scare the Rattata and Raticate away.
 
{{an|Lillie}} received a [[Pokémon Egg]] in ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]''. It hatched into an Alolan {{p|Vulpix}} she nicknamed [[Snowy]] in ''[[SM013|Racing to a Big Event!]]''. After capturing it in [[SM014|the following episode]], Lillie took her first steps towards overcoming her fear of touching Pokémon.
 
''[[SM013|Racing to a Big Event!]]'' also featured the debut of Alolan {{p|Raichu}} and {{p|Muk}}. Raichu appeared under the ownership of [[Nina]], while multiple Muk appeared to eat the pancakes dropped during the race.
 
In ''[[SM023|Getting the Band Back Together!]]'', an Alolan {{p|Dugtrio}} appeared under the ownership of {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s old friend, [[DJ Leo]]. Their musical performance drew the adoration of a wild Alolan {{p|Diglett}}, who later joined as another member of their DJ group.
 
In ''[[SM025|A Team-on-Team Tussle!]]'', {{TRT}} fought a trio of {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s over a [[Darkinium Z]] protected by a Totem Alolan Raticate and Ally Alolan Rattata and Raticate. While [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are ultimately unsuccessful in defeating the Totem, {{MTR}} is able to steal the [[Z-Crystal]] while it is distracted.
 
An Alolan {{p|Geodude}} debuted in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', where {{Ash}} attempted to catch it. After a short battle, the Alolan Geodude punched Ash's Poké Ball into his face with a {{m|Thunder Punch}} and then ran away.
 
In ''[[SM034|A Crowning Moment of Truth!]]'', while Ash and his classmates were visiting [[Wela Volcano Park]] for the Wela Fire Festival, the festivities were interrupted by [[Kiawe's Marowak|a wild Alolan Marowak]], who stole the Wela Crown used in a ceremony. While {{an|Kiawe}} and his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}} were defeated by it during their first challenge, they were able to defeat it in a rematch thanks to Turtonator's newly learned {{m|Shell Smash}}. After being defeated, Marowak gave back the crown and asked to join Kiawe's [[party]].
 
Alolan {{p|Sandshrew}} and {{p|Ninetales}} debuted in ''[[SM060|Getting a Jump on the Competition!]]''. The Sandshrew appeared as wild Pokémon native to [[Mount Lanakila]], while Ninetales appeared under the ownership of [[Cerah]].
 
A wild Alolan {{p|Meowth}} appeared in ''[[SM062|Acting True to Form!]]'', where it came to Team Rocket looking for a worthy master. It manipulated Jessie and James into turning against {{MTR}} by showing off its abilities, and also earned their favor when they realized it could use their Darkinium Z. When {{an|Giovanni}} and [[Matori]] contacted the trio for a report on their activities, the Alolan Meowth became intrigued by them. To this end, it slipped away, stole Meowth's savings, and flew to [[Kanto]] to reach {{an|Team Rocket HQ}}, where Matori made it her assistant due to its craftiness.
 
An Alolan {{p|Grimer}} appeared in a flashback in ''[[SM065|Turning Heads and Training Hard!]]'', under the ownership of [[Tupp]].
 
[[File:Ash and Goh Farfetch'd.png|thumb|250px|A Kantonian and Galarian {{p|Farfetch'd}} in the anime]]
More Alolan Sandshrew appeared in ''[[SM080|Not Caving Under Pressure!]]'' in the caverns underneath Mount Lanakila. Lillie befriended a particularly [[Giant Pokémon|large]] Sandshrew, and helped it reclaim its territory from an aggressive {{p|Tyranitar}}. After the battle, [[Sophocles's Charjabug]] found an [[Ice Stone]], which the Sandshrew promptly used to [[evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Sandslash}}. Sandslash rewarded Lillie with an [[Icium Z]] as a token of gratitude.
 
An Alolan {{p|Golem}} and Muk appeared in ''[[SM081|A Young Royal Flame Ignites!]]'', under the ownership of members of the [[Revengers]], a heel wrestler group.
 
Alolan Geodude and {{p|Graveler}} appeared in ''[[SM095|Sparking Confusion!]]'' at [[Wela Volcano Park]], having been driven out by [[rock hunters]] attempting to mine the caves in the area for the food the Pokémon eat. The hunters were attacked by their leader, an Alolan Golem, who began attacking indiscriminately. Thanks to the [[Ultra Guardians]]' {{p|Metang}}, however, Ash, Kiawe, and Sophocles were able to calm the group of Alolan Pokémon and stop the magnetic interference coming from the Park. The leader Golem later joined a trio of {{tc|Hiker}}s who volunteered to help with future patrols of Wela Volcano Park.

While within [[Glimwood Tangle]], [[Chloe]] followed a Galarian Ponyta where it led her to an injured Galarian Rapidash. After finding the dew of a flower that could heal it, the Rapidash let Chloe ride it to [[Ballonlea]].
[[File:Hisuian Pokemon anime.png|250px|thumb|Hisuian Growlithe and Hisuian Braviary in the anime]]
An Alolan {{p|Ninetales}} apperared in ''[[JN071|Leaping Toward the Dream!]]''. It had wound up on [[Mt. Coronet]] after being kidnapped and accidentally lost by Pokémon hunters.

Regional forms are featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as Alolan, Galarian, Hisuian, and Paldean Pokémon. Evolutions exclusive to regional forms are referred to with the same descriptors used for their pre-evolutions (for example, '''Galarian''' is used as a descriptor for both Galarian Form Pokémon and their evolutions). Notably, Alolan form cards brought the return of {{TCG|Attack}}s that cost zero {{TCG|Energy}} to use, a mechanic that was previously only seen during the TCG's [[Generation IV]] sets and has since remained exclusive to cards featuring either Alolan forms or Hisuian forms.

===Alolan Pokémon===
Regional variants are featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as Alolan, Galarian, Hisuian, and Paldean Pokémon. Notably, Evolutions exclusive to regional variants have the same descriptors used for their pre-evolved forms appended to the name of the Evolution. For example, "Galarian" is used as a descriptor for both Galarian form Pokémon and their Evolutions, as seen with {{TCG ID|Battle Styles|Galarian Mr. Mime|34}} and {{TCG ID|Battle Styles|Galarian Mr. Rime|35}} from {{TCG|Battle Styles}}. This is because some cards refer to Pokémon that are of a specific regional variant. For example, {{TCG ID|Lost Thunder|Aether Foundation Employee|168}} refers to "Pokémon that have 'Alolan' in their names".

===Galarian Pokémon===
While Galarian and Paldean Pokémon have no other exclusive mechanics, Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon have the distinction of often featuring {{TCG|attack}}s that cost zero {{TCG|Energy}} to use. Before the Sun & Moon Series, this mechanic had been absent from the TCG since the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series. Free attacks were exclusive to Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon until the Scarlet & Violet Series, when they were also once again seen on [[baby Pokémon]] cards.

Prior to [[Generation VII]], there were already certain Pokémon that had variations depending on their native geographical area, but, unlike regional forms, these Pokémon do not appear to have any functional difference from their original forms; rather, their differences are purely aesthetic, with their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]] remaining the same.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game introduced Delta Species Pokémon in [[Generation III]]. Like regional forms, these Pokémon would undergo a type change, but their appearance would stay generally the same. The backstory of {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} states that these changes were not due to natural adaptation but rather a mutation brought on by exposure to electromagnetic waves.

This seems to be an exclusive phenomenon on the island of [[Holon]], the aforementioned waves a product of experiments by scientists in the area searching for the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. Delta Species Pokémon appeared in the TCG from {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} to {{TCG|EX Dragon Frontiers}}.

===Ecologically similar Pokémon===
{{main|Ecologically similar Pokémon}}
Certain Pokémon that are considered ecologically similar to previously {{pkmn|discovery|discovered}} species are often mistaken for regional forms of the same species.
According to the [[Pokédex]], researchers initially believed {{p|Wiglett}} and {{p|Wugtrio}} to be regional forms of {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}}, respectively, before concluding they were separate species entirely.
===Bloodmoon Ursaluna===
{{main|Ursaluna (Pokémon)}}
Bloodmoon Ursaluna, a specific Ursaluna with a unique form is found in the [[Timeless Woods]] at the land of [[Kitakami]], has a similar concept to the regional forms, being a Pokémon that moved away from their original region and adapted to the new different environment, but instead of changing types, it kept its original ones and gained special powers such as {{m|Blood Moon}} and {{a|Mind's Eye}}.

* The only [[type]] not possessed by any regional form is {{t|Bug}}.
* According to an interview with [[Shigeru Ohmori]], regional forms were inspired by {{wp|Allopatric speciation|cases of speciation induced by region isolation}}, specifically mentioning the {{wp|Galápagos Islands}} as a direct inspiration. In addition, Ohmori mentioned that Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}} was the first regional form of a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to be designed, and inspired the creation of other Alolan Forms.<ref>Interview with [[Game Freak]] in ''[[Pokémon Sun & Pokémon Moon: The Official Alola Region Pokédex & Postgame Adventure Guide]]'', p. v<!--page v--></ref>
** Additionally, there are no {{type|Flying}} regional forms that were not already that type in their original form.
* In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, when a Pokémon undergoes [[evolution]] into a regional form, the background in the evolution animation is green, as opposed to the blue background used for all other Pokémon. Conversely, when a [[Pokémon Egg]] hatches into a regional form, the background is blue instead of yellow. Additionally, a different arrangement of the evolution music is played in both of these situations.
* In contrast to other regional forms, Galarian {{p|Zigzagoon}} is referred to as the original form of its respective species.<ref>[[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield]] [[Pokédex]] entry for regular Zigzagoon: "''Zigzagoon that adapted to regions outside Galar acquired this appearance.[...]''"</ref>

*** With a branched evolution.
*** To lose a [[type]] from its original form (namely Water) rather than gaining or replacing one.

Furthermore, [[Professor Laventon]] refers to it as a regional form in its [[Pokédex]] entry in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, and in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], Basculin cards featuring the White-Striped form use the name "Hisuian Basculin". However, it is not treated as a regional form for {{pkmn|breeding}} purposes.
** White-Striped Basculin is the only regional form of a Pokémon:
*** Whose type is exactly the same as its original form.
*** Whose name does not follow the standard convention of being named after the region the form corresponds to.

Kantonian and Alolan Vulpix in Pokémon the Series

A regional form (Japanese: リージョンフォーム region form), also known as a regional variant, is an alternate form of a Pokémon species that is found in a specific region. These forms differ from those found in the region where the Pokémon was introduced, usually even to the point of having a different type.

The following regional forms are currently known:

54 Pokémon currently have regional forms, and 57 regional forms currently exist in total (55 and 58, respectively, if White-Striped Basculin is counted as a regional form). Apart from Meowth and Tauros, which have two and three respectively, each Pokémon with a regional form has only one.

Some regional forms have a different Evolution method than their counterparts from other regions.

Terminology

Main article: Terminology of regional forms

In Generation VII, they were introduced as regional variants, which is also mentioned in some Pokémon GO Community Day events from 2023. From Generation VIII onwards, they have been consistently known as regional forms in the core series games.

The place name adjective (such as "Alolan") is used before the Pokémon species. In running text, both the original form and the new regional forms are sometimes treated this way, such as "Kantonian Meowth" and "Alolan Meowth". Conversely, sometimes the Pokémon species are simply mentioned in running text without using the regional adjective. For instance, if the player encounters a wild Galarian Meowth, the battle dialogue would simply indicate "You encountered a wild Meowth!"

In Generation VII games, the Pokédex displays "Alola Form" as the title of this form. From Generation VIII onwards (including in Pokémon HOME), the adjectives for the place names are consistently used instead. For instance, "Alolan Form", "Galarian Form", "Hisuian Form", and "Paldean Form". The original form (such as Kantonian Meowth) is not named in the Pokédex.

In running text (as seen on Pokémon.com), the word "form" has been consistently written in lowercase. In the Generation VII era, this used to be "Alola form". From Generation VIII onwards, this includes "Kantonian form", "Alolan form", "Galarian form", etc.

In the core series games

In the Alola, Galar, Hisui, and Paldea regions, certain Pokémon species have regional forms.

Pokémon with regional forms have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the world. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their type, moves, Abilities, base stats, height, and weight. This is analogous to a form of real-world evolution known as peripatric speciation, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develops unique traits and may eventually evolve into a new species.

When breeding Pokémon whose offspring have a regional form, the offspring will normally take on the form corresponding to the region in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' forms. However, if one of the parents of the same evolutionary line held an Everstone when the Egg was produced, the offspring will be the same form as that parent. This does not apply to White-Striped Basculin and Basculegion, which always produce White-Striped Basculin—regardless of region or held Everstones—when they are the mother or non-Ditto parent. If the parents are the same species but different forms and in different balls, then the offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting either parent's ball regardless of what form the offspring takes.

If a Kantonian Tauros is bred in Paldea and is not holding an Everstone, then the resulting offspring will always be Combat Breed Paldean Tauros and never the Blaze Breed or Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros.

If a Pokémon without a regional form evolves into a Pokémon with a regional form, it will evolve into the form native to the region it is currently in.

Regional forms introduced from Generation VIII onward may have an Evolution that their regular form does not have, or evolve into a different species than the regular form, becoming something similar to a branched Evolution.

Main articles: Alolan form → In the TCG, Galarian form → In the TCG, Hisuian form → In the TCG, and Paldean form → In the TCG

Regional variants are featured in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as Alolan, Galarian, Hisuian, and Paldean Pokémon. Notably, Evolutions exclusive to regional variants have the same descriptors used for their pre-evolved forms appended to the name of the Evolution. For example, "Galarian" is used as a descriptor for both Galarian form Pokémon and their Evolutions, as seen with Galarian Mr. Mime and Galarian Mr. Rime from Battle Styles. This is because some cards refer to Pokémon that are of a specific regional variant. For example, Aether Foundation Employee refers to "Pokémon that have 'Alolan' in their names".

While Galarian and Paldean Pokémon have no other exclusive mechanics, Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon have the distinction of often featuring attacks that cost zero Energy to use. Before the Sun & Moon Series, this mechanic had been absent from the TCG since the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series. Free attacks were exclusive to Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon until the Scarlet & Violet Series, when they were also once again seen on baby Pokémon cards.

Variant Pokémon

Main article: Variant Pokémon
A Valencia Island Butterfree

Prior to Generation VII, there were already certain Pokémon that had variations depending on their native geographical area, but, unlike regional forms, these Pokémon do not appear to have any functional difference from their original forms; rather, their differences are purely aesthetic, with their type, moves, Abilities, height, and weight remaining the same.

δ Delta Species

Main article: δ Delta Species (TCG)
A Metal type Pikachu

The Pokémon Trading Card Game introduced Delta Species Pokémon in Generation III. Like regional forms, these Pokémon would undergo a type change, but their appearance would stay generally the same. The backstory of EX Delta Species states that these changes were not due to natural adaptation but rather a mutation brought on by exposure to electromagnetic waves.

This seems to be an exclusive phenomenon on the island of Holon, the aforementioned waves a product of experiments by scientists in the area searching for the Mythical Pokémon Mew. Delta Species Pokémon appeared in the TCG from EX Delta Species to EX Dragon Frontiers.

Ecologically similar Pokémon

Main article: Ecologically similar Pokémon

Certain Pokémon that are considered ecologically similar to previously discovered species are often mistaken for regional forms of the same species.

According to the Pokédex, researchers initially believed Wiglett and Wugtrio to be regional forms of Diglett and Dugtrio, respectively, before concluding they were separate species entirely.

Bloodmoon Ursaluna

Main article: Ursaluna (Pokémon)

Bloodmoon Ursaluna, a specific Ursaluna with a unique form is found in the Timeless Woods at the land of Kitakami, has a similar concept to the regional forms, being a Pokémon that moved away from their original region and adapted to the new different environment, but instead of changing types, it kept its original ones and gained special powers such as Blood Moon and Mind's Eye.

Trivia

  • The only type not possessed by any regional form is Bug.
    • Additionally, there are no Flying-type regional forms that were not already that type in their original form.
  • Dark is the most common type among regional forms, with 11, while Water, Dragon, and Fairy are tied for the least common type, with only 3 regional forms each.
  • Out of the generations that introduced Pokémon that would later have regional forms, Generation I introduced the most, at 33, while Generation VII introduced the fewest, at one.
    • Generations IV, VIII, and IX are the only generations to not introduce any Pokémon that have regional forms.
  • Out of the generations that introduced regional forms, Generation VIII introduced the most, with 36, while Generation IX introduced the fewest, with four (or only two if all three Paldean Tauros breeds are counted as a single regional form).
  • Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are the only core series games following the introduction of regional forms to not feature them.
  • Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the only core series game in which a regional form exists but its respective original form does not.
    • The only regional forms in the game whose original forms are also present are Sneasel and Vulpix.
