Power Construct (Japanese: スワームチェンジ Swarm Change) is an Ability introduced in Generation VII. It is one of the signature Abilities of Zygarde.

Effect

In battle

When the HP of a Zygarde 10% Forme or 50% Forme with Power Construct falls below half, it changes into Complete Forme.

Since Zygarde Complete Forme has a higher base HP stat, Zygarde gains HP equal to the difference between its old maximum HP and its new maximum HP upon changing form. It will also default back to Dragon/Ground typing.

At the end of the battle, Zygarde will change back to its original forme (whichever it started the battle in) and that forme's base health. If its HP at the end of the battle is above the max HP of its incomplete form, it will have full health again (PP and statuses will not be healed).

Outside of battle

It is unknown if Power Construct has effect outside of battle.
