Pokedex Entries
| Game | Entry |
|---|---|
| Ruby | CASTFORM’s appearance changes with the weather. This POKéMON gained the ability to use the vast power of nature to protect its tiny body. |
| Sapphire | CASTFORM borrows the power of nature to transform itself into the guises of the sun, rain clouds, and snow clouds. This POKéMON’s feelings change with the weather. |
| Emerald | It alters its form depending on the weather. Changes in the climate such as the temperature and humidity appear to affect its cellular structure. |
| Black2 | Temperature and weather affect its cellular structure, so this Pokémon changes form according to the weather. |
| White2 | Temperature and weather affect its cellular structure, so this Pokémon changes form according to the weather. |
| OmegaRuby | Castform’s appearance changes with the weather. This Pokémon gained the ability to use the vast power of nature to protect its tiny body. |
| AlphaSapphire | Castform borrows the power of nature to transform itself into the guises of the sun, rain, and snow-clouds. This Pokémon’s feelings change with the weather. |
| Sun | It changes its form depending on the weather. Changes in the temperature or humidity appear to affect its cellular structure. |
| Moon | Its form changes on its own, due to its cells’ sensitive reactions to temperature and humidity. |
| UltraSun | Although its form changes with the weather, that is apparently the result of a chemical reaction and not the result of its own free will. |
| UltraMoon | Its form changes depending on the weather. The rougher conditions get, the rougher Castform’s disposition! |
