Read more ↓Castform, the Weather Pokémon, is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III. It is unique in that it does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, but instead changes its form depending on the prevailing weather conditions in battle. Its four forms are Normal (default), Sunny, Rainy, and Snowy, each taking on a different type (Fire, Water, and Ice respectively) and appearance to reflect the weather. Castform's ability, Forecast, allows it to change forms automatically. In the games, Castform is often found in areas with dynamic weather, such as the Weather Institute in the Hoenn region, where it was originally created through scientific research. Its diet is not explicitly detailed, but as a Pokémon created to monitor weather, it likely subsists on environmental energy or small atmospheric particles. Its role in the anime often involves helping characters understand and predict weather patterns, highlighting its scientific origins. Culturally, Castform symbolizes adaptability and the ever-changing nature of the environment, making it a beloved, albeit often underestimated, Pokémon.
