What if abilities changed the appearance of a Pokemon?
Something like #AbilityForms (https://twitter.com/hashtag/AbilityForms?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)#pokemon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/pokemon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #fakemon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/fakemon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #fanart (https://twitter.com/hashtag/fanart?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #dog (https://twitter.com/hashtag/dog?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) pic.twitter.com/Sbe4JmYYu2 (https://t.co/Sbe4JmYYu2)

What if a Pokemon’s ability was used to determine how a Pokemon looked in game?
That was the very questions that N0Rtist asked on Twitter (also known as X) asked! And as you see above, they drew an example of how Breloom would look like if it had abilities based on it’s three abilities: Effect Spore, Poison Heal and Technician.
And each form look different and unique! You can see how Effect Spore Breloom has a veil of spores around it. While Poison Heal Breloom looks mostly normal but rather sickly. Lastly, Technician Breloom looks sleek and fast.
And from there! A brand new trend started to take Twitter by storm! So many other Pokemon fan artists started to create their own Pokemon forms based on the abilities of their favorite Pokemon!
Tyrantrum by Dragonith
Warm-up for today. Wanted to do some ability variants for my favorite Pokémon, Tyrantrum lol.#AbilityForms (https://twitter.com/hashtag/AbilityForms?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #Pokemon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Pokemon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #Fakemon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Fakemon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)https://t.co/SAofW7gzjg pic.twitter.com/4bD4UiYnKj (https://t.co/4bD4UiYnKj)

Below is what Dragonith thinks Tyrantrum would look like if it had forms based on Strong Jaw and Rock Head. It is really cool to see how Dragonith thinks Tyrantrum would adapt based on the ability the Pokemon has. How Strong Jaw would develop a bigger and strong jaw for Tyrantrum. Meanwhile, Rock Head would result in a strong
Minccino by GayBoyColor
Minccino ability forms… kinda! https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/2.3/72x72/1f495.png https://t.co/VM25oB89Ft pic.twitter.com/KnWmQ59i30 (https://t.co/KnWmQ59i30)

Here we have Minccino by GayBoyColor with all it’s forms! Kinda…I mean. Minccino does make a cute charm. Literally.
But look at those sweet skills that Minccino is doing on the DDR floor!
Ludicolo by FBarns99
Grooving!! Ludicolo #AbilityForms (https://twitter.com/hashtag/AbilityForms?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) !!

Time to groove with Ludicolo by FBarnes99! No matter what ability Ludicolo has, it is one grooving dude! Unless it has Rain Dish where Ludicolo is just chilling. Look how peaceful Ludicolo looks like.

This Oshawott is ready for battle! TheOshawott17 is showing how Oshawott would look like with the Shell Armor ability. It sure does have a lot of armor to go into battle! No Critical Hit will hit this little guy!
Houndour by _FrostedFires
As a bit of fun here's houndour https://t.co/MJiJ6kF11l pic.twitter.com/FcOqNjosAg (https://t.co/FcOqNjosAg)

Here are some Houndour by _FrostedFires. And does it look scary! Especially a Houndour with the Unnerve ability! I surely will be scared to eat anything if that Houndour was staring me down!
Emboar by Inkster_Rabbit
I saw this and just HAD to do this with my favorite pokemon emboar (also may be working on a goodra version) https://t.co/pqVOtgP413 pic.twitter.com/b6xrSAcGDl (https://t.co/b6xrSAcGDl)

Emboar has some cool forms by Inkster_Rabbit! The Emboar with the Blaze ability looks ready to burn things! Though, that Reckless Emboar sure does have the scars to move how reckless they really can be!
Mawile by Vitreous_Glassy
prob wont finish this one but figured id make one for Mawile too #fakemon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/fakemon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) https://t.co/e8jEzRgzDA pic.twitter.com/lbSquMchqr (https://t.co/lbSquMchqr)

These are some cool Mawile forms by Vitreous_Glassy. Especially a Mawile with the Intimidate ability. Really gives you vibes similar to Arbok and how it could use the patterns on it’s chest to intimidate foes.
Alolan Exeggutor by ICETWeiZ
A predictable joke#AbilityForms (https://twitter.com/hashtag/AbilityForms?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) https://t.co/lfSLDxRoXa pic.twitter.com/Vz4wWK03g0 (https://t.co/Vz4wWK03g0)

Well, this Alolan Exeggutor by ICETWeiZ looks about ready to do some farming with it’s Harvest ability. Simply standing there in the sun watching over it’s berry crops. Nice hat on to keep cool under the sun.
Staraptor by ArgaDiamon

Here is a different take on two abilities you have already seen on a different Pokemon! We have Staraptor by ArgaDiamon! Here you can see Staraptor being a little reckless in a different way. That is sure one way to depict the Reckless ability.
Azumarill by PsephRain8
Hopping on this train because this is a really fun idea!
I doodled these kinda quick but I hope people like the silly blorbos :) https://t.co/KKRRD06jsN pic.twitter.com/Hzgg5grVMY (https://t.co/Hzgg5grVMY)

Here is an Azumarill by PsephRain8. Just fun little round guys. Though, I can see how Huge Power was such a force to be feared! Especially if an Azumarill looked like that with the Huge Power ability.
Skitty by Poso_11
#PrideMonth (https://twitter.com/hashtag/PrideMonth?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) https://t.co/FRiwQIcP0T pic.twitter.com/Rg7aIf36GQ (https://t.co/Rg7aIf36GQ)

Last but not least! Just in time for Pride Month! Is Skitty by Poso_11! Yes, Skitty with Cute Charm is really cute. And then Skitty with Wonder Skin does have amazing skin. I will need to remember to ask about their skin routine.
Though, Skitty with the Normalize ability is right. Love is love and we should normalize that. What a great ability!
We hope that you found these artist renditions of how Pokemon would look like based on their abilities. And that you also found these to be fantastic fan art!
