Harry here, filling in for Ray while he’s out of town! Don’t worry folks, I won’t bring TOO MUCH of my comic-loving zaniness!
Probably.
Castform is a Pokemon that can change its appearance and typing, one of the few Pokemon capable of doing so. It’s grey “normal” form serves to hide its amazing ability. I like how this piece focuses on the standard Castform while hinting at its extraordinary power through colorful spirals around it.
Depending on the weather, Castform can shift into a different type of Pokemon! Yet, despite the different versions, it is still the same Pokemon, united in harmony within. This beautiful picture, shows this unity in which the four types appear as one.
I suppose it’s a lot like the weather. Different, yet originating from the same place.
Of course, being from Los Angeles, I do have a preference for a certain type of weather.
You guessed it, sun! Yes, yes, we need rain (and snow), but I enjoy weather that leaves you warm, dry, and happy.

Like all (or most) Pokemon, Castform, despite being multifaceted, also needs friends!
Hopefully this Castform can resolve the situation before things get out of hand!
Thanks for reading! Ray will be back next week to bring you your regular sense of normalcy in the Pokemon of the Week!
