If disguised as Zacian, Zamazenta, or Eternatus, the Pokémon will not be able to Dynamax. If the Pokémon Dynamaxes while disguised as a Pokémon with the Gigantamax Factor, it will Dynamax into the standard form of the Pokémon - not the Gigantamax form. Illusion can now disguise itself as another Pokémon with Illusion of the same species. If Illusion would disguise the Pokémon as another Pokémon of the same species, it fails to disguise the Pokémon at all.

If a wild Pokémon with Illusion successfully calls an ally for help in an SOS Battle, it will disguise itself as the summoned ally.

In Pokémon Black and White, in the special event encounter with a wild Zoroark in Lostlorn Forest, the wild Zoroark will be disguised as Entei, Raikou, or Suicune (depending on the Pokémon that triggered the event).

Pokémon cannot transform into a Pokémon that is disguised by Illusion.Īdditionally, wild Pokémon can disguise themselves with Illusion under certain circumstances. If a Pokémon obtains this Ability with Imposter or Transform, it will not disguise itself. Illusion cannot be copied by Trace, Power of Alchemy, or Receiver.

Skill Swap fails if either Pokémon has Illusion. Role Play fails if the target has the Ability Illusion. If a Pokémon with Illusion uses a Z-Move, the illusion wears off immediately before using the Z-Move. If the Pokémon with Illusion is hit by a multi-strike move, the illusion will be broken after the first hit. Indirect damage (such as from a Life Orb, weather, status conditions, recoil, etc.) will not break the illusion. The illusion disappears if the Pokémon has its Ability changed or suppressed or if it takes damage from a damaging move. On the user interface, an opponent's Pokémon disguised by Illusion will appear to be the type of the Pokémon it is disguised as (even if it is affected by a move such as Soak). The effect is only aesthetic-effects such as Attract still use the Pokémon's actual gender. Illusion replicates the appearance (including species, form, and Shininess), nickname (or species name if none), Poké Ball, and gender of the Pokémon it is masquerading as however, it does not replicate the level of the masqueraded Pokémon. When a Trainer's Pokémon with Illusion enters battle, Illusion changes the appearance of the Pokémon to that of the last conscious, non- Egg Pokémon in its Trainer's party.
