Rotom is a rather unique Pok�mon in that it has multiple forms within the game. These forms are all obtained by having the Secret Key. This is given over WiFi in Japan from September 28th to November 4th. International Dates will be known upon release

Once you get the Secret Key, go to the Eterna Galactic Hideout. If you have emptied Eterna of Team Galactic, you can go to one of the rooms and use the Secret Key between a bookcase and a wall. This will open up a whole new room in the building


When you go into the room, you will see 5 different appliances on the floor. If you have Rotom with you, you can go up to any of them and select it. Once selected, Rotom will possess the appliance and thus you now have one of the new Rotom Forms. However there are a few things to note.

When you select the appliance and Rotom takes possession of it, Rotom will have the ability to learn a new attack. This is dependant on the Form that is is taking. This attack can only be kept upon this particular form. Once you change to another form, Rotom will forget that attack and learn a new one.


To change back to Rotom's normal form, all you have to do is select the area that the appliance once was and Rotom will revert. Although Rotom's stats will lower, this is the only way to get the original Rotom back. Rotom will also forget any specialised attack it had

Below are the forms of Rotom, the items you need to select to get to it and the attacks that each form knows.

Well 'it' is a Ghost/Electric type Pokemon that can possess electronics. It is unknown if it's good or bad exactly but it does cause mistcheif...

Rotom is awsome now, but damn if it had be an event just to get it's new forms! Pah! Well at least I have Action Replay...

That's a bit of a dissapointment really, but at least it's special attack stat is pretty high anyway to make up for it.
Having the Japanese version of Platinum I've used Rotom throughout since I caught it as it's obtainable the first time you enter the mansion in Eterna Forest, I didn't bother with the event though.
Either way, point is with the extra moves and same typing when he changes forms he at least has the advantage of being used in some pretty fun ways.

Sounds like neat Pokemon, interested in the type of damage it can make.
