A recent introduction to the Pokémon series has been the addition of creatures that take on different forms for various different reasons. Whether they be weather-influenced like Deerling or regional like Gastrodon, these always add a nice element of personality to the vibrant worlds of the series.

With the Alola region being made up of a variety of islands, it's not entirely surprising that another such Pokémon is being added here. Oricorio is a Flying Type Pokémon that has four potential forms, one for each of the distinctive isles of the archipelago.

Each one takes on an alternate appearance and gets a different additional type, with Fire, Electric, Psychic, and Ghost Types being added to the Baile, Pom-Pom, Pa'u, and Sensu Styles respectively. These birds add some really interesting combinations to the games and the unique new looks will make at least one of the forms appeal to virtually everyone!
