Rotom Evolution

Rotom does not evolve, but can take on one of five additional forms that change its typing. These forms can be accessed through the use of mechanical items purchased from Ginter the merchant in Jubilife City.

There are five mechanical items in total, each of which appears one at a time and at random in Ginter's shop. Upon purchasing the mechanical items, the corresponding appliance will appear in the player's quarters. Interacting with each appliance allows the player to change Rotom's form.
