Rotom (Japanese: ロトム Rotom) is a dual-type Electric/Ghost Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, Rotom has the ability to possess the motors of certain appliances and change forms.

  • When it does not possess an appliance, it is Electric/Ghost-type.
  • When it possesses a microwave oven, it becomes Heat Rotom, and is Electric/Fire-type.
  • When it possesses a washing machine, it becomes Wash Rotom, and is Electric/Water-type.
  • When it possesses a refrigerator, it becomes Frost Rotom, and is Electric/Ice-type.
  • When it possesses an electric fan, it becomes Fan Rotom, and is Electric/Flying-type.
  • When it possesses a lawnmower, it becomes Mow Rotom, and is Electric/Grass-type.

Additionally, in Generation VII, it has the ability to possess a special Pokédex and become the Rotom Pokédex. In Generation VIII, Rotom has the ability to possess a smartphone that doubles up as a Pokédex and becomes the Rotom Phone. In the same generation, Rotom are also used in Rotomi terminals and Drone Rotoms.

Depending on the game, its form can be changed at will in Rotom's Room in the Team Galactic Eterna Building, Rotom's Room in Silph Co., the storeroom in Shopping Mall Nine, on the second floor of Professor Sycamore's Lab in Lumiose City, in Professor Birch's Lab in Littleroot Town, in the basement of the Pokémon Research Lab on Alola's Route 1, or with a Rotom Catalog in Galar. In Generation IV, Rotom changes back to its normal form when taken into the Union Room or Wi-Fi Club, or when deposited in the Day Care.

In Generation IV, it is Electric/Ghost-type regardless of its form.

Biology

 
Rotom transforming

Rotom is a Pokémon that has a body of plasma and is shaped like a lightning rod. There is a whitish blue aura of electricity around it that forms lightning bolt-shaped appendages. It has teeth, and its unique, blue eyes have a dividing line across them. As seen in the anime, Rotom will often pull pranks on unsuspecting people. As also seen in the anime, Rotom has the ability to time travel.

 
Rotom and the appliances

Rotom has the ability to enter and control appliances. Starting in Platinum, it also has five extra forms, each based on a household appliance, which can be accessed by possessing specific appliances. The possessed appliances are based on a microwave oven (Heat Rotom), washing machine (Wash Rotom), refrigerator (Frost Rotom), electric fan (Fan Rotom), and a lawnmower (Mow Rotom). When Rotom changes form, its eyes and electric aura change colors, and its aura appendages take on different shapes: red with oven mitts as Heat Rotom, blue with clothespins as Wash Rotom, purple with lightning bolts as Frost Rotom, yellow with air curls as Fan Rotom, and green with a ripped strip as Mow Rotom. According to the Rotom Catalog, Rotom in its base form is actually possessing a light bulb.

While Rotom typically uses their abilities to make mischief, some Rotom have taken to inhabiting electronics with the intent of helping others, as seen in Generations VII and VIII. The Rotom Pokédex, found in Alola; and the Rotom Phones, Rotomi, and Drone Rotoms found in Galar, are some examples. Some of these particular forms allow Rotom to speak human languages.

Diamond & Pearl chapter

Main article: Diamond's Rotom

Rotom first appeared in Robust Rotom, where it caused havoc for Diamond and Pearl at the Old Chateau until Diamond understood that it only wanted to return in its plasma television and led it there.

Platinum chapter

During the subsequent fight against Charon and Giratina, Rotom initially joined the battle transforming into its five forms, then left the fighting to the other legendary Pokémon only to strike at the very last, destroying Charon's device that allowed him to control every Pokémon and thus putting an end to his evil plans. After that, Rotom decided to stay with Diamond.

Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon chapter

Main article: Rotom Pokédex (Adventures)

In The Grand Entrance and Delivery Boy Sun, a Rotom accompanied Moon as she was tasked with delivering it to Professor Kukui. It later possessed Moon's Pokédex, becoming the Rotom Pokédex.

Sword & Shield chapter

In PASS03, two Rotom possessed the smartphones of Sōdo and Shirudomiria. A fantasy in the same chapter featured a third Rotom.

A Drone Rotom appeared in this chapter, where it is called by Opal during her match against Sōdo, where she announces her retirement after the current tournament.

Form change

When Rotom changes into an appliance form, it learns a new move in the same way that other Pokémon may learn new moves upon evolving; if Rotom would change from one appliance form to another and knows the special move of its current form, the old special move is automatically forgotten and Rotom learns the new one. If Rotom changes to its base form, it forgets the special move of the form it was in (if it still knows it); if the only move that Rotom knows right before reverting to its base form is the form's special move, then that move will be replaced with Thunder Shock.

Trivia

 
Rotom Pokédex's type in the anime
  • When Rotom is encountered in the Old Chateau in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, the music is Battle! (Legendary Pokémon), even though Rotom is not classified as a Legendary. Rotom is, to date, the only non-Legendary Pokémon to do this.
  • Rotom's alternate forms, along with Arceus's forms, were the only alternative forms of a Pokémon not featured in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. However, despite being introduced a year before the game was released like Rotom, Shaymin and Giratina's alternate forms made an appearance in the game.
  • Rotom is tied with Tynamo as the lightest Electric-type Pokémon.
  • Rotom was the first Pokémon mentioned to have unknown gender in the anime.
  • Rotom and each of its alternate forms were designed by different designers:
    • Rotom's base form was designed by Ken Sugimori.
    • Heat Rotom was designed by Lee HyunJung.
    • Wash Rotom was designed by Hiroki Fuchino.
    • Frost Rotom was designed by Hironobu Yoshida.
    • Fan Rotom was designed by Motofumi Fujiwara.
    • Mow Rotom was designed by Yusuke Ohmura.
  • In That New Old Gang of Mine!, Ash's Rotom Phone listed the Rotom Pokédex as a pure Electric type.

Generation V type change

  • Rotom is the only Pokémon to have its type changed to a type that was not newly introduced.
  • No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Rotom's base form, Heat Rotom, or Mow Rotom.
  • Despite becoming part Flying-type, Fan Rotom retains the Ability Levitate, being the only Flying-type Pokémon with this Ability. As its Flying-type already makes it immune to Ground-type moves, its Ability is effectively useless under normal conditions.
    • In Inverse Battles, Fan Rotom is still protected from Ground moves due to Levitate, making it the only Flying-type Pokémon to not be affected by Ground-type moves in these battles.
  • All of Rotom's appliance forms except Mow Rotom are tied for or have the fewest weaknesses of all Pokémon of their secondary types.
  • All of Rotom's appliance forms are the lightest Pokémon of their secondary types.

Origin

Rotom appears to be based on Pulseman, who was designed by Pokémon designer Ken Sugimori, although it may also be inspired by the unexplained phenomenon of ball lightning. Its Pokédex entry brings to mind gremlins. Its possession of other objects may be based on poltergeists or tsukumogami. Rotom may also be an embodiment of electronic "magic smoke". Additionally, it may be based on electrical energy. Finally, Rotom's general shape seems to be based on that of a light bulb.

Name origin

Rotom is motor backwards; this may refer to the fact that motors make many appliances function, while Rotom makes them fail.

In Pokémon Platinum, an old notebook in Rotom's Room describes how a person discovered and named the first known Rotom. It appeared out of a lawn mower's motor, and the person named it Rotom due to this origin.
