How to change Rotom in Pokemon Legends: Arceus

In Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Rotom can be changed through the use of several expensive items.

His form can be changed the in following way:

• Purchase a Mechanical Item from Ginter, who will appear outside the Galaxy HQ
• There are five items, all starting with the word Mechanical: the Box, Tub, Cabinet, Pinwheel, and Circular Saw. Each of these will be delivered to the player's home upon purchase.
• Have Rotom interact with any of the items in question and it will gain a new subtype and new moves.
• By re-acquainting Rotom with different electronics, the player can add new moves to their team and face challenges with proper tools.
• Although the items are very expensive, they do provide a helpful addition to the team.

What are the items and what do they do?

Each Mechanical Item in Pokemon Legends: Arceus is a household electronic that gives a hint to what power they provide.

The different items are as follows:

• The Mechanical Box is a microwave that costs 10,000 Pokemon Dollars. It allows Rotom to take on a Fire-type and use moves such as Overheat.
• The Mechanical Tub is a Washing Machine that confers water power upon Rotom. It's available for one day at the cost of $20,000, and allows Rotom to use Hydro Pump.
• The Mechanical Cabinet is a refrigerator that grants Ice powers, allowing Rotom to use Blizzard for only $20,000.
• The Mechanical Pinwheel is an oddly named desk fan. It grants Rotom the flying type move Air Slash and the Flying subtype.
• The Mechanical Circular Saw is the most expensive item at $40,000. This item is a lawnmower that grants Rotom the Grass-type move Leaf Storm.

Some of these mixtures are extremely rare in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. There aren't a lot of dual-type Pokemon to choose from, making the massive price tag of the Mechanical Items an interesting value proposition.

Rotom is a fascinating Pokemon who can serve a ton of roles on any team.
