Pokémorph is a fanon term that has two meanings; it is used as a term for either a character (usually a human) that has the ability to transform into one or more Pokémon, or an anthropomorphic Pokémon. The former meaning is somewhat related to polymorphism and is usually based upon the Animorphs book series by K. A. Applegate, while the latter is used to describe a creature that is part-human, part-Pokémon. While the term itself is not used in any canon, signs of both meanings do appear in some form within the Pokémon canon, specifically the Pokémon RéBURST manga and the Burst technique used by the serial's characters, such as main character Ryouga when combined with Zekrom in his Burst form.
