When talking about Niet's original world, Hypermode is similar to Mega Evolution. Pokémon can transform into Hypermode when they're angry or in a similar emotional state. A Pokémon in Hypermode gets Zophan as an additional type, which is super-effective against itself. The base stats of the Pokémon also changes, though the total amount is similar to Mega Evolution. It is also possible that the Ability changes when transforming into Hypermode.

Changes that have been noted include:

Zophan is a liquid substance located within Zophan Canisters. It is a limited resource that originates from Niet's home dimension, the Dark World. Beyond this, it has no other influence upon the game's mechanics.

Hypermode

Not to be confused with Hypermode accounts.

In-universe, Hypermode behaves similarly to Mega Evolution but does not require an item. Any Pokémon that has been exposed to Zophan can temporarily undergo a Hypermode transformation, usually after experiencing excessive emotional stimulus. This will generally produce a state of high aggression in the affected individual.

Changes that have been noted include:

  • Base Stats - Transformed Pokémon gain an increase in Base Stats. The total does not exceed that of Mega Evolution, however distribution of the stats themselves varies. For example the Special Attack stat may be increased instead of the Attack stat.
  • Typing - Zophan is gained as an additional type. It has no weakness or resistance to any other type, but remains Super-Effective against itself.
  • Ability - It is currently unknown if all Pokémon are subject to Ability changes. The only recorded instance thus far is Niet's Schadenfreude; an Ability that recovers HP by 1/8th of the damage dealt to an opponent.[1]
