Appearance
Castform's main color is a cloudy white. Around its eyes is white and in the shape of a mask. Castform is able to change forms according to the weather. It has a rain, sun and snow form. The rest of its body is a plain gray color.
Trivia
Castform is one of few human-made "artificial" <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Pok%5Cu00e9mon%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Pok%5Cu00e9mon%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BPok%5Cu00e9mon%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="74-4343755595085e643863c8" href="/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon" title="Pokémon">Pokémon</a>.

Castform's cellular structure is closely related to the weather conditions, meaning that Castform can both affect and be affected by the weather. Depending on the current weather and climate, Castform's emotions and even body are altered. In this way, Castform tries to adapt itself to multiple environments.
This extraordinary trait is referenced in the video games through the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Forecast%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Forecast%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BForecast%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="74-4343755595085e643863c8" href="/wiki/Forecast" title="Forecast">Forecast</a> ability, which changes Castform's <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22type%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22type%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5Btype%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="74-4343755595085e643863c8" href="/wiki/Type" title="Type" class="mw-redirect">type</a> and appearance depending on the weather. In weather not particularly extreme, Castform's type is normal and its appearance is as described above.

Its head turns red, its eye markings become yellow and its head is enclosed in a translucent orange orb adorned with smaller orange orbs, giving the impression of a stylized sun. Its lower body becomes larger and paler, like a puffy white cloud.
