Darmanitan is a Fire type Pokémon introduced in Generation 5.

Darmanitan was introduced in Pokémon Black/White and has an alternate form, Zen Mode Darmanitan. Darmanitan with the hidden ability Zen Mode transforms into this mode when its HP drops below half, changing its typing and stats.

Darmanitan has a Galarian Form, introduced in Pokémon Sword/Shield. As it adapted to life in the cold, its fire sac became dormant and it developed an organ that produces cold air instead. Galarian Darmanitan also has the same Zen Mode hidden ability.
