It changes its shading to match its surroundings so it can sneak up on prey. Only its belly patterns stay fixed.

So I’m very curious. What’s the interaction here if you have a Vaporeon VIV in play with a Memory Capsule? Kecleon becomes a Water type with the unit energy attached, which means its ability gets shut off, turning it back to a Colorless Pokemon, meaning its ability works again, which turns it back into a Water type, which turns off the ability, which makes it a Colorless Pokemon, which makes it a water type again, and so there’s just an endless loop? What type would Kecleon be?
Kevin Young
It’s not an endless loop. If Vaporeon has a Memory Capsule attached, this Kecleon with with the Unit Energy will no longer have the ability since it was Fire type, so it just remains Colorless.

It turns the power off, and Kecleon is just normal type. Chromashift Kecleon has precedence from official rulings on this type of effect.

Personally, I would think that because Torrential Awakening will always shut off Unit Color 1 when it activates, you would just have to play Kelceon as the Colorless type. Yeah, technically, it is sort of an endless loop, but the end result is always the same: Unit Color 1 gets suppressed and Kelceon becomes Colorless again.
