Form

A form is a term that applies generally to any state of a monster, be it Alpha, Ultra, Mega or Quantum.

=Form Types=

Alpha
An Alpha Forms is one of the two main types of monster forms. All Monsters are required to have an Alpha Form, as this is the form that the monster starts off the game in. All alpha forms have their own unique abilities and stats. Alpha forms are generally weaker then other forms of monsters, but they can still contribute unique abilities and traits to the monster's play style. A monster can, from their hyper form, go back down to their alpha form for free at any time, as long as it is on their turn and does not interrupt an attack, advance, or action.

Hyper Forms
A Hyper Form is a type of Monster Form. A Monster does not start off the game in their Hyper Form, although they can "Hyper Up" into their Hyper Form by paying that form's Hyper Cost, or by having that Monster's Alpha Form reduced to zero Health. Hyper Forms have their own Health Stat, along with unique Abilities that make it unique from an Alpha Form. Most Hyper Forms also gain some way to deal Super Damage, while most Alpha Forms have none. Hyper Forms come in three varieties: Ultra, Mega, and Quantum. An Alpha form is the form that all monsters begin with at the beginning of the game. Each monster only has 1 Alpha form. Each player must include 1 Alpha form and a matching Hyper form in their force.

Ultra
All Monsters are packaged with a corresponding Ultra Form when they are pulled from a Monster Booster, thus an Ultra Form is the easiest Hyper Form to obtain. Ultra Forms normally follow a similar Play Style to their corresponding Alpha Form, commonly sharing one or two Abilities with their Alpha Form. Most Ultra Forms have a Hyper Cost ranging from a 3 to a 5.

Mega
A Mega Form for a particular Monster can be obtained through many ways, including Prize Support for a Tournament, Booster Box Top Redemption, Pre-Order Gifts, among others. All Monsters have a Mega Form, although some can be harder to obtain that others. Mega Form Play Styles range from just about anything, whether or not it crosses over well with the corresponding Alpha Form. Mega Forms can be given Abilities before other Figures, such as Marker on the Ares Mothership, and some Mega Forms have Abilities that are entirely unique to that Monster, such as Sabotage on Rogzor. Mega Form's Hyper Costs can range from a 2 to a 6.

Quantum
Quantum Forms are the rarest Monster form in the game, with only a select few Monsters possessing a Quantum Form. Quantum Form Play Styles are unique due to their Quantum Statistics. These Quantum Statistics are boosted by the Quantum Form's Hyper Cost if a Quantum Form has 5 or more P-Die. In addition to this, some Quantum forms are given a Quantum-specific Ability, such as Temporal Displacement. Quantum Forms thus far have had a Hyper Cost ranging from 1 to 3.
