Zelda transforms
Zelda begins transforming.
transforming
In Brawl, as the form is changing, the disc must load in order for the process to be complete. In Melee, it does not take as long.
Sheik appears
Zelda is finally transformed into Sheik, her alter ego.

Transform is Zelda and Sheik's down special move. It allows Zelda to transform into Sheik and Sheik to transform into Zelda. If one is quick enough, one can interrupt the transformation in its first frames of animation.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the animation for the transformation takes significantly longer than in Melee, but Zelda/Sheik is invincible during the majority of the transformation. The extra length is caused by a hardware limitation of the Wii's large discs (compared to the Game Cube's), making the loading process take longer; while making the transformation more punishable, it is possible to use this move to dodge Final Smashes such as Cook Kirby and Tabuu's Off Waves. The length can be shortened by pausing or through a timeslow effect such as the Timer; if replay data containing either of these happening is saved, the game will freeze in-replay to load, but the music and any sound effects will continue as normal. This technique is useless in any tournament that bans in-match pausing.

If multiple Transforms or Pokémon Changes occur at the same time, they'll all take slightly longer.

When not on Wi-Fi, pressing the shield button can shorten the transformation time.

Origin

The move is based on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time where Sheik reveals to have been Zelda in disguise all along. Using the power of the Triforce, she is able to physically change her appearance, allowing her to disguise herself by changing her clothing, hair, eye, and skin color. The sound that plays when Zelda/Sheik transform is the traditional Zelda "secret revealed" and "puzzle solved" chime. When Sheik reveals herself as Zelda, she crosses her hands, while the final Triforce piece appears on her hand, and then spins toward the screen, revealing her to be Zelda.
