Transformation is a slang term used by Magic R&D to describe the following effect: "Target creature becomes a (color) (card type) with N power and N toughness."[1] This mechanic is primary in blue

Transformation can be temporary, through a one-shot spell that lasts for the turn, or more permanent, usually through an Aura. It overwrites the base power and toughness of the creature. This ability used to be in both blue and white, but R&D decided to focus it in blue.[1]
