Revision as of 00:31, 2 August 2018
The Switching Spell is one of many transforming spells used to swap two different objects for one another. They are studied in the fourth year in transfiguration class[1]. Hermione Granger, however, gained points for knowing about this spell in her first year.
Practitioners
- Hermione Granger
- Neville Longbottom (Failed; put ears onto cactus)
Behind the scenes
- Hermione Granger idly suggested to Harry Potter that he might use this spell on a dragon to turn its fangs to wine-gums, but rejected the idea as impractical because as a rule it was nearly impossible to cast a spell through a dragon's hide.
- Hermione also gains some house points for knowing about these spells before they studied them.
- Neville Longbottom proved unable to perform a Switching Spell by October 1994, a fact that was criticised by Minerva McGonagall, who called the spell "simple".
- Harry Potter forgot the definition of a Switching Spell when doing his written Transfiguration O.W.L.[2]
