Types of Devil Fruit
All Devil Fruit are categorized into three types/classes. Currently of all named fruits, only Tamago's Tama Tama no Mi, which allows him to regenerate from an egg into a chicken, and also two non-canon Devil Fruits have an undetermined type.
Paramecia - The most common of the three types, Paramecia-type Devil Fruits grant their users superhuman powers, such as shock wave generation and locking onto targets. Paramecia Fruits can alter features of the users body such as a rubber physique or a body of blades. Some Paramecia Fruits allow the user to modify the people, objects, and environment around them, like making things levitate or turning people into toys. Finally, there are some users that can generate and manipulate substances, such as wax and poison.
Zoan - The users of Zoan-type Devil Fruits gain the ability to transform into an animal. The user can also transform into a hybrid form of their own species and the species the fruit allows them to transform into. A recently discovered science allows Zoan Fruits to be integrated into objects, bringing the object to life and granting it the standard Zoan transformations. Carnivorous animal Zoan's are better suited for combat. Zoan Fruits have a number of sub-classifications, including:
Ancient Zoan - Zoan Fruits that allow the user to transform into an extinct species, such as dinosaurs. Ancient Zoan's are rare and they appear to be stronger than regular Zoan's.
Mythical Zoan - Zoan Fruits that allow the user to transform into mythological creatures, such as a dragon or a phoenix. Mythical Zoan animals tend to have special powers, like a phoenix Zoan being able to generate flames that have healing powers. Mythical Zoans are the rarest type of Devil Fruit, even more so than Logia's.
Artificial Zoan - Artificially created Zoan Fruits that cause the user to permanently take on an animal characteristic; though, much more rarely, the user would be able to transform at will. The Artificial Zoan Fruits had a 10% success rate, while the other 90%, in addition to not gaining animal traits and losing the ability to swim, were stripped of the ability to express negative emotions, leaving them only able to smile and laugh, regardless of how the actually feel. The Artificial Fruits were developed by Vegapunk and Donquixote Doflamingo.[32][33]
Logia - The rarest of the three Devil Fruit types, Logia-type Devil Fruits allow their users to create, control, and transform themselves into a natural element, whether it be a solid element, like ice or sand; a liquid element, like mud or syrup; a gaseous element, like smoke and poison gas; energy, like fire or lightning; or into a materialization of an abstract concept, such as darkness. The elemental transformation effectively makes the user intangible, as well as allowing the user to remain in control of their body, even when it is broken into pieces. They also gain every ability related to that element, such as sand being able to absorb moisture or lightning being able to travel through conductive objects.
There are devil fruits with undetermined class:
Canon
Tama Tama no Mi: Gives the user's body the composition of an egg shell, which, if cracked open, will allow the user to regenerate into a stronger form from the egg yolk. This power makes the user more and more chicken-like with each regeneration. It was eaten by Tamago.
Laffitte's unnamed Devil Fruit, that allows him to sprout angelic wings and utilize them to fly.
Karasu's unnamed Devil Fruit that allows him to turn his body and clothes into a murder of crows.
Non-Canon
Meta Meta no Mi: Allows the user to control liquid metal, making them a Liquid Metal Human (液体金属人間 Ekitai Kinzoku Ningen). It was eaten by Graydle.
Zuma Zuma no Mi: Allows the user to control plasma, making the user a Plasma Human (プラズマ人間 Purazuma Ningen). It was eaten by Smash.
