Gell? Transformation? Why? What exactly is the connection between being able to have your aura mimic properties and transforming your own flesh? Apart from Bisuke's odd shrinking-trick the only Nen-user I can think of who definitely transforms his own body is Illumi. Who happens to be a Manipulation type. Not that that's the only way I could think off for achieving something like what Gell did. Materialization comes to mind. Materialize the snake on top of your arm/hand like a kind of glove. Or did we get a Togashi-made info-book regarding Gell's Nen type? Frankly at this point I'd say it's way to early to say anything definite and Hisoka's method is vague to the point of being useless. Clook MAY be using Nen to control those birds. But given that the Zoldiec-family seems to be able to train birds and other animals to do their bidding the regular way I see no absolute need to use Nen oô Piyon can certainly remind one of Sharnak. Just as easily I'd say she can seem easily bored, which would remind me more of the Transformation group. Cheadle might be a high-strung Conjurer (not that Shizuku of the Ryodan seemed particularly high-strung to me) or she might be an overly logical Manipulator. Heck she might be a simple and straightfoward Reinforcement type with an unusually large brain. The personality method just doesn't work. Even with a sample of the characters Nen-ability it often doesn't work. I recall dozens of discussions about Morau's Nen type. People made points for Manipulation, Emission, Transformation and Conjuration and that was after seeing both his character AND his ability in action oO
