Effect

The Reins of Unity can be used to fuse Calyrex with Glastrier or Spectrier to become Ice Rider Calyrex or Shadow Rider Calyrex respectively.

While the player has Calyrex in its Ice Rider or Shadow Rider forms, the Reins of Unity can be used to separate Calyrex from Glastrier or Spectrier. This will cause Calyrex to forget any moves that aren't available to its base form.

The Reins of Unity can only fuse together one Calyrex and Glastrier or Spectrier at a time. In order to fuse a Calyrex with a different Glastrier or Spectrier, any existing fusion must be undone.
