Chopper's fruit is truly a Human-Human fruit. I mean, you have to use drugs to reach your peak.

Didn't chopper explicitly say he no longer needs the rumble ball for all of his basic points and in addition only needs to consume a singld rumble ball for monster point post time skip?

I'd like to make a correction, which is very important. Mushrooms are in fact NOT vegetables and indeed NOT fruits. Mushrooms are mushrooms, a completely separate entity from both vegetables and fruits, they belong to the group of Fungi. This is similar to how spiders are neither bugs or insects, but simply spiders.

My hottest take is that Chopper's fruit is, in actuality, the Hito Hito No Mi Model: Mink. I first considered this in Zhou when they offhandedly mentioned that the minks call humans "lesser minks" because they think humans are just mostly-hairless minks. The similarities between Sulong and Monster Point made me even more suspicious, and seeing Chopper's rumble ball working for Bepo got me 100% in on the theory.

I said it years ago, and I'll say it again. I genuinely think that Chopper's fruit is actually a sub type of the Hito Hito no Mi, and it's actually something like a sasquatch or bigfoot fruit, but he doesn't realize it. Kinda the same way Luffy was wrong about what fruit he ate.

After the 2 year training arc, chopper doesn't need the rumble ball anymore except for his gigantic form. He basically modified his power using science. As for his "human" form, it's really just a very hairy human, according to one piece standards. Though after the training arc he made it bulkier and more monstrous as you said. The only strange thing is that he's still so small in his hybrid form despite reaching an adult size in his animal form.

mushrooms are not vegetables mushrooms are mushrooms

The thing with Chopper that people don't see as a whole is that Chopper changes to become like the humans he's around the most or the one's he looks up to the most. When he's with Ussop and Nami he becomes a scardy cat. With Zoro he becomes Brave. With Sanji he gets really selfless. With Luffy he tries to become strong. With Robin he flexes his intelligence. With Franky he starts to cut loose. During the time skip he made a form that looks just like the humans from the island. Monster point is how he feels other humans viewed him and he doesn't want to be seen that way so he defaults to small and cute so he can be likeable like a baby even though he's definitely a teenager. Chopper changes himself to be like humans personifying his Human Human fruit.

Pekoms used his ability twice: once in fish-man island and the second time in zou when jack was attacking zunesha and everything was falling sideways, Pekoms used his shell to “cushion” his impact when falling out of bed.

The way I see it there are actually two awakened zoan fruit forms. The failed forms which is the ones we see in impale down in which the animal side takes over and a true awakening in what we see with Lucci where the human side takes over. Chopper managed to gain control of the failed awaken form as he is an animal first and foremost but he has yet to show a true awakening with the halo/ring around his shoulders in which he is taken over by the human side of his fruit.

Considering all we know about how Oda does things now and considering what Chopper does and what his fruit looks like, we can summarize the situation pretty neatly:

Since Luffy’s fruit reveal, I’ve begun to think that all Devil Fruits are driven somewhat by imagination, rather than physicality. That the user is essentially pushing their internal logic to determine the limits of the fruits

I noticed when people use the fruit in pure animal form, they still have human traits, like how the hawk guy is a human sized hawk. Maybe Choppers fur is inherited to the human fruit.

One of my favorite one of my favorite Fan Theories, is the idea that since ‘human’ can apply to races like the Long-Leg Tribe, and the Long-Arm Tribe, and even more beyond that, that Chopper’s Hito-Hito No Mi can exemplify those humanistic traits, with examples like Arm Point and Jump Point, focusing on the arms and legs.

Chopper's fruit also seems to have had a major effect on one other aspect of him, his aging. Chopper was already 15 when we first met him, which, for a reindeer, would actually be extremely old. And, by now, he's probably nearly nineteen, which is older than ANY reindeer ever gets. And yet he is, if anything younger physically than even a human, would be at his age. Also he still has the iron repair band on his antler even though, as a reindeer, he should have shed and re-greown his antlers many, many times since he broke it (unless he now just adds one for cosmetic reasons). I have a nagging suspicion that Chopper is going to live to an age far beyond what even a normal human will (even without factoring in that, as a doctor, he has a pretty good idea of how to keep himself healthy.)

I kinda like the theory that he has the Human Human Fruit: Model (Forest God Name). I like this because while he did initially require the special drugs (note that Chopper learned

Chopper also has a hidden devil fruit. I believe we will learn of his zoan model later on the series. He is literally the only zoan in one piece without a model, so it must be kept hidden.

Back when we first learned that “a certain devil fruit in use on Wano” existed under a false identity, and we had yet to learn that it was Luffy’s, I had the idea that that devil fruit was the Hito Hito no mi, and instead of being a human Zoan, it was actually an

I think zoans can awaken in 2 different forms. if their body or mind or whatever is not ready, they get overwhelmed and end up like monster point or the jailbeasts, but if you truly master your devilfruit, you get something like the cp0 guys. basically, the fruit might take over the eater if not done properly. that might also explain why there arn't any awakened among kaido. theym ight've just feared ending up somewhat mindless beasts.

The concept of a Human-Human fruit is so philosophically complex that I'm not surprised that Chopper's powers are this convoluted. Humans are a really diverse animal, so maybe Chopper has so many forms with nebulous boundaries in between because "Human" in the context of a devil fruit is not limited to just a basic form-factor.
