Villagers converting to witches is an example of mob conversion.

Mob conversion is a game mechanic where under specific circumstances certain Minecraft:mobs can convert to mobs of a different type, or to a different variant of the same mob.

List of mob conversions

Template:EntityLink The other variant (red or brown) Minecraft:Lightning strike
Template:EntityLink One of their skins Changing their skins in their menu
Template:EntityLink The sheared variant Minecraft:Shearing Although canonically a simple change of equipment, this "conversion" is included here because sheared and unsheared snow golems are considered different variants by the game.<ref group="note">See also Template:Bug</ref>
Template:EntityLink A different color of sheep Dyeing or an evoker's conversion spell
A rainbow sheep, or a fixed-color sheep Naming the sheep "jeb_", or renaming "jeb_" to something else, respectively
