Mutable Explorer
Creature — Shapeshifter
Changeling (This card is every creature type.)
When this creature enters, create a tapped Mutavault token. (It's a land with " tap : Add colorless mana " and " 1 generic mana : This token becomes a 2/2 creature with all creature types until end of turn. It's still a land.")

If an effect causes a creature with changeling to lose all abilities, it will remain all creature types, even though it will no longer have changeling. This is because changeling applies before the effect that removes it.

Changeling is a characteristic-defining ability. It functions in all zones, not only while a card that has it is on the battlefield.

The subtype Shapeshifter that appears on the type line is mostly there to reinforce the flavor. A creature card with changeling is just as much a Kithkin, a Goblin, a Merfolk, and a Brushwagg as it is a Shapeshifter.
