i was testing and discovered that some creature forms of those spells are dispellable and some are not.

"Polymorph Self"

undispellable:
spider
jelly
hound
rat

dispellable:
giant
ogre



"Shapechange"

undispellable:
mind flayer
golem
basilisk

dispellable:
marilith
stalker

is this normal? (SCS installed)

    since a lot of people use SCS i will provide further info. so, i continiued testing and it turns out this is SCS bug. all ok in unmodded game. also, not only some of those forms are dispellable, but they are dispellable by much lower caster level, specifically lvl 7 inquisitor can dispel lvl 31 sorcerer with 100% success rate. i let sorcerer buff himself with various spells and polymorph and when inquisitor cast dispel, only polymorph got removed, all other buffs stayed in place. also, high level casters are unable to dispel those "undispellable" forms.
