Pharaoh (King) Akhenaten was the sole Egyptian ruler who supported monotheism. His queen, Nefertiti, was also famous for supporting it as well.

Who is the Egyptian pharaoh responsible for transformation from polytheism to monotheism?

That would be AKHENATEN, or Amenophis IV, Egyptian king of the 18th dynasty, from around 1300 BC. He actually only tried to transform the Egyptian pantheon into a form of monotheism but he did not really succeed. This monotheism that he supported, created around the Sun God Aton, did not really work out for the rest of the Egyptians and it remained just a form of private cult for the king's family and court. This pharaoh is in fact more famous for having been married to Nefertiti, that glamorous Egyptian superstar whose famous bust everyone has a jolly good time watching in the Berlin museum where it's at. And he was also the father of that other Egyptian superstar, kid-pharaoh Tutankhamun, who died tragically in his prime from an uncertain, but violent cause, and was entombed with all the treasures he never worked to acquire in the Valley of Kings.
