This Gengar is something of a bully, although he does have a slight soft side. He and his partners Ekans and Medicham go around taking missions and being rude to other teams. The second one ended in a draw and the last ended in failure, likely due to the Pokémon being in the hands of an Elite Four member.Ī talking Gengar is the leader of "Team Meanies" in the half-hour animated special, "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out Of The Gate!". Ash has battled against all three and prevailed over the first one. Gengar has also been used in battle by Drake, the defending champion of the Orange League, by Morty, the Gym Leader of Ecruteak City, and by Agatha, member of the Elite Four and temporary Gym Leader of Viridian City. It battled against a giant Alakazam (another of the protectors) until a gargantuan Jigglypuff intervened and put both to sleep. A more hostile and much larger Gengar (known as The Shadow of the Dark Device) appeared in episode #74 (The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémonpolis) as one of the city's mythical protectors. This Gengar was not nearly as malicious as its Pokedex entry states, only pulling harmless pranks rather than cruel ones. It appeared in episode #23 (The Tower of Terror), which it haunted along with its pre-evolved forms Gastly and Haunter, playing pranks on visitors. This was done to mimic the opening sequence of Red Version. Gengar was first seen in the anime battling a Nidorino at the beginning of the first episode. In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, it appears alongside Medicham and Ekans in a rescue team, who all act as main antagonists to the player and regularly conspires against him or her. Gengar appears in other Pokémon video games, including Pokémon Pinball, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Blue Rescue Team and Red Rescue Team, and Pokémon Ranger. It only became obtainable in the wild in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl if the player has any one of the five Advanced Generation Pokémon games inserted in Slot 2 of the Nintendo DS and are in the correct area, and have the National Dex. In the first three generations, it is only obtainable by trading a Haunter, which causes it to evolve once it arrives into the other player's game cartridge. It evolves from Haunter, which evolves from Gastly. Gengar first appeared in Pokémon Red and Blue (outside of Japan), and is the final form in the Gastly evolutionary line.

Gengar especially loves to frighten people that way during the nights of a full moon. A common prank is to take the shape of one's shadow and run past him, giving him the impression that his shadow has come alive and overtaken him. Gengar acts like a heat sink while doing this, so that its malevolent presence can be given away by a feeling of cold and a shivering sensation.Īnother favorite pastime of Gengar is to mimic the shadows of people. It is said that in this way, it has the opportunity to absorb the "vital force"/life of its victims. Gengar tends to stalk its prospective prey, which includes human beings, and hide in their shadow. Fortunately, Gengar is a nocturnal Pokémon, so its attacks are limited to the hours of darkness. It inhabits remote mountainous locations and urban environments alike, being a dangerous Pokémon to encounter in either case.
Gengar often has a rather sinister personality, especially when in the wild.
