Gengar Pokédex Information
Gengar is a Ghost / Poison type Pokémon that first appeared in the games Pokémon Red and Blue which released in Japan on 12th September 1999. It evolves from Haunter and is the final evolution of Gastly.
Gengar is a purple, two-legged Pokémon that is defined as a shadow Pokémon possibly the shadow of Clefable. It may also be based on a spirit and its grin bears resemblance to the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland. It has a large round, purple body which is dominated by its red eyes and wide, grinning mouth. It has two short stubby legs, with black pads on its feet, two arms with three pointed fingers and a pointed tail. Its pointed ears stand up from its head and short tufts of fur can be seen between its ears. To steal the life of its target, it slips into the prey’s shadow and silently waits for an opportunity.
It evolves to Mega Gengar with Gengarite. In this form the lower part of its body and arms are red and it has no legs. Its upper arms are thin extending to large hands that have spiky projections extending backwards. Its tail has more spikes as does its head and back. In this form it has a third yellow eye. It can pass through other dimensions and appear anywhere. It caused a stir one time when it stuck just one leg out of a wall.
Gengar can evolve to Gigantamax form with the Dynamax Band. In this form it is much bigger and heavier. Its huge form is dominated by its enormous, open mouth, which resembles a long, red tunnel, and its long red tongue. Its two eyes are yellow and red clouds float above its head. Rumor has it that its gigantic mouth leads not into its body, filled with cursed energy, but instead directly to the afterlife.
