On the night of a new moon, Gourgeist roams around, singing. While this little squash Pokémon seems harmless, you shouldn’t let its appearance fool you.

It is spooky season, so we had to mention the pumpkinest Pokémon of them all: Gourgeist. But don’t be fooled by its funny nature: if Haunter ever managed to reach you, it would lick your soul out of your body, leaving you convulsing until you died. The Pokémon is known to be a prankster, scaring its victims and floating through walls. This may be its favorite place in Kanto: Haunter is fond of dark places, and more importantly, of death. In the Generation I games, we meet this ghost in the Pokémon Tower, a skyscraper holding a gigantic burial ground for Pokémon. Haunter is a staple when it comes to scary Pokémon. Lampent likes to hang around hospitals, which are like restaurants for it. This Pokémon can sense when someone is about to die and comes to steal their soul. Lampent is a lamp you would rather never see. It’s no wonder why Palossand is also known as the Beach Nightmare. It loves feeding on other Pokémon, capturing them in a sandy vortex, and crushing them to death. However, Palossand isn’t as cute as it looks. This lovely Pokémon looks like a sandcastle, with pebbles decorating the entrance and main tower. Palossandĭo you like building sandcastles at the beach in the summer? Well, summer is over, and your love for sand might disappear too once you meet Palossand. Some zippers are open, showing Mega Banette’s cursed purple body.īanette likes to bestow curses on everyone – including its trainer – by sticking pins to itself like a voodoo doll. The Pokémon gains extra zippers looking like scars all across its body and face. As if creepy possessed dolls were not enough, Banette can evolve into Mega Banette. Banette is an abandoned doll possessed by pure hatred.
