Pokédex Entries¶

Platinum Diamond Pearl Heartgold Soulsilver

The leer that floats in darkness belongs to a GENGAR delighting in casting curses on people.

It hides in shadows. It is said that if GENGAR is hiding, it cools the area by nearly 10 degrees F.

Lurking in the shadowy corners of rooms, it awaits chances to steal its prey’s life force.

It steals heat from its surroundings. If you feel a sudden chill, it is certain that a GENGAR appeared.

To steal the life of its target, it slips into the prey’s shadow and silently waits for an opportunity.
