Possesses potential victims' shadows in an effort to steal away the victims' lives. If your shadow begins to laugh, you must take hold of a protective charm posthaste!
Even your home isn’t safe. Gengar will lurk in whatever dark corner of a room it can find and wait for its chance to catch its prey.
You can hear tales told all over the world about how Gengar will pay a visit to children who are naughty.
It apparently wishes for a traveling companion. Since it was once human itself, it tries to create one by taking the lives of other humans.
Should you feel yourself attacked by a sudden chill, it is evidence of an approaching Gengar. There is no escaping it. Give up.
Hiding in people’s shadows at night, it absorbs their heat. The chill it causes makes the victims shake.
