Gengar is Agatha's main Pokémon. It first appeared in ''[[PS050|Lapras Lazily]]'', ''[[PS051|Electro Magneton]]'', and ''[[PS052|Growing out of Gengar]]'', where Agatha sent it out against {{adv|Blue}} and {{tc|Camper|Ethan}}, who had arrived at the abandoned [[Power Plant]] where she was hiding in search of Ethan's lost {{p|Haunter}}. Even though its initial {{m|Night Shade}} was blocked by [[Blue's Golduck]]'s {{m|Hydro Pump}}, it then used {{m|Hypnosis}} to put Blue to {{status|sleep}} and trap him in a coffin of mist, where he was then tortured by Gengar's {{m|Dream Eater}} and {{m|Confuse Ray}}. However, Blue was able to break free from Agatha's spell, and use Golduck and his [[Pokédex]] to tell Ethan to distract Gengar, so that the Dream Eater would weaken, allowing him to escape from it with his {{TP|Blue|Scyther}}. Although Agatha claimed that his Scyther wouldn't be able to hurt her formless {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, Blue was able to recall the lessons he had learned from [[Chuck|his teacher]], which allowed Scyther to defeat Gengar with a {{m|Slash}} attack.

Gengar is Agatha's main Pokémon. It first appeared in ''[[PS050|Lapras Lazily]]'', ''[[PS051|Electro Magneton]]'', and ''[[PS052|Growing out of Gengar]]'', where Agatha sent it out against {{adv|Blue}} and {{tc|Camper|Evan}}, who had arrived at [[Kanto Power Plant|the abandoned Power Plant]] where she was hiding in search of Ethan's lost {{p|Haunter}}. Even though its initial {{m|Night Shade}} was blocked by [[Blue's Golduck]]'s {{m|Hydro Pump}}, it then used {{m|Hypnosis}} to put Blue to {{status|sleep}} and trap him in a coffin of mist, where he was then tortured by Gengar's {{m|Dream Eater}} and {{m|Confuse Ray}}. However, Blue was able to break free from Agatha's spell, and use Golduck and his [[Pokédex]] to tell Ethan to distract Gengar, so that the Dream Eater would weaken, allowing him to escape from it with his {{TP|Blue|Scyther}}. Although Agatha claimed that his Scyther wouldn't be able to hurt her formless {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, Blue was able to recall the lessons he had learned from [[Chuck|his teacher]], which allowed Scyther to defeat Gengar with a {{m|Slash}} attack.


Agatha also used her Gengar during the battle against Blue and [[Koga]] at the [[Cerise Island]], where it managed to {{status|paralysis|paralyze}} Blue with {{m|Lick}}, making him unable to see anything. Although Blue's paralysis was later cured by Koga's {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Parlyz Heal}} and they were able to defeat Agatha's {{p|Arbok}} and seemingly knock out Agatha as well, she secretly sent her Gengar to follow them, hiding in their shadows and slowly draining their life energy. As there was no Trainer to give command to it, Blue wondered why Gengar kept attacking them. Eventually he figured out, that it was actually reacting to even the slightest of sounds they made, attacking whatever caused the sound. Koga figured out a trick how to defeat Gengar, and, by using the smoke of his {{p|Koffing}}, sent a message of his idea to Blue: since his Arbok's tail had earlier been cut off while battling against Agatha's Arbok, Koga used a secret ninja trick to make his Arbok's severed off tail move, causing Gengar to react the sound and come out of the shadows, giving Blue the chance to attack. The plan worked, allowing [[Blue's Porygon]] to defeat Gengar with a {{m|Psybeam}}. Afterwards, Blue used [[Koga's Golbat]]'s Confuse Ray to light up the surroundings, cutting the shadows to a minimum and preventing Gengar from escaping unnoticed.

History

Agatha and her Gengar

Gengar is Agatha's main Pokémon. It first appeared in Lapras Lazily, Electro Magneton, and Growing out of Gengar, where Agatha sent it out against Blue and Evan, who had arrived at the abandoned Power Plant where she was hiding in search of Ethan's lost Haunter. Even though its initial Night Shade was blocked by Blue's Golduck's Hydro Pump, it then used Hypnosis to put Blue to sleep and trap him in a coffin of mist, where he was then tortured by Gengar's Dream Eater and Confuse Ray. However, Blue was able to break free from Agatha's spell, and use Golduck and his Pokédex to tell Ethan to distract Gengar, so that the Dream Eater would weaken, allowing him to escape from it with his Scyther. Although Agatha claimed that his Scyther wouldn't be able to hurt her formless Ghost-type Pokémon, Blue was able to recall the lessons he had learned from his teacher, which allowed Scyther to defeat Gengar with a Slash attack.

Agatha also used her Gengar during the battle against Blue and Koga at the Cerise Island, where it managed to paralyze Blue with Lick, making him unable to see anything. Although Blue's paralysis was later cured by Koga's Parlyz Heal and they were able to defeat Agatha's Arbok and seemingly knock out Agatha as well, she secretly sent her Gengar to follow them, hiding in their shadows and slowly draining their life energy. As there was no Trainer to give command to it, Blue wondered why Gengar kept attacking them. Eventually he figured out, that it was actually reacting to even the slightest of sounds they made, attacking whatever caused the sound. Koga figured out a trick how to defeat Gengar, and, by using the smoke of his Koffing, sent a message of his idea to Blue: since his Arbok's tail had earlier been cut off while battling against Agatha's Arbok, Koga used a secret ninja trick to make his Arbok's severed off tail move, causing Gengar to react the sound and come out of the shadows, giving Blue the chance to attack. The plan worked, allowing Blue's Porygon to defeat Gengar with a Psybeam. Afterwards, Blue used Koga's Golbat's Confuse Ray to light up the surroundings, cutting the shadows to a minimum and preventing Gengar from escaping unnoticed.

Agatha also has multiple other Gengar in her army of Ghost Pokémon, which she sent to attack Cerulean City.

Personality and characteristics

As for the most of its species, Gengar is mischievous, and likes to slowly serve the death for its victims by slowly draining away their powers.

Agatha's Gengar's only anime appearance was in The Scheme Team, where she used it in a battle against Ash and Pikachu at the Viridian Gym, which Agatha was temporarily taking care of. At first Ash told to use Pikachu Quick Attack, utterly forgetting that Normal-type moves don't affect Ghost-type Pokémon. The Shadow Pokémon was also able to dodge Pikachu's Thunderbolt by turning into a shadow and sliding out of the way of the attack. Gengar then used Shadow Ball, which Pikachu dodged before hitting Gengar with Iron Tail. Gengar then attacked with another Shadow Ball, which hit Pikachu head on. The Mouse Pokémon, however, quickly recovered from the hit, and went in for another Iron Tail. But before the attack could hit, Agatha had Gengar use Double Team, creating multiple Gengar clones.
