In ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'', Gengar was the second Pokémon Ash used in his Masters Eight Tournament match against Leon. It first faced against {{p|Inteleon}}, taking a few blows from its Counter Shield strategy with Aqua Jet before Gigantamaxing. Gengar then proved to be a tough opponent in its Gigantamax form and was able to successfully defeat the Secret Agent Pokémon, despite taking heavy hits in the process from its {{m|Snipe Shot}} and {{m|Dark Pulse}}, which resulted in Gengar losing its Gigantamax status earlier than expected. Next it battled against {{p|Mr. Rime}}, who managed to {{status|freeze}} Gengar and defeat it soon afterwards with a super effective [[terrain]]-boosted {{m|Expanding Force}}, although not without first getting its {{m|Freeze-Dry}} disabled by {{a|Cursed Body}}, much to Leon's surprise. In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Gengar appeared as a vision to Pikachu during his battle against Leon's {{p|Charizard}}. After Ash had won the battle, Gengar joined him and the rest of his team for the awards ceremony.

Ash left Gengar, along with the rest of his ''Journeys'' team, at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] sometime prior to [[JN137]], as he decided he wanted to start rotating his team for his new journey.

In [[JN144]], Gengar was shown to have rejoined Ash's team. During the episode, it was sent out to help search for a Pokémon that kept stealing heart-shaped objects from people's homes. It was quickly discovered to be a {{p|Banette}}, which escaped their multiple attempts to stop it. The next day, they were able to track it down and give it Misty's heart-shaped hairpiece, which resembled the one it had worn when it was still a {{pkmn|doll|Substitute doll}}. They then went out looking for its owner, but were unable to find her by the end of the day. Banette flew off, and Gengar, frustrated, chased after it. It gave the Marionette Pokémon words of encouragement before it left for the next town to continue its search. Upon returning to Ash, it learned they had found its owner, [[Nurse Joy]], and Gengar, Ash, and Dragonite chased after Banette in order to bring it back. Finally together again, Banette and Nurse Joy shared a heartfelt reunion.
