Unlike its Unovan counterpart, Galarian Yamask carries a broken clay tablet that is said to be imbued with a vengeful spirit. This unique origin story ties into its evolution into Runerigus, which is formed when Galarian Yamask is damaged by at least 49 HP and then walks under the stone arch in the Dusty Bowl. Its diet and behavior are largely tied to its spectral nature and its connection to ancient ruins, often found haunting historical sites. In the games, it's a relatively uncommon encounter, adding to its mystique. Its typing provides interesting defensive and offensive matchups, being immune to Normal and Fighting moves, and resistant to Poison, Bug, and Rock, while being weak to Ghost, Dark, Water, Grass, and Ice. Galarian Yamask's unique appearance and lore make it a fan favorite, representing the rich history and supernatural elements within the Pokémon world.
