GastlyPaldean Fates #55 Pokémon Card

Gastly is the iconic Gas Pokémon, a Ghost/Poison-type from the very first generation of Pokémon, Kanto. Known for its ethereal, gaseous body and mischievous grin, Gastly is the first stage in a beloved evolutionary line, evolving into Haunter and then the formidable Gengar. In the Pokémon world, Gastly are often found lurking in abandoned buildings, dark caves, and graveyards, particularly at night. Their diet consists not of food in the traditional sense, but of the life force and fear of living beings, which they absorb. Gastly are portrayed as playful but potentially dangerous, capable of putting opponents to sleep with their gas or causing illusions. Their unique typing gives them resistances to Grass, Poison, Bug, and Fairy, while being weak to Ground, Psychic, Ghost, and Dark. Gastly and its evolutions have been mainstays in games and anime since their introduction, representing the spooky and mysterious side of the Pokémon universe, and have left a significant cultural imprint as one of the original and most recognizable Ghost Pokémon.
