Polteageist is a Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII, evolving from Sinistea. It is known as the Black Tea Pokémon, characterized by its ghostly essence inhabiting an antique teapot. Polteageist primarily resides in homes and antique shops, often blending in with other teaware. Its diet, if it can be called such, consists of absorbing the life force or emotions of those who handle it, though it is not inherently malicious. A unique aspect of Polteageist's lore is that many Polteageist are forgeries, having inhabited a regular teapot rather than an authentic, antique one. True Polteageist, which inhabit rare, authentic teapots, are highly prized and sought after. In the games, Polteageist is a special attacker with decent speed, capable of learning a variety of Ghost and Psychic-type moves. Its unique ability, Weak Armor, lowers its defense but boosts its speed when hit by a physical attack. In the anime, Polteageist often appears as a mischievous but generally harmless spirit, sometimes causing minor disruptions with its spectral abilities. Its design draws heavily from British tea culture, reflecting the Galar region's inspiration from the United Kingdom.
