ShuppetCelestial Storm #63 Pokémon Card

Shuppet is a Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III of the Pokémon universe. Known as the Puppet Pokémon, it often appears as a small, gray, doll-like creature with a pointed head and large, expressive eyes. According to Pokédex lore, Shuppet is drawn to vengeful emotions and dark feelings, often found lurking under the eaves of houses where resentful people live, feeding on these negative energies. Its natural habitat is typically urban or suburban areas, particularly at night. Shuppet evolves into Banette when it reaches level 37. In the games, Shuppet often appears in haunted locations or cemeteries, and its abilities often revolve around status conditions and draining HP. In the anime, Shuppet has been depicted as mischievous but not inherently malicious, sometimes causing trouble for trainers with its ghostly antics. Its cultural significance lies in its depiction of a spirit bound to human emotions, a common trope in folklore. Shuppet’s design, resembling a discarded puppet, evokes a sense of melancholy and mystery, making it a memorable Pokémon for many fans. Its type matchups mean it is strong against Psychic and Ghost types, but weak against other Ghost and Dark types.
