A spooky new Pokémon has been revealed for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
The Pokémon Company International and Nintendo this week unveiled the newly discovered Pokémon Poltchageist for Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet’s The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask DLC, launching exclusively on the Nintendo Switch family of systems on September 13, 2023.
Poltchageist has a swirl pattern not unlike Sinistea’s—but unlike Sinistea, its swirl is not a weakness. After a target is sprinkled with some of Poltchageist’s powdery body or eats food dusted with it, Poltchageist drains their life-force and absorbs it as energy.
