• Ghost Attacker:HexShadow Ball

The cup of (Sinis)tea turns into a full-blown teapot… Polteageist! 🫖

And to everyone’s surprise, Polteageist has a 248 ATK stat! Oh my! 😳

But to no one’s surprise, it’s a glass cannon as well. 😛

That said, Hex + Shadow Ball is meta and makes Polteageist a very usable Ghost-type attacker! 👻

⚔️ Raids

There’s a legion of Ghost-type Pokémon better than Polteageist in DPS and TDO. That said, you can still use this Pokémon in Raids as long as you dodge well. 💨 Not a premier pick, but capable for sure! 💪

🛡️ Gyms

A pretty fragile Pokémon, so not ideal for Gym defense. ❌

🔵 Great League

Polteageist has no niche in the Great League, suffering from low bulk and lacking a reliable way to bait shields. 📉

🟡 Ultra League

Ghost-types are highly common in the Ultra League, and most of them are far superior to Polteageist in every possible way. Avoid using it if you want to secure wins. 😅

🟣 Master League

Absolutely not! 🚧
