Get ready to meet Gengar, the sick Ghost and Poison-typed Pokémon! Gengar is a common Pokémon to see in the RB metagame. There were no known abilities or equippable items back in the Red/Blue Pokémon games. It is weak to Grass, Ice, and Psychic-typed attacks. Explore the movesets of Gengar below to understand its battle capabilities.
Gengar is a decent Special Sweeper in single battles. It was designed to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Generation one was a completely different game from what it is now. Don't forget back before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Thunderbolt is a special 95-base power Electric-type move (10% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Psychic is a special 90-base power Psychic-type move (33% chance to lower the target's special by 1 stage). ♦ Mega Drain is a special 40-base power Grass-type move (Gengar recovers 50% of the damage dealt). ♦ Toxic is a status move (badly poisons the target).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
