Gengar is very mischievous, and at times, malicious. It enjoys playing practical jokes and casting curses, such as pretending to be one's shadow, then behaving erratically. When the quarry notices, the Gengar takes delight in its victim's terror. However, Gengar has been known to be loyal to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who treats it well. Being the result of an evolution via [[Trade|trading]], Gengar is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}} and dark places where shadows form. It is especially fond of urban areas such as cities and back alleys, but only during the night. | Gengar is very mischievous, and at times, malicious.
