==Biology==
==Biology==
Gourgeist is a bipedal, pumpkin Pokémon. Its body is a black pumpkin, with two short stubby feet. There is a face carved into this pumpkin, having triangular eyes and a half-circle mouth, completed with a spike protruding from the top of the shape. Above this pumpkin is the head, being tall, slender and and orange in color. At the top of the head is the face, which has yellow eyes, and a small mouth, no nose present. The mouth has two sharp fangs, with an absence of other visible teeth. It is completed with the hair, which down the sides develops limbs, which are used to catch its prey. The hair contains bangs which usually cover one eye. The top of its hair contains a crescent shape, which is peach-colored on the outside, and black on the inside. They come in many sizes, the smallest being no more than 2'04" or 0.7m, while the largest are 5'07", or 1.7m.
Gourgeist is a ghostly gourd-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that varies dramatically in size. Its body is a dark brown pumpkin with a glowing, yellow-orange face carved into the front and a pair of nubby legs. The face consists of two triangular eyes and a grinning mouth; on top of the mouth is a small, triangular cutout for a nose. Poking out of the top of the pumpkin is its slender brown-orange head, which has bright yellow eyes and a small mouth but no visible nose. Gourgeist has long, light pink hair with arm-like tendrils framing its face and bangs that usually cover one eye. On top of its head is a crescent-shaped tuft that is brown on top; this tuft resembles a pumpkin's stem. In the [[anime]], Gourgeist has shown the ability to retract its upper body into the pumpkin, giving it the appearance of a traditional {{wp|jack-o'-lantern}}.
 
On the night of a new moon, Gourgeist wanders town streets while singing an eerie song. Those who hear its song will be cursed. It is also known to sing joyfully while observing prey it has entangled in its arms.
 
Gourgeist and its pre-evolved form {{p|Pumpkaboo}} are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}.

===Form data===
Gourgeist have four different forms, each named after their respective size: Small Size, Average Size, Large Size, and Super Size.
 
Its size is maintained through [[evolution]] from {{p|Pumpkaboo}} and cannot be changed. Gourgeist typically cannot be found in the {{pkmn2|wild}}, and its different forms can usually only be obtained by evolving Pumpkaboo, whose larger sizes are rarer to encounter. However, in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Average Size Gourgeist can be found in the wild, and Gourgeist can also be encountered in [[Dynamax Adventure]]s.<!--what sizes appear in Dynamax Adventures?-->
 
Super Size Gourgeist have different, lower-pitched [[Cry|cries]] than the other forms, and were also the only Pokémon to have the XXL [[Size and weight variation#Pokémon GO|size designation]] in {{g|GO}} prior to the addition of XXL and XXS sizes for all species. The different sizes of Gourgeist do not use different menu sprites, except in {{g|HOME}}.
 
Previously, only Average Size and Super Size Gourgeist could have their [[Hidden Ability]] {{a|Insomnia}}. Average Size can be obtained with its Hidden Ability from the [[Friend Safari]], and Super Size could be obtained with its Hidden Ability from {{pkmn2|event}}s. Since Version 1.2.0 of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, all sizes can be obtained with their Hidden Abilities via [[Ability Patch]]es.
 
Each form has different [[base stats]]. With each increase in size, its base {{stat|HP}} stat increases by 10 points and its base {{stat|Attack}} stat increases by 5 points while its base {{stat|Speed}} stat decreases by 15 points. Consequently, its base stat total does not vary with size.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Gourgeist (TCG)}}
==Trivia==
==Trivia==
===Origin===
Gourgeist appears to be based on {{wp|Calabash|bottle gourd}}s, {{wp|pumpkin}}s, and modern {{wp|jack-o'-lantern}}s, decorations made out of carved pumpkins for {{wp|Halloween}}. Its multiple sizes may be a reference to the tradition of trying to grow the largest pumpkin for Halloween. Its upper body may also be based on the {{wp|candle}}s within jack-o'-lanterns themselves, with the curl being its wick and its hair-like extensions its dripping wax. It could also be viewed as a mere extension of the shape and the curl on top being its stem. The lower body's different color might also reference the tradition of decorating gourds with paint. Gourgeist's behavior of knocking on people's front doors before whisking them away, as described by its Pokédex entry in {{g|Shield}}, may reference the Halloween tradition of going door-to-door for {{wp|trick-or-treating}}.


===Origin===
Gourgeist also has potential connections with the famous Japanese story, ''{{wp|Yotsuya Kaidan}}'', in which a woman transforms into a paper lantern {{wp|yōkai}} with long hair.
Gourgeist appears to be based on both {{wp|gourd}} and modern pumpkin {{wp|Jack-o'-lantern}}s. Its multiple sizes may possibly be a reference to the variety of sizes pumpkins and gourds come in. Its upper body is based on the {{wp|candle}}s within Jack-o'-lanterns themselves, with the curl being its wick and its hair-like extensions its dripping wax.
