|desc={{p|Gengar}} is Agatha's only known Pokémon. It was seen battling {{OBP|Red|Origins}}'s {{p|Dodrio}}, eventually losing off-screen.}}

|desc={{p|Gastly}} is part of Agatha's Ghost army. They were used to attack the Kanto cities. Agatha also has her own Gastly outside of the army. The Gastly first appears as a dark fog lifting up Super Nerd Miles when he'd been beaten. [[Blue's Charizard]] was able to defeat Gastly by attacking out of nowhere, after which the boy deduces that the same Elite Four member whom he'd fought before was behind the scenes. In said battle, [[Blue's Scyther]] was used to {{m|Slash}} Gastly into pieces.

{{TrainerPoké

|desc=Agatha stole many {{p|Haunter}}, both wild and [[Camper (Trainer class)#Haunter|trainer-owned]], and used them to attack the cities of [[Kanto]].

{{TrainerPoké

|desc={{p|Golbat}} was another Pokémon sent out to battle against Koga and Blue.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

Agatha appears in ''[[PM035|Panic on the Luxury Liner?!]]'' of Pokémon Pocket Monsters. She has the ability to transform into a {{p|Golbat}}.

==Trivia==

* Though she claims to specialize in the Ghost type, the common type shared by all her Pokémon in the main series games (except {{p|Misdreavus}}) is {{t|Poison}}. This is most likely because the only Ghost-type Pokémon in [[Generation I]] were in the {{p|Gastly}} line.  

* In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, [[Shauntal]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four mentions Agatha's resemblance to [[Bertha]] of the [[Sinnoh]] Elite Four as a quote from her novel during the player's post-National Pokédex challenge.
