As Mega Gengar, a portion of its body sinks into the ground. The lower portions turn a more reddish purple, and a third eye appears on its forehead. This new unblinking eye is oval and yellow and allows it to see into other dimensions.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Gengar</ref> The spikes on Mega Gengar's back are more numerous and pointed. Additionally, spikes appear on its hands and tail. Its ears are now considerably longer and project backward.

Gengar first appeared in the opening of the first episode, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', where it and a {{p|Nidorino}} battled in a Colosseum on TV.

A group of Gengar, along with a group of Haunter, was creating illusions within a forest in ''[[EP121|Illusion Confusion!]]''.

*Gengar could  be seen as a counterpart to [[Alakazam]]. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, which can only be achieved by trading the second stage, both are capable of Mega Evolution, Gengar is weak against Psychic-type moves and Alakazam weak against Ghost-type moves, this being weak and at the same time strong against each other. They are the same size, and get smaller upon Mega Evolution, sharing a base friendship is the same at 70. In the anime episode ''[[The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]'', a Gengar and an Alakazam are put against each other. Since Generation VI, they have a base stat total of 500, and are both weak to Dark-type moves.
