Sinistea (Japanese: ヤバチャ Yabacha) is a Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.
It evolves into Polteageist when exposed to a Cracked Pot or a Chipped Pot. The item required depends on its form.
- The Phony Form[1][2] (if it lacks a mark of authenticity) requires a Cracked Pot to evolve.
- The Antique Form[1][3] (if it has a mark of authenticity) requires a Chipped Pot to evolve.
Biology
Sinistea are said to be created when a lonely spirit possesses a cold, leftover cup of tea. The teacup that Sinistea lives in is a famous piece of antique tableware; seafoam green in color with a lacy pattern that resembles a face and gold rims. However, there are many forgeries in circulation. Antique Form Sinistea has a mark of authenticity on the bottom of the cup, whereas Phony Form Sinistea lacks it. This mark appears as a light grey emblem on the bottom inside rim of the cup.
The swirl pattern on Sinistea's purple body serves as a weakness. Should a Sinistea get stirred, the swirl will disappear and cause it to get dizzy. Sinistea can absorb the life-force of anyone who drinks it. While it can wait patiently, most of Sinistea's opportunities end up being short, as it tastes so bad that it is spat out immediately.
