Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Reveal New Pokemon, Gimmighoul

Let’s welcome a brand new Pokemon, Gimmighoul, just before the launch of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The new ghost-type Pokemon hides in treasure chests around the Paldea region. Because the chests are so heavy, it’s unable to move very quickly.

Typically, Gimmighoul appears inside a treasure chest and it is also able to be assumed as a “roaming form”. In this form, Gimmighoul carries a single coin on its back, and it’s so quick that no trainer in Paldea has ever been able to catch one.
