363/365: POKEDDEXY DAY 29: Scariest Pokémon

SoulSilver

To steal the life of its target, it slips into the prey’s shadow and silently waits for an opportunity.

X

It hides in shadows. It is said that if Gengar is hiding, it cools the area by nearly 10 degrees Fahrenheit.

Y

Hiding in people’s shadows at night, it absorbs their heat. The chill it causes makes the victims shake.

FireRed:

It is said to emerge from darkness to steal the lives of those who become lost in mountains. 

Basically ghost pokémon will always be technically contenders for the “scariest” pokémon. But Gengar just takes the cake sometimes.
