Ghost type Pokemon: list of the best of the group

Whether you play Pokemon Go, or any other Pokemon video game on consoles, you know that there are different types, each with their advantages and disadvantages. Focusing on ghost type pokemon, do you know which ones are the best?

Take a look at the list of these Pokémon so that, when you go out hunting, you can get one of them to tip the balance in your favor in case of battles. Shall we start?

Strengths and weaknesses of a ghost type pokemon

In case you don't know, a ghost type pokemon is not an invincible creature. Like everyone else, you have a series of strengths and weaknesses. To give you an idea, they are strong against psychics and ghosts; but weak against ghosts and sinisters.

Sableye

It is one of the shadow type pokemon that does not appear much, but the truth is that its attacks are powerful enough to be able to fight against other players and emerge victorious. Although he uses dirty play a little, it is worth having him on the team because of the different types of attacks and movements he has, as well as ability to recover and defend.

To this you also have to add the evolution it has, which is much more powerful and will help you solve a multitude of combats.

gengar

Not only in the most basic version, with its tongue attacks and shadow bag, but when it evolves, you can find one of the strongest shadow type pokemon there is.

In fact, of all the ghost types, this one is perhaps one of everyone's favorites (also because it was one of the first to appear in the series). It is true that his appearance can be intimidating, but the truth is that afterward he is very faithful to his coach.

It has a good combination of attacks, very complete and that will allow you to establish different game strategies.

Misdreavus

This ghost type Pokémon is one that may be more difficult for you to find. And is not for less. Despite At first it is not very good, with its evolution you will be able to reach attacks like Mortal Song or Evil Eye, which are quite useful.

Once its form evolves, you will be able to see that its appearance changes and it will become much stronger.

Mimikyu

Mimikyu reminds us a lot of Pikachu, although a ghostly version, of course. If you can capture him, don't think about it for a second because he is one of the most balanced and strongest pokemon in that universe.

Of course, we must warn you that they changed it a little and weakened it (perhaps because they realized that he could against other players very easily). What did you do? Well, he would have damage and thus avoid using his attacks several times.

dragapult

Among the dragon type pokemon, this one is specifically based on the ghost type and is quite good if you know how to use it at the right time. His best attack is glass cannon, which can greatly weaken his opponent (to the point that he ends up fainting).

aegislash

In this case we must warn you because Aegislash is not really a pure ghost type Pokémon, but rather it has a mixture of ghost and steel. Now, despite that, It does not have good resistance, but why is it good then? Due to its immunities and resistance to bug types.

Therefore, you can use it both to defend and attack. It maintains a good balance in that sense.

Corsola de Galar

Another ghost type pokemon that you can encounter (and fight against) is this one, a creature that is not easy to beat due to its high resistance. What's more, you can carry an ore with you and make its defense (normal and special) increase to levels that are impossible to counter.

We already told you that It's not easy to beat so if you capture it you will have a good advantage on your team.

Cofragrigus

We recommend Cofragrigus because of its high defense (ideal if you are not very strong and you have no attack pokemon left). It is immune to normal attacks and fights, but beware of its weaknesses.

Still, It will stand up to attacks without any problem because they will barely touch it.

Giratina

This is one of the most appreciated Pokémon, and it is no wonder. Although we must warn you that It will catch your attention due to its design.. His stats are quite good, with a great balance in attack and defense, and a much higher HP than other ghost types.

Hoopa

If you have Hoopa on your team you will know why we recommend him here. And the special attack is one of the best. If you add to that the balance it has and the magician skill (which can steal objects from the rival), it will delight many.

Of course, not everything is good. Despite the great attack, Hoopa is quite slow and also does not have a good defense, so against enemies that attack hard, he can be overwhelmed.

Chandelure

We could say that it has the appearance of a candelabra. And it is no wonder, considering that it has fire-type and ghost-type abilities. We recommend it because of the special attack, which is very much at the level of the legendaries.

If that's not enough, It has immunity to normal and fighting types, and resists fire, ice, fairy, poison, plant, bug and steel. What can't you do? Water, sinister, rock, earth and ghost.

houndstones

We end up with one that will catch your attention due to its design (and also because it may remind you of another cartoon character). It stands out for the balance it has both in attack and defense.

As for skills, it has Sand Haste (to go faster) or Fluffy, where the damage is reduced by half (although the problem here is that if the Pokémon it fights is fire type it can cause double damage) .

On the other hand, be careful not to confront him with a ghostly and sinister type.

There are many ghost type Pokemon. And it's possible that not all of them jump in video games, but at least it wouldn't hurt to get some of the usual ones to carry on your team and fight with him with a certain advantage. Do you recommend any more?
