Meet Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s newest Pokémon Gimmighoul
The Pokémon Company has introduced us to the Coin Chest Pokémon Gimmighoul.
This ghost-type Pokémon hides inside sturdy treasure chests and can control people and Pokémon to force them to collect coins for it.
“Because it often hides in warehouses, shop corners, and other places people and Pokémon don’t frequent, it tends to keep persistent control of those it does manage to encounter,” the Pokemon’s description adds.
Gimmighoul also has a Roaming Form that doesn’t hide inside treasure chests and carries a single coin on its back. Roaming Form Gimmighoul runs away as soon as a person approaches, which makes it difficult to catch.
Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet launch on November 18th for Nintendo Switch.
