Summary

Brambleghast is a Grass/Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

Type: Grass/Ghost

Abilities:

  • Wind Rider: Increases the Pokémon's Attack when a Tailwind begins or if hit by a wind move, and it is immune to wind moves.
  • Infiltrator (Hidden Ability): Allows the Pokémon to bypass barriers such as Light Screen, Reflect, and Substitute.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Brambleghast resembles a tumbleweed, with a round, bush-like body made of intertwined, thorny branches.
  • It has glowing, yellow eyes that peek through gaps in its body, giving it a ghostly appearance.
  • Its body is mostly a dull brown with hints of green, resembling dried plant matter.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Brambleghast is often found in arid, open areas where wind is prevalent, such as deserts and plains.
  • It uses the wind to travel great distances, blending in with natural tumbleweeds.
  • Known for being elusive, it often avoids human contact and prefers solitude.

In Battle:

  • Brambleghast is a versatile battler with a strong focus on physical attacks.
  • Notable moves include Phantom Force, Seed Bomb, and Shadow Sneak, which take advantage of its Grass/Ghost typing.
  • It can be effective against Psychic, Water, and Ground types but is vulnerable to Fire, Flying, and Ice types.

Evolution:

  • Brambleghast evolves from Bramblin when it gains a level while outside of its Poké Ball after walking 1,000 steps using the Let's Go feature.

Interesting Facts:

  • Brambleghast’s design is inspired by tumbleweeds, which are often associated with ghost towns and desolate landscapes, fitting its Grass/Ghost type.
  • Its unique ability, Wind Rider, ties into its lore of traveling with the wind, making it a tactical choice in battles involving wind-based strategies.
  • Brambleghast adds to the diversity of Grass/Ghost types introduced in recent generations, offering unique battle strategies and abilities.
