As a Stage 2 Psychic-type Pokémon with 110 HP, this card evolves from Haunter and provides collectors with a piece of gaming history designed by Hajime Kusajima. For players, this card features the ability Fainting Spell, which allows you to flip a coin during your opponent's turn. If the result is heads, the Defending Pokémon is Knocked Out if Gengar would have been defeated by damage. This ability adds a layer of unpredictability and defense that makes the card valuable for deck building. Additionally, Gengar possesses two attacks: Psychic Shadow Room and Poltergeist. Psychic Shadow Room allows you to place damage counters on an opponent's Pokémon, dealing 3 damage normally or 6 damage if the target has Poké-Powers. Poltergeist deals 30 damage times the number of Trainer, Supporter, and Stadium cards in your opponent's hand, scaling its power based on the game state. Collectors often seek out cards from the Stormfront set to complete their portfolios or build specialized decks. The combination of Gengar's type, its stage, and its unique abilities makes it a sought-after item for those who appreciate the strategic nuances of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Whether you are looking to enhance your collection or find a key piece for your competitive strategy, this card represents a significant part of the 2008 release.
