Gengar is an interesting Pokemon. When it's knocked out, you put 3 counters on 1 of your opponent's pokemon, so they may be afraid to knock you out. With a react energy on, you can spread 4 more damage counters around each turn. Between this and shadow curse, your opponent's bench will take a ton of damage and could be good ATM rock bait. Curse Powder helps with this too, doing 30 more when Gengar dies.

Unlimited - I don't see much hope for this. Your opponent will ER all the reacts, and he's weak to Sneasel :(. I guess you could OHKO babies with his power but that's about it. 2/5

Modified - Much better here. ATM rock can do some destroying. Maybe use Espeon ex too. 4/5

Limited - You're lucky to get React Energy, but it's not bad, especially with its power. 3/5

Reviews are ratings are for Modified only.

Gengar: 3/5 I think it can work in a lock deck, but it is a stage 2, and there are better options for lock decks. I think being able to use put 4 damage counters instead of 3 (from Medicham ex's Pure Power) is nice, but it's harder to get it out in time, and that equalizes the extra damage you can do over time.

The Ghostly Gengar

Unlimited: To bad he isn’t good friends with Sneasel. And three for sixty is nice but needing two Psychic energy means that ER and SER wil kill it.

Rating : 1.5/5

Modified: Now here is were it could become/is great. I mean look at it’s power knocking this

Guy out will mean 30 damage and with a Curse Powder backing it will be 60 >_<. Not Only that but the attacks are great to, one Psychic energy will put two damage counters on any pokemon you like plus a react means four damage counters anyway you like >_<. Then it’s second attack is a solid 60 for three nice. Now I was thinking about putting it into a deck of it’s own. The first thing that came to my mind was a 3-2-3 Gengar line plus a Gengar ex and a 2-1-2 line of Pidgeot that together with some Plusle and you have a start. I didn’t play tested it so….. . Anyway I’m still searching for the right strategy for this card.

Rating : 3.5/5

Limited: If your lucky enough to pull it use it cause it’s power can be devastating.

And if you get it with 2 react Super. I know it hard to get a perfect line or multiple reacts,

But a friend of mine got a 2-2-2 Gengar line with two react >_< now that’s mighty ;-).

Rating : 2.5/5
