To catch yourself a Gengar in Pokémon Violet, you've gotta do a bit of a hustle. First, catch a Gastly or a Haunter, which is Gengar's pre-evolutions. These spooky bois can usually be found lurking around graveyards or other creepy spots at night in the game. Now, here's where it gets a bit more interesting: to evolve Haunter into Gengar, you need to trade it. Yep, you heard that right. Find yourself a trustworthy friend, trade your Haunter, and it'll evolve into Gengar. Then, just have them trade it back to you. Voila! You're now the proud trainer of a Gengar. Remember, trade wisely!

Actually, you don't always need a friend. Haunter evolves into Gengar by trading, sure, but you can also find wild Gengar in the late game. They're super rare, though. Happy monster hunting!

Nah, why bother with a Gengar when there are way cooler Ghost types out there? Just sayin'.
