Haunter (Japaneseゴースト Ghost) is a dual-type Ghost/Poison Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Gastly starting at level 25 and evolves into Gengar when traded.

Biology

Haunter is a purple Pokémon with a gaseous body. It has a round head flanked by three large, spiked protrusions on either side. It has triangular eyes with small pupils and a mouth with a long, pink tongue. The gases composing its head curve into its mouth to form several pointed teeth. Disembodied hands with three clawed fingers each float in front of its body. Its body tapers into a jagged tail. Haunter's gaseous form makes it one of the lightest Pokémon in existence. It can also float through walls. It has been shown in the anime that it can control its hands from far away and can control any Pokémon that it touches with its hands.

Haunter hides in very dark places, such as caves, and is afraid of light. If a human or a Pokémon comes near Haunter, it will stalk the victim while floating and beckon it to come closer. Once approached it will then lick the victim with its gaseous tongue, inflicting convulsions in the victim that last until death. Despite its predatory nature, it has been known to entertain and prank people in the anime. Additionally, it has even been shown to feel intense loyalty to a deceased Trainer. In the past, Night Shade was its signature move.

Trivia

  • In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Haunter's prototype name was "Spectre".
    • The Pokémon Trainer's Survival Guide also erroneously references Haunter by this name on one page.
  • No other Pokémon have the same type combination as Haunter and its evolutionary relatives.
  • Haunter is the Pokémon with the most cry changes throughout the core series games, having been changed in Generations IIIII, and VI.
  • Haunter's Generation I artworks and Generation III sprites depict Haunter with three fingers and one thumb. However, many of Haunter's depiction in other mediums, including the original series, has always depicted it with two fingers and a thumb.

Origin

Haunter appears to be based on a generic sort of cartoonish ghost. Like Gengar, Haunter may also be based on the Cheshire Cat, as it possesses what may be pointed ears; a large, toothy grin; and the ability to vanish at will. While many Japanese yōkai - ghosts and ghouls - are depicted with long tongues, Haunter's vampiric licking may have come specifically from the Dila, a Philippine spirit that licked the life energy of sick people until they died.

Name origin

Haunter is derived from haunt, as ghosts are known to do. It could also be a corruption of "hunter".

Ghost is literally ghost.
