Trophy information

Gastly's trophy.

Gastly's trophy is exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.

Gastly

This Ghost/Poison-type Pokémon is made up of several toxic gases—touching it would be really unpleasant. Instead, try to take it out with projectiles. It's not the fastest enemy in Smash Run, but occcasionally it may try to chase down a fighter, so be careful around this gaseous foe.

Origin

Gastly is a Ghost/Poison dual-type Pokémon introduced in Pokémon Red and Blue. It evolves into Haunter at level 25, which can then evolve into Gengar when traded with another player. They were the only Ghost-type Pokémon in the first generation games. Gastly and its evolutionary relatives can be found in various games in the wild in haunted areas, caves, and at night.

Gastly's immunity to melee attacks in Smash is likely a reference to the Ghost type immunity to Normal- and Fighting-type moves in the Pokémon games.
