Pokemon Sword and Shield Pumpkaboo

Players will find that Pumpkaboo is a Ghost and Gras type character. This means players will have the best success using Ghost, Dark, Flying, Fire, and Ice types against it in battle. 

This particular creature will evolve into its evolution of Gourgeist when a player trades it to another trainer. Players who would like to have a Gourgeist on their teams will be wise to trade their Pumpkaboo to one of their friends and evolve it into Gourgeist. Your friend can then trade you your evolved character back and allow you to have it as a member of your team for future battles and other adventures in the Galar Region. 

This character can be found at the locations of Route 4, Giant’s Mirror, and Hammerlocke Hills in the newly released titles from the legendary franchise.
