Pokemon Fan Art Shows What a Ghost-Type Sceptile Would Look Like
One of the core mechanics of the Pokemon franchise is the various types the pocket monsters can be. Each Pokemon can be either one or two of the eighteen types introduced in the Pokemon games with these types affecting more than just what moves they learn or how useful they are in a battle.
