Colors
Known for its dark purple, bipedal body, Gengar features red eyes, a wide mouth, and numerous spikes. Gengar’s body acts as a heat sink, cooling the surrounding area by nearly 10 °F (5 °C). When adding color to your Gengar coloring pages, consider the following tips:
- Use a palette of dark and eerie shades to bring out its ghostly essence.
- Start with deep purples and blacks for its body to capture Gengar’s iconic look.
- Add red for the eyes to highlight their menacing glow.
- Use shades of grey and dark blue for shadows and highlights to create a three-dimensional effect.
- Experiment with glow-in-the-dark or metallic colors to add an extra spooky touch to your artwork.
Fun Fact
Did you know that Gengar’s name is derived from “doppelgänger,” meaning “double” or “duplicate”? This fits perfectly as Gengar often mimics shadows to hide and surprise its prey. It can create illusions, extend its tongue by several meters, and even possess people and other Pokémon. Gengar is rarely found in the wild, but prefers dark places where shadows form, such as caves or urban areas during the night.
