Sinistea is a Ghost-type Pokémon. It evolves into Polteageist when exposed to a Cracked Pot or Chipped Pot.
Sinistea has two different forms that changes its appearance based on which object it is required to have in order to evolve. A stamp of authenticity can be seen to distinguish between the two.
- The Cracked Pot gives it the Phony Form.
- The Chipped Pot gives it the Antique Form.
Biology[]
Sinistea is a small dark purple Pokémon that inhabits a teacup. The teacup itself is mainly sea-foam green with a lacy pattern that resembles a face. It has gold on the base and around the rim, which is chipped in a spot and part of the Pokémon's liquid body is "overflowing". A small arm extends from another broken bit and holds onto where the handle would be, completing the look of the handle. A yellow swirl pattern can be seen from up above.
