History
Pumpkaboo is a Ghost/Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI (Kalos region), known as the Pumpkin Pokémon. According to legend, it serves as a vessel that carries wandering spirits to the afterlife, becoming restless and roaming at night. It notably comes in four different sizes (Small, Average, Large, and Super), and it evolves into Gourgeist when traded. Its associations with ghosts and pumpkins tie it strongly to Halloween imagery.
Name & meaning
The Japanese name バケッチャ (Baketcha) combines 'お化け' (obake), meaning ghost or monster, with 'かぼちゃ' (kabocha), the Japanese word for pumpkin, reflecting its Ghost/Grass typing. The English name 'Pumpkaboo' merges 'pumpkin' with 'peekaboo,' the children's game, evoking both its gourd-like body and its playful, spooky nature.
