The beast can access a strong move pool with excellent stats and evolve into a fierce fighter. Phantump and its evolution, Trevenant, are formidable competitors during battle scenarios.

After catching a Phantump, trainers can evolve it into a Trevenant and boost its stats and damage output. Phantump and Trevenant are Ghost and Grass-type Pokemon with a potent and versatile move pool because of their dual typing. But despite these great moves, only a few have exponential damaging power.
