Its story
Lifestyle
More active at night, it prowls towns and hides by day in old houses. Its powder steals life force, and it evolves into Sinistcha.
Name origin
Its look suggests a tea-ceremony object come to life, and the mending of broken pottery. Its name blends poltergeist and matcha, like Polteageist.
