Misdreavus
ghost
It loves to watch people it's scared. It frightens them by screaming loudly or appearing suddenly.
Misdreavus is a pure Ghost type with decent speed and special stats. It evolves into a dual Ghost/Fairy type which is another interesting typeset. It learns Nasty Plot as an egg move & and as its final level up move. It can be used to sweep especially with Dazzling Gleam for coverage, Will-O-Wisp is a good contender for a TM/HM move to chip away at a opponents Pokemon. Levitate gives Ground immunity.
