I expected a special attacker but got a physical wall instead.
And you know what, I'm not even mad: might not be able to use flamethrower too well, but can eat hits like no other. Will-o? leech seed? pain split? super size's HP? this is the single most useful ghost type I've ever come across in playthroughs. No physical attacker can break it. The only other ghost that I remember having as much fun with is gengar, to give you an idea.
Gourgeist remains my fav ghost to this day. The only thing it needs is a mega with flash fire and ~110 special attack. Bulk, fire immunity and strong shadow ball/energy ball/flamethrower? yes please.
