Flavor Text
Polteageist SpriteScarletThe tea that composes Polteageist's body has a distinct and enjoyable flavor. Drinking too much, however, can be fatal.
VioletThese Pokémon multiply by creeping into teapots and pouring themselves into leftover tea.
Polteageist SpriteScarletApparently a Polteageist's disposition is affected by the type of tea the Pokémon came from. What teapot it inhabits makes no difference.
VioletThough risky to drink, this Pokémon's tea tastes delicious. Gourmets who have no fear of danger drink Polteageist tea day after day.
