|---|---|
| Yellow | Said to appear in decrepit, deserted buildings. It has no real shape as it appears to be made of a gas. |
| Gold | With its gas-like body, it can sneak into any place it desires. However, it can be blown away by wind. |

| Crystal | It wraps its opponent in its gas-like body, slowly weakening its prey by poisoning it through the skin. |
