No need to panic, he will respawn tomorrow. Alternatively you can find Gengar in raid battles because he is currently promoted in Shield for the ongoing event.

And Sword too. Both Gigantamax Gengar and Machamp will appear in Max Raid Battles right now, but based on my experiences, the one in your version's Stow-on-Side Stadium battle is more common.

Oh okay so they respawn once a day is that it? Lol sorry for the dumb question.... Will he respawn at any time or a certain time tomorrow? Thank you so much for the tip!! And ugh yes I cant beat him in the raid battle, i literally lose every time lol any advice on which pokemon will beat him?

I'd like to add that Gigantamax Gengar is at Level 60, so I recommend your Pokémon be at least around that level, preferably with at least one other human player in the raid. You can't count on the computer players helping you out to pull through.

Can please anyone point me in the way of a list of the Pokemon that are able to enter home from Bank and Let's Go series? I'd like to know which Pokemon are available.

You want Pokémon that come from Let’s Go/Bank to Home?

Does your team for the game intro change whenever you beat the champion league again? I wanted to use it to train a few of my pokemon but I don't want the intro to replace my original team with them.

It replaces the Pokémon with the ones you have recently beaten the Champion Cup, yes.

You know, something I've been wondering about for a while now, and it hasn't changed for a long time--is there any advantage of Detect over Protect? They keep giving Pokémon the move by level-up (most recently with the Clobbopus line), but it seems to be identical to Protect but with less PP.

Then again, later generations have them learning the move at rather low levels, so perhaps it's an option if you're still going through the game and don't have the TM for Protect yet, especially as it's optional to get.

The rare chance of Imprison.

Isn't Detect just a special variation of Protect suited for Fighting types?

Thank you.. thank you.. thank you!!! I finally got him lol.... And
I've now been working on Dusknoir but he hasn't popped out anywhere. At least not the past couple days I've waited for him to spawn somewhere but nothing.
Any pointers??

Dusknoir will spawn in the Stony Wilderness portion of the Wild Area under certain weather conditions so just keep checking each day.

The weather conditions are listed here:

The chance of encountering a shiny Pokemon in Max raid battles is higher than by encountering it in normal conditions?

Think the shiny chances are identical for both methods (bar the shiny Magikarp Raid event). Players likely may have been using RNG manipulation to trigger shiny Raids.
