Going to be honest, while a sandcastle Pokemon looks and sounds ludicrous at first glace, it’s pretty awesome how they did it here since this is actually a ghost manipulating sand into a structure that’s meant to collapse into a somewhat ant lion-like trap as we can see with the Pikachu.

In other words this thing has literally turned the idea of a collapsing sandcastle into an asset. Pretty creative if you ask me.

I like it too, though I had always pictured the idea in my mind as something looking more like Sandman.exe

That being said, I do like the creativity Game Freak used. Imagining being a kid in the Pokemon world, kicking over a sandcastle you see at the beach, only for it to attack you?
