How to Beat ??? (Polterpup)

Simply Play Along and Catch It

This ghost, when caught, is revealed to be a Polterpup, a non-violent and oftentimes mischeiveous ghost. It doesn't harm Luigi in the same way as other ghosts do, but its playful nature does sometimes get in the way. You will be able to catch this ghost as part of the story at the end of the first mission of the Treacherous Mansion.
