Gengar: zodiac sign and birth chart
Gengar has no canon birthday. Pokémon are species, and neither the games nor the anime give one. Read from personality, they're a Cancer: Sun and Venus in Cancer, Moon in Capricorn, Scorpio rising, Mars in Taurus. The grinning shadow that jumps out of the dark, mostly for a laugh. Scary on the outside, a prankster underneath.

Birth chart
Gengar's chart at a glance
No canon birthday, so this is NEBO's take, read from their character.
NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. Their personality says Cancer.
We ran Gengar through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets them most often. It reads them as water first: playful, protective of their circle and happiest in the dark.
Canon

Cancer keeps the circle tight. Gengar evolves from Haunter only through a trade, so someone has to trust you.
- Moon

A Capricorn Moon is patient about the joke. Gengar waits in the dark for the best moment.
- Rising

No birth time in canon. First impression: a wide grin and a chill in the air before you see anyone.
- Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick
- Venus
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Venus loves a duo. Gengar pranks best with a friend.
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus Mars doesn't rush. Shadow Ball flies straight out of the shadows.
What canon does give: a ghost that hides in the dark and drops the temperature when it sneaks up. A Cancer answer is that the scares are really about being close to someone.
