    When Gimmighoul is in Chest Form, you can battle and defeat or catch them. While you likely already have a Gimmighoul that you're trying to evolve into a Gholdengo, defeating or catching a Gimmighoul can yield you 10 to 777 Gimmighoul Coins. [1]

    While finding Roaming Form Gimmighoul is a bit difficult, finding one of these Pokémon will net you 1 to 200 Gimmighoul Coins. Roaming Form Gimmighouls cannot be caught, and will run away after you interact with them.
    • Roaming Form Gimmighoul can be found in random places around Paldea.
