Nobody likes watching someone let themselves go, but this is a regrettable inevitability for the Rare Punkleton. Lacking the hardiness of the Common'sSmunkin-like head, it is doomed to decompose faster and turn into a sloppy mess. Donning a paper bag to limit the embarrassment, it's lucky that this ghoulish RareSeasonal is only really active during a time of dress-up - it fits right in, and no one's the wiser!
The Rare Punkleton was the second Rare Seasonal Monster to be introduced to the game. It arrived on October 15th, 2016 during the Spooktacle celebration.
Unlike its common counterpart, the Punkleton, the Rare Punkleton has a paper bag covering its head because it is decomposing. Its rotting innards and seeds can be seen going up and down on its body. Its skeletal body is ghastly-green and and its toes and rib cage are dulled turquoise. Vines and leaves also cover its limbs, which appear faded and inside its rib cage is a noticeable pink heart. The Rare Punkleton shares the same animation as the regular Punkleton, though at times it breathes its rotting innards and seeds in and out.
On Seasonal Shanty, breeding a Punkleton with any other monster can result in a Rare Punkleton instead of a regular Punkleton. Once a Rare Punkleton is obtained, breeding it with a regular Punkleton can make it easier to breed another Rare Punkleton.
Rare Punkleton, like all RareSeasonals are only available for short durations during their own season, a weekend Out-of-Season event (6 months apart) and during the Anniversary Month Celebration.

Feeding Monsters
Each monster needs to be fed four times before it reaches the next level. Increasing the monster's level increases the coins earned per minute, as well as the maximum coins earned.
Every monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the monster, the monster's happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of the same liked item near a monster will still only increase its happiness by 25%. If there's a Unity Tree on the island, items don't need to be near the monsters. Below are the things liked by Rare Punkleton:

Notes
Last 2017 appearance message
Rare Punkleton's face
The Rare Punkleton was the second Rare Seasonal monster to be introduced to the game and it appeared in the Market for twenty-four hours from October 15th, 2016 to October 16th, 2016.
A teaser of the Rare Punkleton was seen on the start-up screen for the 2016 Spooktacle season.
The Rare Punkleton's heart looks similar to the Schmoochle's egg.
Some of its default names (Jason, Freddie, and Mike) are references to killers in popular horror movies (Jason Voorhes, Freddie Krueger, and Micheal Myers)
The names Freddie and Mike may also be a reference to Five Nights at Freddy's, a game by Scott Cawthon that practically needs no introduction at this point
It appears as though the Rare Punkleton wears a paper bag so as not to reveal its embarrassingly lightbulb-bright face, as well as the decaying material inside its head.
The luminous brightness is caused by the decomposition of the Smunkin / Punkleton head, which emits a bioluminescent glow. ( Monster-Handler Matt, Extra-Life 2021 )
The brightness might also be saying that it's beautiful to look at
Teaser
Although their Common counterparts have different breeding times, the Rare Punkleton shares the same breeding time as the Rare Hoola.
Even though Rare Punkleton always has its mask on, an image on the My Singing Monsters Twitter page shows it without it!
However, there's so much glow that it's impossible to tell what it looks like underneath
The Rare Punkleton's mask appears to be inspired from a character in the game Thumpies, named Butter.
Rare Punkleton was the first Rare monster to be available on Seasonal Shanty.
