BST 600. These bars are the in-game combat stats, scaled against the highest value in the current roster.
Hoopa does not spawn in normal waves. It waits in a distortion rift, in an arena based on one of its types (Psychic / Ghost). Clear the rift and you keep a ×10 ticket reward. Lose, or let the two minutes run out, and you return with 30% HP and no payout.
The run starts with Confusion (Confusión in the game). A homing wave. Psyduck and Slowpoke start with it. Its damage was tuned down so it would not dominate runs.Later cards can offer any move of Psychic / Ghost plus every Normal move.

No. Hoopa joins the collection from the Kalos gacha, or as a wild shiny if you defeat one.
Hoopa is Psychic / Ghost. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.
Yes. A wild Hoopa is shiny at 1/4096, and a gacha copy is shiny at 1/100. Defeating the wild shiny adds it to the collection.
