What was the method behind Graves' appearance?
I've seen Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them but I can't recall if I assumed that Grindelwald had been using Polyjuice in order to take on Graves' appearance, a la Barty Crouch and Mad Eye Moody appearance, or if this was factually confirmed in the movie. Do we know it was definitely Polyjuice?
I want to know if Graves' could appear in the sequel so is he alive in order for the Polyjuice production to continue or is he likely murdered.

A: The technologies that are used in these contexts are what we call \u201cremote sensing.\u201d So they're ways of looking below the surface of the earth without having to dig.

The underlying intention of some unmarked graves may be to suggest that the person buried is not worthy of commemoration, and should therefore be completely ignored and forgotten, e.g., school shooters Seung-Hui Cho and Adam Lanza.GRAVES OF THE MONUMENTS - DYING LANGUAGE
