Ghosts are NOT real. Unless you want them to be. Or really really don't want them to be.
“Drifloon are notorious for giving parents heart attacks by playing with children, most going so far as to pick them up and carry the child off to somewhere unknown. The real issue isn’t that a child is playing with a Drifloon. They aren’t strong enough to carry a single child so the child can literally walk around with a Drifloon as if it was a simple balloon. The problem arises when there’s like 10 of them.”
“And even if the Drifloon takes the child, if they fight and struggle, they could be let go early. Which also accounts for some... of the children not returning home, strengthening that legend of ‘taken and never to be seen again’.”
“Over all, the pokemon is friendly if not overzealous when it comes to humans. Which is fairly rare for Ghost types in general.”
ghost fact.
Fucking myself over by refusing to record vital pieces of system information
“One hypothesis in terms of Klefki’s situation is easy enough to explain. It’s very similar to Carbink and Sableye in that it’s a cave dwelling pokemon that gets its nutrients from minerals in the rocks it consumes. Klefki hasn’t changed drastically since it’s discovery and I believe it to much like the Metagross line of bodies made up entirely of metal. Klefki looks like a keyring because it made it easier to stick its horn into raw rock walls to extract mineral ions.”
“However, another key difference when it comes to ghosts and Klefki is that its recorded that spirits that linger often are those who either ill-natured or simply lost. Klefki don’t gather around places where a lot of people died, they don’t siphon energy from living creatures, and they can’t pass through walls.”
“Take both Marowak and its Alolan counter part for example-”
“You know what? I find it incredibly fascinating how many items and non-animated objects actually get possessed by spirits and turn into pokemon. To think that dead tree stomps, sandcastles, cold cups of tea, dead seaweed, pumpkins, bladed weapons, bug shells and toys all have something in common enough to house spirits is so interesting! What is that connection!? And what about those who form from just being a lot of them!? What keeps Spiritomb before it gets sealed into a keystone from becoming a Drifloom!? You can't even consistently say that an empty vessel would do because we don't have ghost house Pokemon, abandoned car Pokemon- but you know what we have? A STEEL FAIRY THAT IS LITERALLY A POSSESSED KEYRING!!! WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!?"
“I have a few hypotheses actually-”
“The only thing that’s scarier than all of the possible endings one may face, I think the ultimate is what Jellicent does to you. It has been known to be feared by fisherman and for good reason! They have sunken ships upon ships in the past, and the people on those boats just vanish! There’s no record of remains ever being found and on the spiritual side, there’s no afterlife for those who are drowned by them.”
“Being completely erased from the world is pretty hardcore. Oh and the taller the crown on her head, the more life energy she’s taken! With that being said, I love mine, she’s pretty great!”
“Hammerlocke, being such an ancient relic of the past, is home to many ghosts. The most noted are definitely the Pumpkaboo that you can find in nearly every nook and cranny of Hammerlocke Hills. The fact that you can find every size really tells you the magnitude of the number of lives that been lost in the history of the land.”
