Pokemon Umbral Theatre 37: Setting the Standard In Having Low Standards

[Astral Harmony]

Shall we get a little creepy today?



Buried Alive

Let's see if I can remember these without going back to do some research. Buried Alive here replaces Cubone's mother as the boss fight in Pokemon Tower located in Lavender Town in the Kanto region. He fights like a Pokemon Trainer, using four very high level Pokemon. If you can manage to somehow defeat him, the game crashes, but if you lost to him, you get to view a game over screen with him cradling your dead body as he slowly drags you down into the soil to consume you.



Creepy Black

In Pokemon Black (which is a special version of the original Pokemon games), the trainer acquires a unique Pokemon simply called "Ghost", which resembles the unidentifiable sprites of ghost Pokemon in Pokemon Tower until you gain the ability to see what they really are. Ghost has only one attack called Curse (the official Curse move didn't exist at this time) and Curse was not only able to instantly kill any and all Pokemon that attacked it, but was even able to kill the rival trainers that challenged you. Once you defeated the Elite Four, the game shoots forward to you as an old man in a strange tower, meeting and speaking with the lost souls of those whom Ghost has cursed. Then you get to fight Ghost yourself, with you having no Pokemon and no moves other than Struggle. Ghost will wait until you are nearly dead from the recoil damage and finally use Curse to put you out of your misery.



Lost Silver

Lost Silver involves Gold trapped inside Belsprout Tower with a Cyndaquil and the rest of his party filled with Unown. What is special about these Unown is that their arrangement in your team spells words. As the game continues, the player steadily undergoes some disturbing changes, such as losing him limbs and head while his team is arranged. There's a Pokemon battle where he fights Red's level 255 Pikachu with what appears to be half of a shiny Celebi. And the Unown are constantly getting rearranged to spell more creepy messages, like H-E-D-I-E-D and N-O-M-O-R-E.



Strangled Red

A young trainer named Steven lived in Pallet town with his brother. He was a Charmander trainer and had named his Charmander Miki. Anyways, he goes about his journey and then one day must trade his Miki (then a Charizard) over to his brother so that they can complete their respective Pokedexes. Unfortunately, something happens during the trade, and Miki is no longer with us. Steven, lost in despair, does the unthinkable and swims (without the aid of any Pokemon) to a beach where he encounters MissingNo and wills MissingNo to join him, believing that MissingNo possesses a unique power to bring Miki back. He returns to Pokemon Tower and acquires a mysterious item that has one very unique ability...that he then uses on his own brother when he returns to Pallet Town. The ability? Well, there's a red this particular hacked game is called Strangled Red.



While not a creepypasta in it's own right, do note that Rosa is on her way to Honmyr...and she's looking to make some new friends. Thou hast been warned.

Oh, and one more...



Are you quite sure that you made up that whole Jigglypuff theory on your own, Aldurin?
