'''Spiritomb''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] ミカルゲ ''Mikaruge'') is a {{ | '''Spiritomb''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] '''ミカルゲ''' ''Mikaruge'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ghost|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]]. | ||
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon. | |||

[[File:Odd Keystone anime.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Odd Keystone]]]] | |||

Spiritomb is a ghostly purple {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} attached to a stone. Although lacking a physical body, Spiritomb projects its appearance out of a small rock called the [[Odd Keystone]]. The rock is trapezoidal in shape and has two small dots. There is a fissure running down the middle, splitting in two near the bottom. The crack in combination with the two dots appears to form a frowning face. Spiritomb's projected appearance is an ethereal composition of swirling purple energy of an unknown kind. Its face is set in the middle of the purple, and contains green, crescent eyes that are connected to its jagged mouth. Its pupils are composed of a spiral and it is sometimes only seen with one. Swirling around its face are green orbs with yellow centers. | |||
Spiritomb is formed by a collection of 108 spirits, some of which are ill-natured. This collection of spirits is known for its misdeeds; thus, as punishment, the spirits were trapped to its Odd Keystone by a traveler using a mysterious spell. Several Pokédex entries state that Spiritomb was sealed roughly 500 years before the present time. The Pokémon lays curses with its wicked thoughts. It will lash out at anyone with little thought, often exercising short-sightedness in its pursuit of vengeance. It is rarely encountered in the wild. In most media, Spiritomb moves its body primarily through levitation; though in the core series games, it can only appear to do so through dragging the Odd Keystone across the ground. | |||
= | Papers found within [[Sea Mauville]] in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} state that it was donated from the [[Oreburgh Mine]], suggesting that several Odd Keystones meant to contain Spiritomb can be found in the [[Underground]] of Sinnoh. [[Professor Cozmo]]'s father, Raizoh, was responsible for misplacing it when working on the ship.<ref name=SeaMauvillePapers>''"The file folder holds a stack of ragged papers.<br> Official Statem— of Apolog— <br> I, —izo— Co—mo, am respon— for the los— of the Odd Keystone dona—d...by the Oreb—gh Mine..."''</ref> | ||
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Spiritomb's 108 spirits appear in the form of [[Wisp]]s, small purple entities scattered across the [[Hisui]] region after a seal was broken. When 107 Wisps have been taken to a large Odd Keystone shrine at the [[Crimson Mirelands]]' [[Shrouded Ruins]] as per [[Vessa]]'s request, she will provide the player with the final Wisp and disappear, with a wild Spiritomb appearing shortly afterwards. | |||
As depicted in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', Spiritomb can be just as aggressive and destructive as the spirits that it is composed of. ''[[JN091|The Spectral Express!]]'' also revealed that anyone possessed by one of Spiritomb's spirits will start to cause misdeeds, and their face will eventually start to resemble Spiritomb. Losing one of these spirits will cause Spiritomb to go on an uncontrollable rampage until the lost spirit is returned. | |||

Spiritomb (Japanese: ミカルゲ Mikaruge) is a dual-type Ghost/Dark Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Spiritomb is a ghostly purple Pokémon attached to a stone. Although lacking a physical body, Spiritomb projects its appearance out of a small rock called the Odd Keystone. The rock is trapezoidal in shape and has two small dots. There is a fissure running down the middle, splitting in two near the bottom. The crack in combination with the two dots appears to form a frowning face. Spiritomb's projected appearance is an ethereal composition of swirling purple energy of an unknown kind. Its face is set in the middle of the purple, and contains green, crescent eyes that are connected to its jagged mouth. Its pupils are composed of a spiral and it is sometimes only seen with one. Swirling around its face are green orbs with yellow centers.
Spiritomb is formed by a collection of 108 spirits, some of which are ill-natured. This collection of spirits is known for its misdeeds; thus, as punishment, the spirits were trapped to its Odd Keystone by a traveler using a mysterious spell. Several Pokédex entries state that Spiritomb was sealed roughly 500 years before the present time. The Pokémon lays curses with its wicked thoughts. It will lash out at anyone with little thought, often exercising short-sightedness in its pursuit of vengeance. It is rarely encountered in the wild. In most media, Spiritomb moves its body primarily through levitation; though in the core series games, it can only appear to do so through dragging the Odd Keystone across the ground.
Papers found within Sea Mauville in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire state that it was donated from the Oreburgh Mine, suggesting that several Odd Keystones meant to contain Spiritomb can be found in the Underground of Sinnoh. Professor Cozmo's father, Raizoh, was responsible for misplacing it when working on the ship.[1]
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Spiritomb's 108 spirits appear in the form of Wisps, small purple entities scattered across the Hisui region after a seal was broken. When 107 Wisps have been taken to a large Odd Keystone shrine at the Crimson Mirelands' Shrouded Ruins as per Vessa's request, she will provide the player with the final Wisp and disappear, with a wild Spiritomb appearing shortly afterwards.
As depicted in The Keystone Pops!, Spiritomb can be just as aggressive and destructive as the spirits that it is composed of. The Spectral Express! also revealed that anyone possessed by one of Spiritomb's spirits will start to cause misdeeds, and their face will eventually start to resemble Spiritomb. Losing one of these spirits will cause Spiritomb to go on an uncontrollable rampage until the lost spirit is returned.
