Talk:Ghosts in the Pokémon world

Your kidding me, right? This page isn't needed! --File:Spr 3e 059.gifFile:Spr 3e 132.gifTheryguy512 File:Trozeiani025.gif 21:46, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Why not? It is an actual character in the games. --FabuVinny ^T-C-S 22:03, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

I think we should keep it. Cmon, I promise to feed this article everyday, and give it water... pleeeeeaseeee? Tina ^δ♫ 22:54, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Ha. Yeah, I agree with Fabu-Vinny and Tina. -File:Spr 3e 186.gifニョロトノ666File:Spr 3e 186.gif

Okay, but we should change the title. Literal Ghost? I mean come on, is there an Unliteral Ghost? --File:Spr 3e 059.gifFile:Spr 3e 132.gifTheryguy512 File:Trozeiani025.gif 03:03, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Can't change it to Ghost though. Disambig's there. Tina ^δ♫ 03:05, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

It's a literal ghost as opposed to Gastly and the like who seem to be something different. --FabuVinny ^T-C-S 16:54, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, if it is a ghost a a Marowak, why don't we call it Marowak Ghost???? --File:Spr 3e 059.gifFile:Spr 3e 132.gifTheryguy512 File:Trozeiani025.gif 18:28, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

What if a different ghost showed up, however? I think we should keep the name.. Tina ^δ♫ 18:31, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

← It's a "literal" ghost because Gastly, Haunter, and presumably Gengar would be that as well without the Silph Scope. The Marowak's the exception, actually. TTEchidna^G_SDS! 18:41, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

How about "Mystery Ghost" or "Un-Silphed Ghost"? Missingno. Master 23:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

That's not really too good an idea. Literal ghost describes it better. TTEchidna^G_SDS! 04:53, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

I have an idea. How about Unsilphscopeificationalizationized Ghost "Pokémon Tower Ghost"? Well, maybe the latter's a little too cheesy. PH1R3STRIKE 22:53, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

What about GHOST (capitalized)? That's what it is named in the games. --Metagross72 03:44, 2 January 2009 (UTC)Metagross72

Japanese Name

I really doubt that Japanese name for literal ghost is ゴースト (Ghost) because it's already a Japanese name of Haunter and would lead to confusions. The Japanese word for ghost is Yūkai, but I'm not sure if those ghosts are called so in game (because there are actually few words for ghost/spirit in Japanese). Someone just has to check it out in Japanese version of G/R/B/Y/FR/LG... --Maxim 19:39, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

yeah something has to happen

i already said it before but we should merge with gastly or haunter (or possibly marowak.) or give the ghost its own page on the dex list. (before or after gastly or cubones group) #91.5 or #105 and a half.Whatswithalltheextraspace 18:25, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

You already said it before? I don't see your name on the page. Are you a sockpuppet by any chance? ^Moldy_Orange 18:27, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

on a DIFFERENT pageWhatswithalltheextraspace 21:50, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

any way the sprite is diffirent between rby and frlg. oh and how about the name "lavender ghost"Whatswithalltheextraspace 21:30, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

That's actually a great name for the page. Anyone else in agreement? IIMarckus 22:38, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

It is fine the way it is. ^Moldy_Orange 23:16, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

I kind of like Ghost (literal) for the name of the page. "Literal Ghost" seems like it's giving it a specific name or something.. ~Toastypk - ^Loom. 07:19, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

^What he said, now that I think about it. There's just something about that name 'Literal ghost' that doesn't...really fit. Glinn Mgraw 11:40, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Gen II

This article states that "it can be battled as a normal Pokémon by walking through walls in Generation II." Is this true? How does one use the walk through walls to encounter it? Is there even a sprite for the Literal ghost in the Gen II games' coding? - Bardock 18:06, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

WAT? That's a LIE! Who put this in the Pedia? I have to kick his ass! --Maxim 18:08, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Where are the sprites for the "ghost" in generation I and III?

Should we put them there? If yes, where are they?! Metagross72 22:27, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
