Human Ghost in Pearl?
 
This happened at about 9:20 at night. I was in the mansion where you catch Rotom, and after I caught him I decided to do some exploring. When I walked in the room 2nd from the right, I saw some little girl walk out of the room to the right of it. After that I never could find her again. Has this happened to anyone else?

Last Raven April 8th, 2008 11:33 AM

I've heard several stories of such a thing happening, I don't know what to make of it however.

El Gofre April 8th, 2008 11:35 AM

It has no relevance, its just something GF put in. There's a discussion thread somewhere.

Dont worry about it, it wont affect you ever

Dark Jay April 8th, 2008 11:36 AM

Oooh! The ghost of the old chateau.

So yeah, I saw the same thing. Maybe there's more to the old chateau than everybody thinks.

White Dragon ZB April 8th, 2008 11:36 AM

Does it have any meaning though?

T-C April 8th, 2008 11:39 AM

Yea the same thing happened to me too, never thought anything of it since.

Matt-O April 8th, 2008 12:55 PM

If you walk in and out of that room repeatedly the little girl will show up again. Sometimes there's an old guy in the dining room too. He just looks at you for a split second and floats off. Neither have any effect.

Hikari'sBuneary April 8th, 2008 3:00 PM

O_O; freaky. XDDDD
i've never seen that, but maybe i'll start hanging out at the old chaetau...

. April 8th, 2008 3:40 PM

It's a little bonus in the game. It has no effect on the storyline or plot. It's basically something to add that extra eerie feeling to the game.

IgnorantUser April 8th, 2008 3:53 PM

Oh, awesome. I'll have to see these for myself, sounds fun.

sol52 April 8th, 2008 4:45 PM

yea i saw it that was pretty weird

CrazyGamester April 9th, 2008 12:26 AM

I've never seen it. That place gives me the creeps anyway. I just caught Rotom and ran out of that place.

First, all the known information:


Real people ghosts:

Little girl - To see her, go upstairs to the middle room and then go to the second room from the right (the one with the eyes on the wall). When you enter, a little girl should appear on the room on the right, turn around and float (because her legs don't move) to the door, disappearing. If you don't see her, exit and enter the room again until you do.

Butler - Go forward to the dining room and you will see an old man at the other side of the table, who will then float to the left and then disappear. If you don't see him, exit and enter the room again until you do.

Pokémon ghosts:

Gastly are seen everywhere in the mansion. Haunter and Gengar appear less often if you have a GBA game inserted in your DS. And, finally, Rotom appears after obtaining the National Dex if you watch the TV closely during night time.

Mysterious "ghosts"
The picture in the room where you see the girl has red glowing eyes on it, staring at you unless you approach. When you leave the room and go to the other ones, the eyes will follow your direction. Apart from the eyes, there's the statue at the entrance of the dining room that "appears to be staring at you".

Theories

I heard in this forum a theory about these ghosts. Supposedly, the chef poisoned the food and killed the little girl and the old man, saving himself with an Antidote found in the kitchen.

I have some things to add to this theory. I think the little girl was NOT killed. The TM Substitute found at the room where the girl is can tell another girl was killed instead. Also it's strange that, the Old Gateau, which cures status ailments, wasn't used. But, in my opinion, this was what the real girl used to save herself. Maybe the girl is someone else in the game, she could even have grew up because no one says when this happened. Because there are no clues, it could be anyone, even Cynthia or Dawn (assuming the male character is the main one).

Wait. Or... Gardenia maybe? Anyway,
By Shiny Umbreon, from The Old Chateau thread.

Sora_8920 April 9th, 2008 5:42 AM

I've saw the old man and girl, it has no effect, really.

Speaking of eerie, the music is a bit eerie as well. <.<

Binary April 9th, 2008 9:39 AM

Wow, I never knew about this..lol
Well, I'll check this out....its pretty interesting..xD

Supreme Dirt April 9th, 2008 12:22 PM

My theory is that it is foreshadowing the third game, of which it is generally accepted that Giratina will be the main storyline figure.
Perhaps the Old Chateau will be linked to Giratina. Perhaps we will finally find out what lurks behind those people in the Pokemon Mansion (I used AR, and in DP nothing is there). Perhaps many of DP's mysteries that merely seem like easter eggs will be part of game three's storyline.

XEL April 9th, 2008 12:56 PM

wow i read this right after watching the grudge 2 now im all freaked out O.o

Cyberboy April 9th, 2008 1:03 PM

I saw both ghosts when I went in to catch rotom but nothing happened.

Virtual Chatot April 9th, 2008 1:08 PM

They have no relevance, they are just easter eggs :p

bruom April 9th, 2008 4:52 PM

ive seen the old man and the girl several times, but ive heard about an old woman too. ive never seen, and ive tried all the rooms many times. also, they just appear after it gets dark (6 or 7 o clock, dont remember now). you cant interact with them too.
a friend told me that if you try at halloween's night, something special may happen. i dont belive.
maybe they were created to a "rotom event", but it was cancelled, and the ghosts were left ther, just because its a haunted mansion. thats my theory.

Hadim Sinan Pasha April 10th, 2008 1:13 PM

It doesn't affect the game. I think we have our answer. I love the Old Gateu because after you beat the E4 you can go there and catch Gengar. I think it has a rarity of 5%. So a 1-in-20 chance of fnding one although it may seem like 100 before it appears.

As for this "THEORY", it's unusual but I think that perhaps the pokemon got poisoned aswell so then they used the Old Gateu on the pokemon and then when the Girl and Butler died the pokemon left and this beautiful mansion was over-run by Ghosts.

dialga493 April 10th, 2008 2:05 PM

Yeah I have no I idea what the two means either. But I only ran into the butler...

where do you find the girl? I have ran into the butler everyday and I have Diamond.

Kurogane April 10th, 2008 8:46 PM

What!!!???? I spent so long looking at the ghosts. thinking if you saw them both THAT was the way get rotom, it took ages since not every time looked for them they appeared. i didnt think it was apart of enything i thought they were the way to get rotom. interesting theories

Kratos_Aurion88 April 11th, 2008 6:42 AM

Yeah, I had the exact same thing happen to me on my Diamond version...

I wasted 2 hours trying to find something related to that.XD

darkace April 11th, 2008 8:01 PM

The truth to the story is a rumor. The butler poisined the food eating it as well, but i heard the girl drunk an antidote

LAMO. I've never heard of this. What a great idea. Maybe i will make the Old Chaetau my personal hideout O.o lol

:16:

hoshixcandy April 12th, 2008 12:43 PM

I've seen two ghosts, already mentioned I think, Girl and Butler, but I remember reading about a boy or something? Maybe they'll be useful later on (maybe an event or something?!), but as for now, the whole setting is wonderfully creepy... I love the Old Chateau, and the music is lovely (heh, I know loads say it's creepy...)...

But, I would love it if the ghosts could affect something in the game... Here's hoping!

It was the same on Friday in Diamond! But what spooked me the most was that the Girl had no Walk Animations. You didn't see her Legs move. SHE WAS FLOATING THROUGH THE DOORFRAME!
After that, I scouted the Old Chateau looking for her expecting a Battle or Item from her (Even the Eterna Forest) but I never saw her again. Even if you go into the room she doesn't appear. It could freak me out a lot.

Yes it has, it's built into the game. try going in and out of that room until you see her agin, she'll show up again, though it may take a while(or it may not). also try the same thing in the room to the left of that one. An old man appears downstairs in the diningroom occasionally as welll. The time doesn't do anything with the ghosts(I advise checking oput the ghosts before it's dark out if you're not used to seeing them). I ev train in the Old Chateau often and am used to seeing both ghosts, also there's a room with a portrait that watches you with red eyes that disappear when you are next to the back wall in the room it's in adn the two rooms on either side of it.The only other thing in there besided rotom is the statue that's glaring at you near the stairs(press the a button facing it to see what I mean).

Last Raven April 12th, 2008 5:23 PM

I think it might be time based...
I just saw the little girl at 9:21

Anyone remember at what time they saw the butler?
And where exactly in the dining room?

KageRyuu April 12th, 2008 6:08 PM

Wow, thats a waist of life. Going for something you cant even get to. Its sorta sad, but the theories behind the ghost people are interesting.

RenzokukenofCerberus April 12th, 2008 6:40 PM

Really? That's an interesting Easter Egg...I may have to start going to the old chateu

pkmn246 April 13th, 2008 3:42 AM

I have theory, the evil Rotom killed the girl, then the butler, it fled to the tv and got trapped inside.

Riokuga April 13th, 2008 6:29 AM

i come across them but yeah just a added extra when i first saw the girl i expected something to happen hmmm.....

~*Champion Shirona*~ April 13th, 2008 3:19 PM

OMG.... You guys, you see the same girl again. This time she is in the kitchen where the long dining table is. I kept on going back into the Old Chateau again. And after the ghost of the Butler fled. I came back into the dining room and went into the kitchen on the right. And sure enough, there she was sitting on the chair. She disappeared right into the wall. o.O. I am surprised no one brought this one up.

:16:

Last Raven April 13th, 2008 5:22 PM

Whoa thats wierd...
I wonder if the butler will show up again...or if anyone else will show up.

dtrain24 April 13th, 2008 5:55 PM

I saw the girl, not the old man. I know there no effect, but I wonder whats the history behind them. Maybe they died in the Old Chatau.

~*Champion Shirona*~ April 13th, 2008 6:10 PM

It seems to me like a wealthy family. Maybe she was Butler's grandchild. I mean look at the dining room. I love that place. On my spare time i would sit at the long dining table. =p. Oh how i wish that it was Darkari's home.

:16:

dtrain24 April 14th, 2008 6:26 PM

It being Darkrai's home does make sense. Too bad it's not true.

dialga493 April 15th, 2008 4:08 PM

There's a 3rd creepy thing at that mansion.

You go to the room one to the left from the middle and there's a picture...
BUT IT MOVES THE RED EYES LIKE SOMEONES WATCHING
AND IF YOU GO TO THE WALL...

THEY DISAPPEAR!!!!!!

Err. I think that everybody is quite aware of this. =p

:16:

Last Raven April 16th, 2008 1:04 PM

Yea...that was the first odd thing I noticed...aside from a ghost chillin in a TV. lol

Matt-O April 16th, 2008 1:14 PM

Are you people still discussing this! This thread has had more repetitive posts than I care to count. Once and for all: THERE ARE RED EYES THAT FOLLOW YOU IN ONE ROOM. THERE IS A LITTLE GIRL IN ONE ROOM WHO JUST FLOATS OUT. THERE IS A BUTLER IN THE DINING ROOM WHO DOES THE SAME THING. WE ALL KNOW THAT IT IS CREEPY.

dialga493 April 16th, 2008 4:22 PM

I when on Diamond at 6:30 and I saw the little girl and I went into all the rooms. The girl floated near me and ran away.

Who knows, maybe it could be Darkrai?

dtrain24 April 16th, 2008 5:54 PM

You were in the same room as the girl?

grassguy April 17th, 2008 10:42 AM

As soon as I saw this thread I went looking. I must say I was disappointed though, they just look like normal characters with no moving legs, they should at least be faded or something, scary house though. I wasn't in the same room as her, I don't think you can be in the same room as her.

zsaberslash April 17th, 2008 11:17 AM

I saw this thread and went looking about 20 mins ago, I saw the girl and the butler. Also, I noticed when you see the butler your character moves forward without you doing anything

Willbey April 17th, 2008 12:33 PM

Oh... I hate these things. I've seen three. One in the bunch rooms (at the back), And one in the hall, and one in the corridor you know where you get the old gateau? where you pick it up, inthe corridor there's a weird ghost (i think).
IN the TV (night) press a in front of it, and get ready to catch.... Rotom! Beware, only level 20, ledendary, at night ONLY!
Hey, you know the room with the red eye, right? Put any GBA game in slot 2 and guess what, you'll find a wild gengar or haunter!

Let's finish with one thing: I hate ghosts.

Matt-O April 17th, 2008 12:50 PM

BTW, Rotom is at Lvl. 15 and is not legendary.

dialga493 April 17th, 2008 1:18 PM

Oh so thats what the pictures for, a gengar. And i wasn't in the same room where you normally see the girl.

Tetsu April 17th, 2008 1:24 PM

I've never actually seen the girl, but once encountered the butler.
I didn't try again, as I couldn't be bothered with it. I was only there to nab a Gengar and some junk I forgot to grab the first time around.
