I decided that there is a bit of a mytery behind Spiritomb so I decided to make a thread.I decide this when I read Spirit tombs Pokedex Entry it said that it had been bound to a fissure in an odd keystone for misdeeds 500 years ago.The discription of the odd keystone says that Voices can be heard from it Occasionally.Doesnt that make you think that Spiritomb is an evil pokemon?The odd keystone discription also says that it is vital to keep a stone tower from calapsing.Any other things that you have heard about Spititomb or the Odd Keystone?

Im going to try that.But man his cry is kinda freaky if you know what I mean.He sounds as if he has been torturd.Maybe he was darkrais slave and didnt do what Darkrai told him to do.They both seem so evil in a way.

flarizardmew, don't go offtopic asking about Spiritomb's location. It's in the Pokémon Location List, and in the Underground guide in the FAQ. And this is not the place to ask anyway.

Coincidence. o.O; I mean, yeah, it's suppose to reference the number all over the Pokémon.
If you listen closely to Spiritomb's cry, you can hear what sounds like a young voice saying "Hello".
I'm not sure about this. If you tell us to hear 'hello', we'll probably do because we know what to hear already. But you can imagine lots of things.

Anyway, legends say Spiritomb is 108 spirits in a stone or something.

Diamond: "A Pokémon that was formed by 108 spirits. It is bound to a fissure in an odd keystone."
Pearl: "It was bound to a fissure in an odd keystone as punishment for misdeeds 500 years ago."

The PokéDex (and Sinnoh legends in general) goes to far in my opinion. Okay, let's study it. It seems like a gas sort of thing, as many other Ghost Pokémon, with green particles forming a ring of circles and a face-like shape. And, yes, it stands in a stone. The rest is just folklore. I mean, do ALL Spiritomb are spirits "magically" sealed in a stone? And when they have babies? It's just a strange species, but you don't have to treat it like a cursed artifact.

Spiritomb is just like Rotom....A mystery.I mean a Spiritomb can't lay an egg with an Oddkeystone in it that hasn't had something sealed up inside it.That would be extremly wierd.Lawls.......O.o

Spiritomb isn't necessarilly evil. As the name implies, 108 spirits are trapped in a "tomb". In this case, the Odd Keystone. Or maybe the spirits that's in there "cries" in there because they regret the deeds they've done.

That is quite possible.But who would have sealed it away?Darkrai?Arceus?
I thought about it and it does seem sad in a way.But it must have been evil once or it wouldn't of been sealed up.....Hmmmmmmm......This still puzzles me...It may have been good once but then was sealed away by some that was evil.But that doesnt really make sense, does it?.................Hhhmmmmmmmm...................

Hey, guys. Spiritomb is not a separate character. There is more than one. Nobody sealed it. It's a regular species. If not, it wouldn't be able to breed. The fact that it's gaseous and that it's body structure is a bit odd doesn't mean it's a cursed tomb containing spirits. Don't believe in that magical stuff because they contradict themselves.

Ive never noticed that, could you post some examples?
This spiritomb is more in depth than i thought lol
Cloud's examples are all of them.

By the way, don't go offtopic with Darkrai. This thread is about Spiritomb. And that post about a Spiritomb event wasn't necessary.

This is the second time I have to delete posts for being offtopic. It's not wrong to mention Darkrai could have sealed Spiritomb, but don't start talking only about Darkrai.

When I first saw spiritomb, it didn't even look pokemon-like at first, looks like an evil ghost or something. But maybe spiritomb isn't even a pokemon at all, maybe it's just some animal that can be caught in a pokeball...or maybe it's the combined souls of a bunch of deceased and rotting pokemon and only their anger and rage remain, which creates the being that is spiritomb. Maybe spiritomb is like a tomb for spirits, or perhaps I'm just rambling nonsense, but spiritomb really is a mysterious pokemon.

Just thought of something add It's Pokédex entry from Diamond "A Pokémon that was formed by 108 spirits. It is bound to a fissure in an odd keystone." with it's Defense (108) and Special Defense (108) then add it's Shinnoh Dex Number 108 it comes to 432 then as it is supposed to be cursed add the PP of curse 10 then it will add 442 which is it's National Dex Number.

PS. Sorry if I wasted my time.

This is starting to sound like alot of those 9/11 conspiracies. Anyways my own thoughts on spiritomb are:

32x4=108( I think I did the math in my head)
32 people you need to talk to
4 moves spiritomb knows at any given time
108 spirits make up spiritomb
the crumbled tower is some sort of "spirit prison" but since it's aging its powers are waning and spirits are escaping
the odd keystone is enchanted just like the tower but can only hold 108 spirits
by placing keystone on the tower you trap 108 of the escaping spirits thus forming the pokemon

I'm pretty sure that breeding Spiritomb and getting a Spiritomb egg with an odd keystone appearing from the egg is merely a game mechanic sort of thing... But what if the odd keystone itself is alive, and grows? What if a piece of it were to break off, and grow into an actual Spiritomb? (Alot more than 108 people die each day, so it could be possible).

Er... a bit coincidential, in my opinion. Yes, 108 spirits, #108 in the Sinnoh Dex, 108 Defense, 108 Sp. Defense, and 108 kg. But you can take as many 108's as you like to make that ecuation fit. Not necessarily true.

Okay, the 32 has something to do with 108, but the 4 has no sense. I don't think it references the number of moves since it would do that with any Pokémon.

Mmm... not sure about it being a game mechanic. They are a species. That means they can breed and create other Spiritomb which, by the way, also live in odd keystones. I don't if the keystone is necessary at all but it seems to be. Probably they are attracted to those kind of stones or something, I don't know.

And, guys, don't take that part about the 108 spirits that seriously. If you think a bit, that can't be possible, even in the now-more-magical-than-ever Pokémon world.
