Happy Halloween season, my friends. It's time to get spooky yet again. I wanted to really take a look at arguably the creepiest part of any mainline Pokémon game: Lavender Town, specifically from the Red and Blue versions.

As a child I actually stumbled upon the Pokemon Adventures manga and was so scared by the rotting Psyduck's eyeball falling out that I just ran through Lavender Town as fast as I could whenever I played. I didn't want to go in the tower at all. I legitimately had nightmares about it. Sure it's... pretty tame all things considered, but overactive child imaginations are not to be trifled with.

I think this location truly shines in Gen 1. Before breeding mechanics existed and made Cubone's lore irrelevant, the fact that Ghosts were actually mysterious and dangerous instead of just run of the mill Pokemon, and with that extremely unsettling music that could only have been produced on the gameboy... it's just a perfect storm of atmosphere. One of the most well-executed locations in all of Kanto for sure.

Lavender Town is probably one of the most important parts of the original games in terms of cementing the franchise as a cultural phenomenon. The violent tonal shift and easy fodder for mystery and spooky rumor gave a lot of people something to remember even if the rest of the game didn't grab them, like a standout experimental episode in a popular TV show.

Pokemon Tower & Mt. Pyre played a role in the game's folklore when growing up. "What happens after your pokemon reach level 100?" "They go to the Pokémon graveyard, of course." I don't remember how we picked that up or how much we believed it, but it's one of those things that came from a time when the games weren't 100% understood, documented, and available to look up online. I wonder if anyone else heard that one playing the early generations.

My favorite part about lavender town is that it’s s a really memorable way to teach players that pokemon are not immortal and when they pass, it’s really heartbreaking (and that you should treat them with respect just like any other animal). It’s an effective to world build is such a simple/limited game. I also really like how the events here imply that this is how Mr. Fuji is attempting to fix his past transgressions with what he did in the mansion in cinnabar island.

They were really toned down. If you look at the black and triangular sprites of Gen 1 and compare them to the dull purple and rounded shapes they have now, it just doesn't work as well now.

All I can ever think about with the Lavender radio tower is how they had to exhume all those bodies. They almost certainly didn't get permission from the trainers. It frustrates me to this day they just shrugged it off like defiling a gravesite -- THE gravesite -- was totally normal and nobody had any problems with it.

Pokemon tower was likely not an actual graveyard. It would be kind of hard to bury pokemon in wooden planks or a tile floor. More likely, it was a japanese shrine where trainers went to pray for pokemon who passed on. The graveyard itself is likely elsewhere, or the pokemon's bodies were stored in balls, so there wasn't any real exhuming.

Interesting footnote on the inspirations of Haunter's lore! It's definitely the first time I've learned about it! Fun fact, "Dila" literally translates to "Tongue" in Filipino, which makes a lot of sense considering it's an evil spirit that licks people to death :P

It’s gotta be a housing market thing. Taxes are too high in Cerulean with the waterfront property.

Every time I hear the Lavender Town opening music, I immediately remember and can see "The Pokemon Hoarder" video from Mosama in my head. The professor... The Bulbasaur... The other Bulbasaurs... and then the rest of the Professor's basement... Oh Jeez, thats dark.

I wonder if Gengar, Ghastly and Haunter were based off of the Boo Brothers from Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers.

Isn't the point of what Blue says about not being able to find marowak that Team Rocket killed all of them and that's why all the cubone are wearing skulls?

It makes sense that all the cubone in that gen have the skull if you imagine team rocket exterminating an entire generation of marowak buuuut after that generation of cubone it wouldnt happen again in theory so by gen 2 they shouldnt have skulls
