    The Chamber of Emptiness, located in Kalos! Just what is this strange location...

    In Japanese, it is known as the Hollow Room. This strange empty room only holds a Spook Plate and later a Banettite. It is octogonal shaped and its map dexcription reads: "A mysterious void. It is said that nothing can exist within it.". Perhaps a final resting place, a trap, or sacred ground? What do you think?
    (As a reminder, you are not obligated to use the daily prompt and can spin the wheel for yourself)

    Today's daily spin is...

    Empty Pokemon Center/ "Where did everyone go?"

    Pokemon Centers in the Pokemon universe are hubs of activity and friendly camaraderie. A place for trainers and travelers to shelter from the world and for the pokemon to rest and heal from a long journey.

    But what if you found yourself at a pokemon center completely empty? Or woke up to find everyone at the center gone? Perhaps even something else is afoot....

    What do you think?

    Today we investigate Confuse Ray! The mind can play all kinds of tricks on one. The move confuse ray is but one way to mess with the brain. What does the move confuse ray do to a pokemon? What about a human? Or perhaps some other force tricks the mind...

    The Ultra Ruin
    Home to the Guzzlord, UB05-Glutton.
    According to research, The Ultra Ruin is a destroyed futuristic Hau'oli City from another dimension. The ruins are situated on top of a toppled skyscraper. Multiple doors and faded signs for a Tourist Bureau, an apparel shop, a malasada shop, and a salon are visible on it, suggesting the city was arranged as a block of flats.

    This eerie landscape seems to be a far off future of Alola. Is that what lies in store for the cheery island region? Guzzlord roams these ruins, and it is said a single human remains behind to keep it in check. A lonely existence...

    One of many futures, or just one? And what horrors lay in ultra space, waiting to be found...​

    Today is Ghoul Daze!

    During the DP anime, Ash and Co are at a Summer Training camp with friends and rivals. On the fifth day, they receive a challenge to study Ghost pokemon by traveling to the nearby Summit Ruins at night.

    Dawn's coordinator rival Conway partners with a mysterious little girl... who turns out to be a ghost who hypnotizes him and tries to lead him off a cliff and to his death! He's saved just in time by a friendly Dusknoir.
    Later, a misunderstanding paints the Dusknoir as a bad guy, and the same ghost girl opens a portal to hell (if you're watching the english dub; spirit world) and tries to suck Ash and Co in. Dusknoir saves them just in time and blasts the ghost girl to hell? spirit world?.

    What the heck, anime. What the heck. I remember this was a doozy.

    Idk y'all. Do with this what you want. Ghosts, hell portals, hypnotic death... lots of freaky stuff to farm for a prompt.

    I accidentally skipped a day.... oops! Today we have...

    1729779059188.png
    Cofragigus Pokedex entries paint an ominous picture...
    Ancient legends once told Cofagrigus could seal nearby humans in their bodies and turn them into mummies; grave robbers who mistake them for normal coffins get this fate. Cofagrigus is said to have once been human but having forgotten its memories from when it was alive. They also enjoy eating gold nuggets. It lives in tombs and ruins waiting for victims. Cofagrigus has been used as a symbol for the wealth of kings from a bygone era.

    What secrets does this pokemon hide. A unwary explorer or ill-intentioned grave-robber exploring old ruins... What horrors might they find?

    Or perhaps Cofragigus had life before it became what it is now...​

    It is said that in a Fighting Dojo in Lumiose, there is a lone ominous Hex Maniac.
    If you speak to her, she will say "No, you're not the one," and float away.

    This is one of the ghost encounters that appears to be canon to the games. What could her story be? Who is 'the one'?​
