Well, hehehe... Hello, everyone. If you'll remember, last time I attempted to show off one of my haunted finds it uh... went badly, kikiki. I didn't even OPEN the damn thing and now it's both haunted by a goblin AND buried six feet under, heheh!
But i've got something juicy, folks! The other day I got sent a pretty suspicious email, titled "IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR (REAL NAME) OPEN NOW". Obviously, some kind of spam, but since it didn't end up in my spam folder I humoured it and had a look. I am, of course, naturally curious! Hehehe!
I'm glad I did, because inside was a .GB ROM file! When i'm getting mysterious emails with ROM files in them, you know it's not spam! Somebody wanted me to open this puppy! The file was titled, quite simply, "Pokemon". Well, it's pretty dissapointing as these things go. No "Drowned Blue"? No "Malicious Yellow"? Lame. I feel bad for never showing you any of that other game I found, so i'll make up for it here, Kikiki! Join me as I look at this thing, and I promise you WON'T get haunted, heehee!
Hmm, title screen and intro are normal so far. Kind of lame!
Who's this handsome fella? Kikiki!
Well, haunted game or no, it'd just be WRONG of me not to uphold tradition here... Heheh...
Wandered around town for a bit but it seems pretty normal. The fat technology obsessed guy is acting weird, and our good pal SEXFUCK doesn't appear to be at the lab. What gives? Is he at the Loser Convention? Hehehe!
Here he comes! I braced myself for a true scare in the form of a boring scripted sequence where you slowly walk back to the lab, but instead of saying anything, he just kept giving me the silent treatment. I keep pressing the button but I don't think he's gonna talk!
Oh. Well, there we go! Not quite what I expected him to say... I was expecting an "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU" or something.
That seems to have taken me to this incredibly boring hallway! There's no music and I can't go backwards, so forwards it is! Kikiki!
...Huh. A shadowy figure! He looks way dorkier than these kinds of things usually do.
HEHEHE! Oh, here we go! The good part! Yeah, sure. I'll play with you! Go ahead! Steal my soul! Kikiki!
...What a fucking weirdo. Was he salivating? Well, it sent me back to the title screen for now. I guess i'll pick this back up lat...
...Uh. Is it just me or does that look kinda like the guy in my profile picture? Weird. I'll admit, that's a little spooky. But nothing I can't handle! AHAHA! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!

I'm pretty intrigued too, kikiki! I haven't touched it since, i'm giving our shadowy friend the benefit of the doubt and letting him do his thing, heheh.

why would an actually haunted game give away the name like that? also the games rarely ever do give themselves the name, its just the people who play them that name it something later on since just "pokemon" is hard to find. basically you choose what to call "Pokemon.gb" by

Hm... Well, we'll see! Heheh, basically nothing has happened yet. It's not even that scary yet! Kikiki!

Well, it's been a little while... But it seems our friend has gotten restless, hehehe... Recently, I was away from my computer, and came back to find... this.
My emulator had opened up, and according to the display was running our beloved "Pokemon"- but the screen was utterly blank! Kikiki!
But of course, it doesn't stay that way. Here's our little friend- He hasn't told us his name yet, so I think i'll call him "Burster"... After that weird thing he said last time. Like hey man, i'd prefer if you didn't do it in front of me, but whatever gets you your kicks! Ahaha!
Oh great, he's drooling again. Somebody pass me the digital mop...
JESUS, MAN! PERSONAL SPACE! HEEHEE!
Thanks for taking a step back! Or ten!
Huh. Guess that's all he has to say. My emulator shut itself off after this... Creepy! It's at least original, i'll give it that. Next time i make another big update i'll probably actually be playing it again... hehehe!

No hacking, my friend! Just forces beyond our understanding! Kikiki!

Well, been a while, huh? Kikiki... I won't stall much, and i'll get straight into it. I'm actually gonna play some more this time, heheh...
Before we start, though... Here's the ROM file on my computer, just in case you dared think I would ever lie to you about the existence of a thing such as this, kikiki!
Looks like we start in Prof. Oak's lab, even though I don't think I remember saving last time. How nice!
Seems our friend has changed my choices around... Cubone, Abra, and Kabuto. Well, Abra is useless at this level so they're out! Kabuto's cool, but i'll pick Cubone. Feels appropriately grim for this kind of thing, kikiki!
I'll call you... Marrow. Like bone marrow! Clever, isn't it? Heheh!
Mooom! Oak's being weird and vulgar to me again! This game is making me laugh more than scream, and i'm starting to think it's intentional. I think I like our glitchy friend's style, kikiki...
Oh, brother... Can't escape this guy even here! At least he doesn't have much to say like this, heheh... I won easily, of course.
Right when I try to leave, this guy ambushes me again. What does he mean dear ol' SEXFUCK was angry at me? Was it cause I named him that? I don't think I can blame him, kikiki! He disappeared pretty quickly, though. I guess he was just checking up on us, heh.
Seems our little Marrow can't do anything to these Pidgeys at the moment cause all he's got is a ground move! Guess we'll stick to beating up rats for now.
Well, the NPCs are changed... And they're all fuckin' weirdos now! Now this is my kind of haunted game, heheh...
Well, thank you for the critical advice!
Well, we made it to town. Time for that stupid package fetchquest, I guess... Oh?
...Oh, god damn it.
A... quiz??? I was expecting a battle with Lv. 100 Pokemon or a team of Perish Song Celebis or something, but i'll take a quiz! Hehehe!
First question's kind of dull, just your basic boring trivia. I could do this one in my sleep! This is nothing compared to memorising the Pokerap, kikiki...
Now, that's more like it! That's the kind of blunt threat we all know and love! Of course, I imagine the answer is yes. I'd like to see him try, though!
Wh- I'm not letting any of you see that, sorry.
... ...I mean, how typical! How expected! Trite, even! Kikiki! And it was wrong, anyway. So.
Shut up! I only ever tell the truth! K-

Knowing what it's been like so far, I wouldn't be surprised if I ran into a route full of nothing BUT Mr. Mimes, kikiki... Also thank you for the hex, my Goblinoid friend! I'll stick it down this guy's throat and make him explode! Ahaha!
