It certainly wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility. They can possess inanimate objects, after all. In fact, many species of Ghost Pokémon only come into existence by possessing something.

I believe it won't be a problem with your current Pokémon, though. As far as the research I've gathered can tell, Spiritomb is inextricably bound to it's stone.

[isleavepossible]

Of course they would.


And being bound to something, some place doesn't mean ghosts can't possess someone.

Uh....do you know if it's possible to unbind them? Just so, you know I NEVER do that by accident? I don't have the best luck with this sort of thing and the last thing I want is to accidently release over 100 spirits.

[gonebyebye]

True, but in my experience a possessee needs to have the object the spirit somewhere on their person for the entity to retain control of them.

Which in this particular case would mean carrying a 108 kilogram rock everywhere. Difficult and just a little bit hard to hide. Using a Pokeé Ball as a medium to reduce that weight likely wouldn't work, as that's designed to contain it's energy even further than it already is.

As far as accidentally releasing them goes, I haven't found any records of it happening. Apparently, it's difficult to do on purpose, never mind unintentionally.

[isleavepossible]

I hope that's the version of ghosts they have here.

[Her's aren't really ghosts back home but that's what she's calling them anyway.]

It can float at least, so I don't have to lug it around with me.

Oh good. Hopefully I don't end up being the exception that proved the rule, or whatever that saying is.

[gonebyebye]

Well, if you do get possessed or accidentally release any spirits, I'd be more than willing to help you out. Dr. Ray Stantz. I work in paranormal investigation, research, and containment. Ghosts are a specialty of mine.

[isleavepossible]

Wait that's an actual thing? You know stuff about ghosts and the paranormal?

You're not some ghost hunter from one of those fake reality tv shows are you?

[gonebyebye]

Oh, no. What I do is entirely real. The City of New York even keeps my colleagues and I on retainer.

[isleavepossible]

There's a short pause before the next response.

Do you know anything about alternate dimensions and time loops?

[gonebyebye]

Alternate dimensions? Plenty. I've got a dimensional doorway in my basement and frequently collaborate with alternate universe versions of myself.

As for time loops, I've never personally experienced one. I've read more than a bit about them. And we have evidence indicating one of Venkman's dimensional doppelgangers may have repeated the date of February 2nd, 1993 for an extremely prolonged period. We haven't had much of a chance to follow up on that, though.

[isleavepossible]

Okay so maybe this will sound less weird then I thought saying it would. But if you have any advice, I'll take anything at this point.

.....back home. I accidently ...opened a dimensional rift or something like that with my radio on this island. And I let out these...ghosts or something. And the only way to stop them from possessing my friends was to close the rift from the inside.

And I did, only I'm in there now. And time loops on me, because I'm not in reality anymore but this never ending time loop of like a few years that all start with that night on the island. And I forget and restart every time.

I've only started to realize that I'm trapped and I thought I could send messages back to myself to stop myself from coming to the island at all but the ghosts said it would only help ....other versions of me in other timelines. Which yeah, I'm still going to try and do. They don't deserve this.

But I'm apparently stuck like this for eternity if I go back. The only reason I remember this much is because I got snatched here before time could reset on me again.

Do you think there's anything I can do to get out? Like actually get out?

[gonebyebye]

Without knowing more about the situation and what resources you have on hand, I can't really say. My gut instinct says no, though.

Which doesn't preclude external help. If I can figure out your dimensional frequency, in the event I return home I could open a door there, pull you out, and then work on a way to return you to your universe of origin.

[isleavepossible]

Wait really?

I don't know if that would even work but .....thanks.

Just....don't get trapped for my sake. I...chose to stay there to save my friends, I don't want anyone else stuck with me and the Sunken.
