Living Pokemon are miserable, but there is something truly horrifying about Ghost-type Pokemon. Their very existence seems to indicate that there is no afterlife in the Pokemon universe – spirits are left to eternally wander the planes of the living, stuck doing battle with them even after death. None of the Ghost-type Pokemon seem to have particularly painful afterlives, but many – such as Yamask (who carries its own face as a mask and cries whenever it sees itself) – are clearly wracked with emotional turmoil and regret. And, worst of all, there is no hope of it ending, since they’ve already died.
