Apparently, Spiritomb was nearly named Phantomb.

 

 

Would you guys prefer this, or like how it is now?

Source?

Spiritomb

Well,at least we knew they saved it for another creepy ghost in X&Y whose Pokedex entry mention that it's actually the soul of a child who died in the forest

From the Dex.

 

 

And, Metal Snake, isn't it Phantump? O.o

 

Sorry, I can't quote.

Sorry, what? Is that a site? If so, did they actually get it from an interview or at least from the mouth of someone in the localization team?

It's a youtube channel.

 

 

 

The most recent video, I believe.

 

Not exactly the MOST reliable, although they just do Pokémon but if it isn't true, then who cares.

I don't play Pokemon (so seeing as I'm not already used to I don't have a biased opinion), but Phantomb sounds better to me.  

I read 'Pantomb' and instantly thought it was a good idea

Haha, could of became a creepy pasta meme with that name!....still duno how it's not one yet tho o.o;

 

1,800 souls and likely not too happy ones...o-o; nuff said creepy stuff lol
