Yeah I agree with you on the song. No matter what version of the song i listen to, it seems to give me the chills everytime. Lavender Town is also one of my favorite towns in the Kanto region since i'm a fan of horror and whatnot. I also find the Channelers (The trainers you fight in the Pokemon Tower) to be one of my favorite trainer classes since they tie into the creepy atmosphere of the town so well. For example, it's implied that they are possesed by the ghosts living in the Pokemon Tower. They also give some insight into Japanese culture as well. What do I mean by this? Well, the Channelers themselves are said to be depicted as Shinto priestesses. The item they carry (The Gohei) is used to help them channel spirits. Because of this, i became curious. As i was in the Pokemon Tower, I was wondering whether or not the channelers got possessd voluntarily or involuntarily. Then I started thinking that the possessions may have been linked to the unrested spirit of Cubone's Mother.

Man, Lavender Town does have alot of untapped potential for theories surrounding the possesions. It's too bad this Wikia doesn't accept Pokepastas anymore.
