It helped Platinum train for her upcoming Gym challenge against Gardenia. With her Psychic abilities, she was able to seal Tru 's Razor Leaf alongside Prinplup 's Water attack and used them to save Rad Rickshaw , inadvertently getting Diamond , Pearl , and Platinum a set of bicycles.

Spiritomb was later used against Cyrus , where she defeated his Honchkrow , but was then defeated by Weavile. Spiritomb seems to be based on a Jibakurei, a spirit bound to a single place, or a Deildegast , a Norwegian folklore spirit that is forced to haul around a boundary stone as punishment for moving one while it was alive.

A bell is rung times to chase away the temptations in order to achieve Nirvana. The wisps of spirits surrounding its face also resemble a set of prayer beads, a possible reference to Japa.

In the first chapter of the novel, a foolish army marshal orders the removal of a stone monument that had been guarded by monks for generations. Doing so releases the spirits of demons sealed therein.

These souls, having atoned for their sins, become the Stars of Destiny. They are reincarnated centuries later as outlaws, the heroes of the novel. Page actions Article Discussion View source History.
