Hello! Happy Halloween! What is your favorite dark and ghost type Pokémon?

And what do you think the creepiest enemy or place in zelda is?

Hi! Happy late Halloween to you!

I'll go ahead and list my favorite dark-type, ghost-type, and dual dark and ghost-type Pokemon, since I'm slightly confused by the wording and I'll just go ahead and cover both interpretations.

My favorite dark-type Pokemon is Zoroark! I'm personally a fan of dark-type Pokemon, despite not actually using them during the story of Pokemon games, but yeah, I really like Zoroark. It's got a cool design, the shapeshifting is neat, and I think it's got a good shiny color palette. I use it a bit in X and Y, along with a handful of other dark-types I consider to be some of my favorite.

As for a favorite ghost-type, it's got to be Aegislash. I'm not all too familiar with its shield form, since I play Pokemon only using attack moves, but I really like how it switches between the shield and sword forms. I don't think I've used it as much as Zoroark, but I do think I might've used it in an old playthough of X or Y.

Sableye is my favorite dual ghost/dark-type- it's a funny little guy with a funny little mega evolution and a funny little shiny palette. I wouldn't actually consider it my favorite ghost or dark type, but it's high on those lists.

As for your last question, I’ll pick a creepy place- any creepy Zelda enemies I give will be the same you’ll get if you ask anyone else, and I wouldn’t mind thinking back to the places in the games I’ve played, anyways.

Some that are creepy but not the creepiest to me... the dark palace in a Link Between Worlds used to scare me a lot, especially back when I was very scared of the dark. I’m pretty sure it creeped me out way more than skull woods did- probably that mixture of the darkness mechanic (which is really cool, by the way) and the music.

Nothing in Breath of the Wild really creeped me out, and the same goes for both versions of Link’s Awakening... not much in Skyward Sword creeped me out, but both the lanayru mining facility and the ancient cistern have always felt off to me, the former probably because of the timeshift mechanic (and my general dislike of that dungeon) and the latter because of its lower level and the music itself. Something about its music, while having a soothing tone to it, definitely implies the darkness of that dungeon’s lower level.

I think, then, Majora’s Mask and Ocarina of Time have the creepiest areas to me. Both of their dungeons all have unnerving feelings to them, but I think the winner for creepiest area to me might be the stone tower temple; it’s not as much scary, but just... creepy throughout with the flipping mechanic and almost all of the rooms being open to the sky so that you can see the moon and the passing of time... it’s just all around a creepy dungeon. Places like Ocarina of Time’s well and the shadow temple are similarly creepy, but they lean a bit too much into it, while the stone tower temple is just the right amount of feeling... wrong enough to be creepy. It’s a good dungeon!

#asks #zeldanamikaze #ough i need to replay majora's mask. fun fact i bought it twice first time i was younger and couldnt find the first dungeon so i gave up #but yeah happy belated halloween. i was confused by the wording of the pokemon question so just answered both interpretations lol #cuz like. lots of creepy places in loz yknow? ph has some spooky spots so does botw and la #but i think aside from oot and mm. link between worlds maybe be oddly creepy in places for me #bc it was the first zelda game i played in full #so when i played through i was young and creeped out easily and even tho im not as scared of the dark or anything #i still have a lingering fear of the dark palace lol. #but yeah stone tower temple. close second was great bay but thats bc of some uncomfortable associations with it #long story short i played that section on an airplane next to a guy watching movies that he shouldnt have watched next to a child #but there is something very eerie about the great bay section. the music the stuff going on it probably the creepiest part #aside from stone tower #which wins just because of extra stuff like time limit stress and just some daylight horror feelings. idk #majoras mask is unsurprisingly the creepiest game to me. oot just has spooky areas but thats kinda it #uhhh dark type pokemon are fun. ghost types are fine. i dont really favor either? fire types have always been my favorite #but in xy for complicated reasons i trained up a few monotype parties for fun and included zoroark and sableye in the dark type team #ty for the ask! #pokemon #legend of zelda #loz
