Lumiose City Ghost Girl
Welcome to the first Mandibuzz Unsolved mystery where I, Bianca, and my partner Blue will tackle one of the most popular urban legends of the Kalos region, the Lumiose City Ghost Girl.
For those who don't know, the Lumiose City ghost is said to haunt the second floor of an ordinary office building on the North Boulevard strip.
Many accounts of the ghost follow a similar pattern. Flickering lights, coldness, and an apparition of a ghostly girl telling visitors that, "No, you're not the one," before disappearing. The girl is described as having long, shaggy black hair, pale skin, and long black dress.
I think we saw 5 hex girls matching that exact description in the past month. Man... oh god Bianca, the ghosts are multiplying!
Oh hush! Anyways...
One visitor claims, "It was like the world went dead silent. I couldn't hear the sounds from the street or the thrum of electricity, only my own heartbeat in my ears as a chill shot up my spine. All I knew is that I wasn't alone."
Despite this, most people report that they didn't feel a particular malevolence coming from the spirit. While most talk about the terror they felt, some accounts claim they felt a sudden sense of calmness wash over them, like they knew there was nothing to fear.
The questions no one seems to be able to answer is, "Who is she? And who is she looking for?"
More under the cut.
While Lumiose City is rich with history, this little to say about the office building. The building was constructed in the early 1920s and rented out. Over the course of many decades, it's housed a multitude of companies, and none of them have ever had a reported death inside the building.
Talks about the office being haunted started around the 1950s, most accounts following similar threads as above.
People who work in the building talk about how they 2nd floor is mostly used as a storage space, cubicles sitting empty unless the use is absolutely necessary. They report hearing footsteps above them and lights flickering.
I mean, I think we need to acknowledge that it's an old building. Maybe they need to take a look at their electrical work.
I mean, that's a possibility, but before we get into the theories, what do you think, Blue?
Well... you already know that I don't believe in ghosts. It's just a rumor that's spun out of control.
You don't think the legend stemmed from something?
I think people love a good spooky story.
Unbelievable.
Well, theory #1:
Murdered Lover
One of the more popular urban legends about this ghost is that she was a teen girl meeting up with a crush after school. Her parents didn't allow dating, so they'd sneak up to the unused 2nd floor of the office to spend time together. Only, it turned out that she wasn't alone and someone else was using it as their hiding spot. The poor young girl was murdered and now haunts the space, still waiting for her lover to show up.
Is there any evidence backing this up? I thought you said that there were no reported deaths in the building.
I'll be honest: not really. Though if someone WAS murdered, don't you think the building owner would cover it up?
Fair enough. Does she even have a name?
Maria is a popular one, but so are Camille and Anna.
What about the killer?
Well, there actually WERE a handful of serial killers in the Kalos region at this time. Lumious City specifically having Honedge Slasher. There is in fact a victim named Camille! But she was murdered in the South Boulevard.
So... just a spooky tale?
Potentially.
Theory #2
Vengeful spirit
Now the ghost is an adult woman going by the name of Charlotte Dubois who worked on the first floor. The rumor goes is that she was blatantly favored by management and was the office tattle tale. Out of anger, or perhaps because she was going to report something big, one of her coworkers murdered her after she stepped off the elevator. She now haunts the space trying to find her killer.
Any evidence for this one?
Actually, there is in fact evidence of a Charlotte Dubois working in this building! But not evidence of one ever actually living in the city.
What???
Yeah! Employment records say she exists, but there's no evidence of anyone with that name actually living within the city. No death record either, aside from a woman sharing the name who died in 2013.
Spooky.
Theory #3
A curse
There's a rumor that the ghost isn't actually real at all and is just a curse placed upon a building by an angry customer. There was a short lived insurance company that scammed thousands from its customers on 1952. It is said one elderly woman got nothing after the death of her husband and was so engaged she cursed the building to scare away any new costumers.
Well that seems kinda silly.
How so?
Well, nearly every story says she only appears on the second floor, and that the ghost isn't particularly malevolent. Why curse ONLY the second floor?
Well, two floors were actually owned separately during that year. And she wanted to scare away business, not hurt people.
Hm. Fair enough.
And final theory #4
Pokémon having a goof
And that's pretty much it. Just some Pokémon having a blast trolling people.
Now THIS is the kinda theories I like!!! We love little guys having a goof.
Although there's no proof any Pokémon calls that office space home, I must add. People have gone in there in search of a Pokémon and have come up empty handed
As opposed to people finding concrete proof that this ghost is real.
Shush!!!
There's honestly an ENDLESS amount of theories as to why this ghost haunts the building, many of which I could spend hours going on about, but these are the biggest, and in my opinion, the most likely.
I would ask you what you think but I already know...
Well, if it's not people faking for attention, then WOO Pokémon having a goof, baby!!!
What about you?
I'm honestly partial to the Charlotte Dubois theory. I think it's odd that she only exists on employment records... seems like maybe there was something people tried to cover up.
But in the end this case will likely remain unsolved.

For Blue: What about, like, Groudon and Kyogre? Those two legendaries had a pretty significant and undeniable impact on Hoenn not that long ago. Do you believe in them?
I feel like I should say now: I don't think all legendary Pokémon are fake! I just think most people are lying about their experiences with legendary Pokémon. If they're real, they're rare, and I see dozens of people every day claiming they own one or that they have a special bond with one. It's not realistic, and people love lying for clout.

Mostly a question for Blue- How is it that you stay strong in your disbelief when there are so damn many historical (and modern!) records of certain "deity" Pokemon existing (i.e. Giratina)? I'm pretty sure a good chunk of them have accounts on Rotomblr.
Quite easily in fact! You mean to tell me that all powerful Pokémon who supposedly created the world, control the elements, ect. Have tiny little fingers to type up posts on Rotomblr . com? Please. I don't believe for a single second that there's any legendary Pokémon on here, do you guys hear yourselves? They're just children role-playing, you're not supposed to take them seriously.
Rotom, porygon, or a text to speech reader could help make posts!
Oh be fr. It's so unbelievably ridiculous 🙄 Every handful of years, there's a new hoax. Soon as everyone stops caring about the old one, suddenly there's a new legendary Pokémon sighting with the shakiest and blurriest images and videos around. Why does this evidence only exist as soon as we have the technology to fake it? Sus as hell. When I was a kid, it was literally just old fairy tales and murals to go off of.
I'm willing to believe these Pokémon might be real, but I don't buy that suddenly within the past 20 years that these super rare Pokémon are supposedly everywhere and every 12 y/o has personally met one.

Welcome to Mandibuzz Unsolved! Where I, Bianca (she/her), and my co-host Blue (she/they/he), talk about the spookiest and bizarre unsolved mysteries on the internet.
While I'm a believer of all the paranormal and strange- some of you have to be lying, Giratina isn't real.
... my partner isn't.
These mysteries can range from chatting about mythical Pokémon that may or may not exist to unsolved murder mysteries.
This blog will contain potentially disturbing content. Subjects like death, descriptions of violence, kidnapping and abuse, will come up on this blog. Please block tags accordingly!
Pkmn Unsolved Dire (graphic deaths, gore)
Pkmn Unsolved High (kidnapping, odd deaths, stalking)
Pkmn Unsolved Medium (disappearances, distressing situations)
There's bound to be overlap between the given examples; they're broad so people can tag block if they wish to see only more lighthearted stuff! We will still be using warning tags as per usual.
Sometimes we'll just by talking about legends behind certain Pokémon and tall tales, won't be all gloom! But view discretion is otherwise advised.
If there's any case you'd like to see us discuss, please send us an ask! We'd love to gather up information.
(OOC CUT)
Hey! While this blog is running as if there's two people, there is currently just one adult mod (24). I'm open to adding another mod 🙏
Blog will be primarily in Bianca's words, but anything in blue text is... well, Blue! Bianca and Blue have zero relation to canon rivals.
Please try to keep with the fun with the blog! If Blue says Mew isn't real and you say "you're an idiot, here's a picture of my pet mew" I'm probably going to ignore you. "Mew is totally real I saw it when I was five" on the other hand is fine.
Other than all that, please feel free to send me fake cases for me to make things up about! You're also free to go "Did you hear about this theory?" And add onto things :D
You can also just question Bianca and Blue as characters.
