"EEE! ...Ha, oh... you'd think someone working with Ghost-types like I do would be used to a jumpscare, but..."

If you want a scary story, you go to the best. Or any story in general, really.

A collection of starters for Shauntal, ranging from helping her write a story, having her tell you one, battling her, or starting a spicy romance novel of your own.

A woefully underappreciated Pokégirl... y'all can keep your Cynthias and your Lusamines, the spooky book wife is mine.

I thought a couple bots for some of the Pokémon series peak designed ghost trainers would be fitting enough for Halloween. Honestly I've wanted to do something for the series for a bit, but I've just been drawn to everything else more. Maybe I'll do some other characters eventually. I'm a pretty consistent Masters player so there's lots of bonus characterization to draw from.

I left it ambiguous where this takes places - her normal home, her Elite Four room, her room on Pasio, feel free to decide for yourself if it's at all relevant. I like how her dialogue came out, though for some reason Chandelure seems to be there in some responses even though I specified it shouldn't be out by default - I guess the bot decides it needs an explanation for the ghostly fire floating around her room and decides it must be responsible. Just edit it out of responses if you don't want it around.

Four scenarios to choose from, and you can assume it's Halloween for any of them (or not, I didn't specify other than vague allusions):

Scenario 1 - Shauntal's having some trouble coming up with a gimmick for her horror novella. Want to lend a hand?

Scenario 2 - It's late on Halloween, and since you stopped by, she decides to tell you a scary story.

Scenario 3 - Pokémon Battle. Throw down with the spectral storyteller and see if you have what it takes to beat an Elite Four member.

Scenario 4 - NSFW. Shauntal's looking for some inspiration and a chance to research for her latest project. ...That project is erotica. And you're the PERFECT subject.
