I, Gengar: The Shadow Sovereign

I, Gengar: The Shadow Sovereign"
(A First-Person Confessional Monologue)

"Heh... hehehe..."
When you hear this laughter echoing through your walls at midnight – run. Not that it'll help.

I am Gengar. The embodiment of shadows. The architect of nightmares. Let me tell you, as a Ghost/Poison-type who's haunted this world for centuries, how delightfully... fragile your reality truly is.

【Origins: Born From Curses】

The moon was bleeding purple that night.
I emerged in the Cursed Chamber atop Pokémon Tower, woven from the grief of trainers mourning their departed partners. Old Tom the night watchman's face when he saw me coalescing from the gloom... priceless.

"Arceus above! This Haunter's evolving!" His flashlight trembled across my materializing form.
My claws tore through the evolutionary light first, followed by my signature grin. "Geeeeeengar~" The icy breath I whispered down his collar gave him a coronary. Best laugh I'd had in decades.

【Powers: Fear Is My Banquet】

Shadow Ball? Amateur hour. True artistry involves:

• Casting Curse to make my face appear on Lily of Valley Island's midnight broadcasts

• Scratching messages into Celadon City mirrors using Shadow Claw

• Swiping Gym Leaders' Poké Balls during blackouts caused by my Night Shade

But nothing compares to Dream Eater. Those 3AM panic attacks humans get? That's me savoring their terror like fine wine.

【My White Whale: The Boy in Red】

Red. The only trainer whose stare made my ectoplasm curdle.
When his Pikachu's Thunderbolt charred half my body on Mt. Silver? As he turned away, I slipped a Muk into his backpack. Revenge is a dish best served eternally.

【A Trade Secret: I Know Your Pokémon】

That "playful shadow" your Eevee chased yesterday? The "draft" that ate your Berries last night? The "static" that ruined your haircut?
All me.

Your scientists' explanations for paranormal activity? Chef's kiss. Keep rationalizing – I live for your desperate denial.

【Final Warning】

Look at your closet right now.
