The year was 2004; I was a pretentious, egotistic young lad in the 4th grade. My whole life had revolved around Pokémon, and “Pokémon: Ruby and Sapphire” versions had just released. I was obsessed with getting my hands on Ruby version. I myself never had the money to get it, but luckily my friend Josh got both Ruby and Sapphire and chose to go the route of Sapphire because he got tired of Ruby after a month of playing it, although from the start.
I thought it as eerie that he was just giving the game away to me for free. However, I didn’t care; I took the game, started a new file and noticed something really weird about the game right off the bat. I didn’t start out with Professor Birch’s introduction into the world of Pokémon and the game. Instead, I started out in the oddest place ever, the place where all my misfortunes with Ruby version started, the tomb in Route 143 where you go to awaken and unlock all three Regis.
I didn’t know what was going on. I thought it was a glitch, so I just walked around the oddly noiseless and eerie cave, looking for an answer. As I wandered to the front of the tomb and tried to look for clues, I read the writings on the wall and saw an alarming message suddenly pop up on the last writing I examined.
The message said “The future of your sanity will be determined here, enjoy the ride while it lasts, Joe.”
This scared the living shit out of me because I was literally going to choose Joe as my character’s name seeing as it’s my own name. But it doesn’t stop there, I was expecting maybe now to get the introduction in to the game, but instead it just showed me in my house in Little Root, and when I went to check my character’s ID card, I was already Joe. How in the hell could this have happened? How did the game know I was going to be Joe? This deeply puzzled and disturbed my developing and fragile 10 year old mind. However, I paid no attention to it. Instead, I thought, “Fuck it, this must be something Josh did to mess with me.”
I continued on playing the game, everything was going great. I was one of the top in school; I had beaten all 8 gyms, conquered the Elite Four, found a couple shiny Pokémon in the game, and was able to destroy all my pals in battles. My whole life revolved around the game. I was attached to it in a way that I should have never been; the game meant a lot to me and it barely ever left my side. I took it everywhere I went, ignoring my surroundings to train my Pokémon. After catching Groudon, Rayquaza, and Latios just as all my other friends, I wondered:
“What’s the next step? What’s the next level I can go to now?”
Being such a self-centered, attention loving child, I just wanted to one-up all my friends and get the Pokémon they didn’t have. That’s when I decided to go and do some research, when I came across a website with a full guide on how to catch all three of the legendary Regis which nobody else had in my school. I was ecstatic as I read up on how to catch them and realized how easy it was, and how I would now be hands down the best and most envied Pokémon player in my school.
I immediately jumped on the project of catching the Regis. I decided that I would gather all the necessary supplies; Potions, Great Balls, etc. to catch the Regis, and I would do it in the morning in front of everybody to make them curious as to what I was doing. I was going to leave them all in the dark about what I was doing, and leave them curious and craving as to what I was going to go after next. I started in the morning “breakfast period” before school started; all my friends crowded around me at the breakfast table, fixated on my Gameboy SP, trying to figure out just what I was doing. They all asked me questions, to which I would respond “you’ll find out soon enough.” Well as it turns out, I didn’t have enough time to actually go and unlock the Regis during breakfast period. I had made it to Pacifidlog Town, right near the area you dive into to get to the Regis. I figured it was no big deal, I would just simply go home and unlock them and capture all three by myself then show up to school the next day with them and show everybody the three Pokémon that nobody else had.
I finished up my average and boring school day, looking forward only to when I got home to catch the Regi trio for my bragging rights. The school bell rang, I darted out the school and jogged a mile back to my little quaint apartment, eager as ever to play Ruby version. I got home, got a snack and darted to my room and turned on my Gameboy SP.
This is when things started to get odd, and this is where all my misfortunes started to arise. When I had tried to first turn my Gameboy on, it simply wouldn’t work. It kept giving me static when I tried to play Ruby version. After trying to restart my Gameboy for a sixth time, I saw a message that I should have followed. In static I could make out a bold “NO.” I should have figured to give up there, but my mind thought nothing of it. I thought it was just a simple glitch. I got my Gameboy to work after that creepy sixth try, and began my quest on Pokémon Ruby to catch all three Regis; Regirock, Regice and Registeel. I ventured over to Route 143 and saw where I had to dive to get into the Regi tomb. I dove down and got into the cavern, and that’s when nostalgia and a feeling of undoubted fear had hit me hard like a train. I had been here before; this is where the game had started me off! But why? I found this so odd, considering my friends didn’t believe me when I had told them and they told me how they started the game off.
I was pretty scared and a bit shaky at this point. Was this why Josh got rid of the game? Did he know something I didn’t? At this point I started to wonder if something haunted this game and clearly did not want me to catch the three Regis. However, that sounded so silly! Why would a spirit haunt a game, right? I “overcame” the fear momentarily (although still shaking) and went up to the tomb and followed the instructions given to me on the website to awaken the Regis. Everything ran smoothly and according to the website until I tried using an escape rope to get out of the tomb. Then the thing that nearly gave me a heart attack appeared: the message that was trying to warn me of the misfortunes and mental damage ahead.
The message read “YAST WAYA ROMF ETH SACEV EBOFRE OYU RAE ADED.”
I nearly jumped out of my skin at the first sight of it, “What the fuck is this?!” I thought. My mind raced and I left the message there, looking at it puzzled as ever. I thought that maybe I was supposed to decipher a secret meaning behind the message that would help me capture the Regis. I darted across my room to my backpack and whipped out a pencil and piece of paper and then proceeded to write the sketchy message down. I exited the cave after writing the message down; it simply just teleported me out of the cave as an escape rope normally would. I sat and looked blankly at the scrambled message for a good five minutes, and that’s when the secret message had finally hit me like a pile of bricks. Out of those letters given to me in the message I was able to unscramble the following: “STAY AWAY FROM THE CAVES BEFORE YOU ARE DEAD.”
This message had shocked me to death and scared the shit out of me. “Why in the fuck are they putting this kind of message into a children’s game?” I thought. This made no sense, I knew now that there was no possible way that my cartridge was normal. I now suspected more than ever of an odd and evil spirit in my cartridge, trying to warn me to not catch the Regis. I wasn’t about to pay something like that any attention though, I didn’t give a shit about it. All I wanted was to get the Regis and prove myself superior to my fellow friends. I ventured out to catch my first Regi, Registeel, whose tomb was near the Safari Zone. I entered the tomb, and I caught Registeel my second throw of a Great Ball, no challenge or questions asked. I found this so strange, why the hell was it so damn easy to catch Registeel? Why didn’t the “spirit” haunting this game try to prevent me from catching him? After all, it did tell me to stay away from the caves before I died. Oh well I figured, might as well not bitch over it being easy to catch them, right?
Next I figured I would advance to Regice. I headed to route 105 and looked around for the tomb. Once I found it I got inside and saw him. As I approached him I was scared. Would something happen now that I’m trying to catch another one? My heart raced and pounded as I awoke him. The battle started and I threw a great ball instantly, and caught him after a good 16 tries. I knew now I was safe, nothing had happened at all after going for and catching 2 of the 3 Regis. “Maybe I just read the message wrong,” I thought. “Maybe I’m actually safe now.” I couldn’t have been any more wrong. I let all my guard down at this point as I headed towards Regirock’s tomb on Route 111. I arrived at the tomb, it looked different this time, a bit misty almost, I was puzzled as to how any mist was in the desert.
However, I approached the tomb my world was rocked. The mist faded and then an extremely realistic looking ghostly figure floated across the screen and approached my character. The figure said “Did you enjoy the ride, Joe? Because now it’s my turn to ride.” And my character instantly entered the tomb. I was beyond terrified now, my head raced and my mind felt like it was melting. My body felt numb and it was almost as if I couldn’t leave my bed or shut my Gameboy off, even if I wanted to. Whatever the fuck was in this cartridge had complete control of my mind and body it seemed, and now he was going to fuck with me and scare me as much as he could. I don’t even recall what I did to get to Regirock, it felt like someone else did it for me.
I do however vividly remember the battle with Regirock. It was too easy, I threw a great ball and captured it first try. After this I knew my world was about to come an end. The realistic ghost figured approached me right after catching him and said “I WARNED YOU. STAY AWAY FROM THE CAVES OR DIE. YOU DIDN’T STAY AWAY FROM THE CAVES, AND NOW YOU DIE, JOE.” After that was said all sorts of weird shit started to happen in the game. People were dropping dead and dying whenever I would see them, buildings would melt and droop down whenever I went by them, the game was swirling around with odd and crazy colors I had never seen contrasted together. This felt like a fucking nightmare.
I had no control of my body, I could think but not control my movement. I knew something had a grasp on me. This was pure torture, my young mind didn’t want to look at all the weird and fucked up shit happening. I was killing people left and right as I passed them. I started to get used to it after ten minutes of this spirit trying to fuck with my head. Then that’s when things got much worse. Now the games creepy shit got even more intense.
All the figures I would pass by looked exactly like real people. I would get into battles with them, but then my Pokémon would turn into these vicious-looking mutant creatures and just rip apart the entire body of the trainer I was battling, often even doing disgusting things like eating their entire face off, or mutilating limbs or eating their intestines. At this point I was starting to cry but I couldn’t shout at all. I had to sit here and look at all this fucked up shit, I couldn’t turn away from it no matter how hard I tried to break free. And now on top of it all, flashes of random gore would start to come across the screen every 25 seconds, and would stay there for another 20 seconds. Gross, disgusting images of people being ripped apart and murdered in the worst ways imaginable were now sitting on my screen.
I couldn’t help but start to cry like crazy at this point, this went on for literally 2 hours. After that everything went back to normal, and the figure came at me one last time. It said, “See what happens when you go in the caves Joe? You leave the Regis alone; I’ll leave your sanity alone.” At this point it faded, and I noticed I had none of the Regis.
I didn’t care, the fucking nightmare was finally over, I had control of my body and I took the game out of my cartridge slot and snapped it in half immediately. There was no way I was going to play that fucking nightmare mess of a game ever again. To this day my mind is fucked from that experience, I still experience the gore flashes, and I have terrible and vivid nightmares of passionate murder and gore. I’m fucked and mentally scarred my whole life, all because my ego overpowered my common sense.
Never again will I accept a free video game from a friend. I wonder to this day if Josh saw what I saw. I tried questioning him about any weird things in the game, but he just denies it all. I don’t doubt if he’s going just as fucking crazy inside as I am nowadays, all because of a fucking Pokémon game. I have of course contemplated suicide, but it’s just not worth it, perhaps one day I’ll meet someone else with a similar story to mine, someone I can sympathize with and that can help me overcome the mental beating I had taken on that day.
