Scariest Pokemon/Things in Pokemon. Part 1.

1. Parasect
Many people do not know about this one. Paras is a cute little bug with mushrooms on its back. It also has a gleam in its eyes. Who knows, maybe it's looking forward to evolving. But it clearly shouldn't. See the mushrooms on its back? They're parasites. (Hence Paras' name, derived from parasite.) When it evolves, the mushrooms completely take it over, thus making Parasect a zombie. Look at its pure white eyes. Don't believe me? Let's have a look at its Pokedex entry.
''A host-parasite pair in which the parasite mushroom has taken over the host bug. Prefers damp places.'' From Red, Blue and LeafGreen.
Or another..
''The bug host is drained of energy by the mushrooms on its back. They appear to do all the thinking.'' From Yellow.
How about this one?
''A mushroom grown larger than the host’s body controls PARASECT. It scatters poisonous spores.'' From Diamond, Platinum, and all Generation 5 games.
Well, that one was pretty explicit. How about another?
''It stays mostly in dark, damp places, the preference not of the bug, but of the big mushroom on its back.'' From HeartGold.
And when there's nothing left to take from the bug?
''When nothing’s left to extract from the bug, the mushrooms on its back leave spores on the bug’s egg.'' From Crystal.
So the mushroom stays on the Pokemon for a while, takes it over, and then, when the Pokemon is near death, it scatters spores on the Pokemon's eggs so that mushrooms will take over every Paras and Parasect in the world. Wow, that was nice.

2. Lavender Town
How could I possibly do one of these without including Lavender Town? It's like Pokemon without Pikachu. Kay, so basically Lavender Town is all about death. Yes, death. There is a tower in the town called Lavender Tower, and it is just as creepy.
The tower is full of creepy girls called Channelers. They must have all smashed their heads really hard, because they say things like "Ke Ke Ke Ke", or, ''I was possessed!''
Add that to the White Hand and Buried Alive, and the earsplitting music, you got one creepy place.
