    Created from the darkness that makes up the space between spaces, referred to by researchers based in Vale as the Shadowlands, these Pokégirls are made up of a sort of ether that theoretically makes up the human soul. Sukebe made these thinking they could act as unseen spies, but when the humans began to tame Dark types, they became ineffectual, and he gave up on them. They disappeared into their own little world until recently, a dark spiritual reflection of the real world.
    One of their abilities is to see how alive someone is. This translates into an ability to see the aura of a person or creature which reflects their emotional state. Their Deathsight allows them to see how much entropy exists within a subject. If someone has a terminal disease, the Wraith can see dark markings that signify the symptoms of the disease. It is also possible to see the “Death marks” on a subject a few minutes before their death. If someone is about to get shot, they might develop a dark spot where the bullet will go. If they are about to drown, they may develop black markings on the skin above their lungs. If someone is about to get put through a wood-chipper, they might develop intersecting black marks along their entire body.
    These Pokégirls can become visible at will and when they are visible they resemble normal human girls aside from the fact that you can see right through them normally. When they solidify using their “Embody” enhancement, they can interact with the physical world for about an hour at a time, after which they must return to being incorporeal. They have a decent bust, averaging around a C-cup, their features are easily recognizable, as the only colors they have are shades of gray, and their eyes always have large dark rings around them. Some look like corpses, but most resemble the human norm.
    When not solid, they feed on human and Pokégirl emotions. They use this energy to fuel themselves and heal damage sustained in combat. If they take enough damage to actually hurt them, they instantly become incorporeal. (This doesn’t happen during Taming, curiously enough, so certain fetishes are still doable.)
    Their minds are quite interesting, as they are technically two beings in one. One side of their mind is relatively normal, while the other half is dark and evil. It’s unknown why Sukebe made them this way, but it is known that the darker side is far more destructive. It assumed that he gave them that side in an attempt to give them a better chance in a fight. Wraiths who have allowed themselves to be studied have shown that the dark side of their minds can take over for short periods of time, and if they stay that way for too long they evolve into Polterkisseds.
    A Wraith’s disposition often reflects what kind of emotions they “eat.” If a Wraith is raised in a very angry environment, they are usually quite angry themselves. If a Wraith is raised in a caring, loving environment, they will usually be very happy and contented at all times.
    The general starting mentality is kind and affectionate. Their diets generally influence this only a little. Anger will usually translate to being more direct in their attempts while Joy will usually amplify their affectionate nature. Their natures are only affectionate to their Tamer. They have a mischevious side, and take great joy in scaring other humans and Pokégirls. Their Harem-sisters only get preferential treatment by the fact that the Wraith will generally think twice about how their Tamer will think of the situation before popping out of Phase right in front of them and scaring them. They get along with Vampires and other ghost types, since they can touch them normally, but they hate psychic types whose power they fear in both their minds.
    Their taming preferences will usually reflect that of the people they usually feed off of. If they feed on a Psi-Dyke, their tastes will lean towards women, while if they feed off of a Cockadiddle, their preferences will lean towards heterosexuality. Generally the Wraith will choose a preferred person to feed on, generally one whose usual mood fits with their preferred diet. This diet will generally affect how they evolve.
    Their feral state will generally reduce them to a simple apparition. They retain their forms, but only ever become visible, never solid. They generally act like the old ghost tales, saying random things like “Where’s my love?” or “Who has my ring?” or better yet, “Who stole my lover?” They moan and scream in the night and scare the pants off of youngsters. Other ghost types generally think they’re rather pathetic in this state and if feral they will try to destroy them. If they’re tame, they’ll generally ask their tamers to ‘catch and tame the bitches’ so they’ll shut up. Usually, due to their ‘solidity problem’ they’ll have to help their tamer by bringing the Wraith out of their Phase.
    Their unique mental make-up makes them extremely resistant to detection by psychics. But this doesn’t help defend against psychic attack, in fact it is a severe detriment. The attack is routed to BOTH minds, doing double damage against them and causing them to loose whatever focus they had on being solid. Being incorporeal allows them to escape, but does not stop a psychic attack from hitting them again if the psychic can sense them.
    Their darker minds are often the reason why most tamers don’t have Wraiths or their evolutions in their Harems. The darker mind is quite loyal to the Tamer, but it twists that loyalty into something selfish and cruel. The darker mind will often try to keep the Tamer all to herself without regard to the libido’s of her Harem sisters. Some Wraiths have said that the “Shadow Mind” sometimes tells them to kill their Harem sisters in hopes of getting more attention from their Tamer. One incident that gave these Pokégirls a bad name was of a relatively weak-willed Wraith let her Shadow Mind take over and kill her Tamers favorite Lover in the hopes of getting more Taming from him. She was subjected to two level 5 Taming cycles, one for each mind.
    The Shadow Mind can take over only once in a great while, an event which depends on the willpower of the Wraith. If the Shadow Mind manages to keep control for longer than a day at a time, they evolve into a Polterkissed.    Efforts are being made by Researchers to try and control the Shadow Mind in an attempt to increase their Harem viability.
    Threshold cases are rare, and usually have some ghost-type in their family line.
