The Curse of Ninetales is a 1000 year old legend told by Whiscash. According to this legend, a greedy trainer once entered a sacred dungeon, known to contain many rare Pokémon. The trainer encountered a Ninetales, and crudely grabbed one of its tails. This was meant to give the trainer a curse. However, his Gardevoir took the curse, doing its duty as a Gardevoir by protecting its master. This startled the Ninetales. The Trainer, horrified, then fled the scene, fearing the curse. Ninetales then told Gardevoir that the trainer would one day become a Pokémon. This would bring on many natural disasters.

Gengar, eavesdropping on the player's conversation with Xatu, told the public that the player was that trainer, and he was causing the natural disasters. The public were shocked, and chased the player and his companion out of town. However, Ninetales then told that the player (and team A.C.T) was definitely NOT the cursed trainer. Gengar was exposed as a liar, and was then chased out of town himself.
