[[Category:{{{type1}}}-type Pokémon|{{{ndex}}}]] Spiritomb (Japanese: ミカルゲ Mikaruge) is a dual-type Ghost/Dark Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Spiritomb resembles a swirling, purple vortex with green, varrying in size orbs of light circling the face. It has a green mouth with a crooked expression and two green eyes shaped like half-crescents. One of the eyes has a spiral-shaped pupil. Spiritomb is attached to a light-brown stone, the Odd Keystone, in which it was trapped after doing bad deeds 500 years ago. It is apparently composed of 108 separate, yet bound-together, malevolent spirits.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Spiritomb's abilities are similar to its fellow Dark/Template:Type2, Sableye. However, Spiritomb is much stronger than Sableye both offensively and defensively, while being slightly slower. Spiritomb's movepool lacks most of Sableye's attacking options. However, Spiritomb can use Hyper Beam and Giga Impact, Destiny Bond, Imprison, Grudge, and Ominous Wind. Like most Ghost-types, it can also use Will-O-Wisp.
Behavior
Spiritomb are thought to be evil Pokémon. They tend to go on destructive rampages like Gyarados. Spiritomb also tend to speak with a hive-mind tendency.
Habitat
Spiritomb are entrapped in Odd Keystones and must be brought to the Hallowed Tower to be awakened. Some, as indicated in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2, also live in caves.

Trivia
- Spiritomb is the second out of two Pokémon in National Dex order to have no weakness. The first is Sableye.
- Due to this, and the fact that Spiritomb has higher stats than Sableye, it is common for hackers to make a Spiritomb with Wonder Guard.
- Spiritomb has been shown levitating, but cannot have the ability.
- In Pokémon Diamond, Spiritomb's entry states that it was formed from 108 spirits. Incidentally, Spiritomb's number in the Sinnoh Pokédex is 108, its Defense and Special Defense base values are 108, and it weighs exactly 108.0 kilograms.
Origin
Spiritomb is based on a Jibakurei, a spirit bound to a single place. It also based on a Buddhist tradition performed on New Year's Eve in Japan. A bell is rung 108 times to chase away the 108 temptations in order to achieve nirvana.
Similarly, the provenance of Spiritomb probably arises from the Chinese novel, Water Margin, whose opening chapter begins with the release of 108 spirits. This draws heavy parallels with the release of Spiritomb, comprised of 108 spirits according to the Pokédex, from the Odd Keystone.
Name origin
Spiritomb's name is derived from spirit and tomb. Its Japanese name may come from 甕 mika, meaning jar or urn, referring to it being a container of souls; and 軽石 karuishi, pumice, or 御影石 mikageishi, granite, referring to its base, the Odd Keystone.
In other languages
- German: Kryppuk - From Krypta (crypt) and Spuk (spook).
- French: Spiritomb
- Korean: 화강돌 Hwagangdol
- Chinese: 花岩怪
