3. Lavender town causes uneasiness on players.

2. Xatu can't escape the Horror premonitions.

In its Pokedex description, it is said that Xatu stays still and quiet because, "it is seeing both the past and future at the same time." Not only is this terrifying because of the amount of stimulation it's experiencing, but this means that Xatu can see everything horrible that ever happened, and unspeakable terrors that are yet to happen. This also means that Xatu has seen your death. And all it can do is watch and wait. Incredibly creepifying

1. Pokémon and Human Language

The theory says that humans living alongside Pokémon like Charmander heard the creature making a call that sounded like "charmander," and applied the sounds to the physical features of the Pokémon. So, in this instance, the word "char" came to represent something blackened by fire, and "-mander" became a suffix that describes reptilian animals.
