Once the Odd Keystone is placed in the Hallowed Tower, players must then venture into the Grand Underground, where they must encounter 32 or more unique characters.
After talking to all 32 characters, touching the Hallowed Tower will cause a wild Spiritomb to attack the player. This will provide you with the opportunity to battle and capture Spiritomb!

The wild Spiritomb can attack using STAB Hex and Payback. It can also boost its Special Attack using Nasty Plot, which can make it scary if the battle drags on. Besides that, it can use Spite to lower your PP.
Due to its elusive typing, most attacks are neutral towards it. Normal-type moves obviously have no effect, while Poison does half damage. Avoid Fairy-type moves, since those are super-effective and could cause you to accidentally KO Spiritomb.
