At a point before the [[player]] reaches Lavender Town, members of [[Team Rocket]] invade Pokémon Tower and attempt to steal the skulls of {{p|Cubone}}, in order to sell them for [[Pokémon Dollar|large amounts of cash]]. | At a point before the [[player]] reaches Lavender Town, members of [[Team Rocket]] invade Pokémon Tower and attempt to steal the skulls of {{p|Cubone}}, in order to sell them for [[Pokémon Dollar|large amounts of cash]]. One Cubone, however, was protected by its mother. The Cubone escaped, but its mother was killed. As a result, the Marowak's ghost remained in the Pokémon Tower, forbidding access to the topmost floor. She would appear [[Literal ghost|in a disguise]], avoid all thrown [[Poké Ball]]s, and scare opponents so much that they would be unwilling to attack. However, the player unmasked her with the [[Silph Scope]] and subsequently [[Pokémon battle|battled]] her. Once she was defeated, her soul was calmed, and she departed to the afterlife. | ||
