The identity of the ghosts can be revealed with an item called the [[Silph Scope]]; without the device, battling the ghosts is impossible. Whenever the player orders an attack against an unknown ghost, the player's Pokémon will be too scared to move.

Instead of being attacked, the ghost will say "Get out…. Get out…." Before the battle against {{p|Marowak}}'s ghost, a similar message appears, saying "Be gone… Intruders…" | The identity of the ghosts can be revealed with an item called the [[Silph Scope]]; without the device, battling the ghosts is impossible.
