"Only the bravest of trainers dare to tame these terrifying and mischievous spirits. The ghostly Paranox only appears during the night of Halloween, and even then, it's a rare sight. They mostly lurk around places where a lot of tragedy has taken place in the past. If spotted outside of one of these areas, they're seen as a very bad omen. Very intelligent and mean-spirited by nature, Paranoxes love to play pranks on any unsuspecting target, including their own trainers, who have to deal with their antics. While most of their physical capabilities are very average, their unique physiology makes up for it. Paranoxes are capable of phasing through objects at will and becoming completely invisible. The origins of this dragon are still shrouded in mystery, but due to some recent revelations, a connection has been found between the ancient, long-extinct species known as 'Empesta' and Paranox, as their skeletal structures and features share an uncanny resemblance."
