Several days later, Jinji the Gengar has just finished enjoying some outside fun with his fellow spirits. Returning to the haunted mansion he shares with them all, he spies a mysterious envelope on his doorstep. Curious, he opens it immediately.

Inside, Jinji finds a photograph of Mallow at his dump, smiling and waving to the camera. Jinji smiles, knowing immediately what this means; then flips over the photo to find a message crudely written on the back, between various sludgy stains…

“Jinji, I be hosting a birthday party back home at the North Unova dump, and I be very happy if you be able to come! Please turn up by 12pm September 9.”

Jinji chuckles to himself. “I can’t say no to one of my best friends! I better get a gas mask ready though. They don’t call Mallow ‘The Stinkiest Garbodor’ for nothing – especially if he’s sticking to his tradition! And I better ask Phantisserie to get started on a special cake for me to bring!”

“Did you call, Jinji?” Right on cue, Phantisserie manifests herself in Jinji’s room, holding a giant gift box. “I saw the letter too, and I took the liberty of preparing a very special cake just for the occasion!”

“You always manage to impress, Phantisserie”, Jinji says in awe. “I knew I could count on you!”
