Probably not, actually. This Jinxie's a lot less overtly superstitious as concerns ghosts since they are a demonstrable thing that live in the streets and can be seen by everyone. She's still heavily involved with the spiritual community, but her personal superstitions tend to have more to do with charms, fortune telling, and that kind of stuff than revolving around Pokemon themselves, with the notable exception of Honchkrow and Ninetales (the AU stand-ins for Tenma Taro and the Amazing Nine-Tails). She's also related to Maya Fey as her younger cousin from a branch family of the main Fey line, and Papa is still around as an NPC who takes care of political stuff in Ninetales Vale while Maya's busy being spiritual leader.

Also, no alderman murder case!

that is true! no alderman murder case so apollo isn't used to getting slapped in the face with charms yet, if that's still a thing

apollo is actually bonded with a murkrow, if you wanted to roll with that somehow for their first meeting. idk how to go about that though-- is the legend more or less the same, just with pokemon instead of the demons?

i would like for apollo to hang out with people from ninetales vale since he still has a bit of a bias towards ghost pokemon. ghosts unnerve him because he hasn't had a lot of exposure to them yet, and i'd like for him to get more familiar with the idea. it'd be some really fun character development.

The legend as I've chosen to present it in BNW is basically a big-ass Honchkrow attacked Jinxie's family's ancestors 500 years ago when the Pokemon rose up, and they were saved by a benevolent Ninetales that drove it off. They still call the Honchkrow 'Tenma Taro' and half of the name survives as the family name, etc.

She's pretty superstitious about the legend and got herself a Ninetales a while back that she pampers and treats like it's a god on earth, and would probably faint if confronted with an actual Honchkrow. Murkrow I've been saying are okay just because it's a starter and she'd be passing out all the time if that were the case.

Notably, she had a nightmare about the Tenma Taro thing during the event, and Lux helped her through it in a way that will probably result in Jinxie starting to let go of that extreme reaction just a little. Like anything, it will take time. But if Apollo wants to get used to ghosts, Jinxie can absolutely help him out with that.
