* The first cutscene with the Galarian legendary birds. Moltres is just eating from a large tree when Zapdos charges at it and attacks it. Then Articuno shows up and joins the fight as well. The fight is cut short when the player’s Rotom Phone rings and the birds all glare at them. While fortunately none of them attack, it’s unnerving to think that the player might have been dragged into a fight with three powerful Pokémon, especially if the player was unprepared for such a scenario.

Keep in mind that this had happened before, 20,000 years ago, wherein Eternatus' mere awakening from its meteoroid prison began a calamity known as the Darkest Day, which required both Zacian and Zamazenta to seal it away again, and the two beasts still have parts of their bodies nicked off from that battle.

* Wild encounters in general run on ParanoiaFuel, most predominately in the Wild Area. There are quite a number of Pokémon that will actively chase you down once spotted, only stopping once you manage to get far enough away. What especially makes it worse is that they can ambush you from off screen, adding an extra layer of paranoia of getting attacked by something you didn't even see coming. Some of these Pokémon in the Wild Area are pretty strong too, meaning that there's a decent chance that your whole team will get wiped out, simply because you were not prepared.
** For players who are [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes scared of spiders]] running into [[GiantSpider Galvantula and Araquanid]] as overworld encounters can be unsettling, especially if they start chasing you. They can also spawn as Raid dens, which are at least optional, where they'll tower over the player character.
*** Even though it's not a spider in and of itself, Durant can invoke a similar reaction in combination with JumpScare due to the way its kind behaves in the overworld: They're located in tall grass areas, and they're small enough that the grass almost completely camouflages them. They're also among the species that actively hunt down the player once they're spotted. While bothersome, it's not so much running into and encountering them by accident that makes them especially disturbing, it's when you wait outside the grass as they indicate they're about to hunt you down, with you possibly not knowing what's about to come out of the grass, only to see this creature emerge in a fluid movement eerily similar to an actual real life spider.
** A special mention goes to the [[BearsAreBadNews Bewear]]. The Wild Area has several areas where they like to hang around, and they will chase after you when they spot you. Their sheer size, combined with their unusually stoic expression, is somehow pretty unnerving. Especially when more than one start chasing you down. Keep in mind that they're very strong to the point that [[TheDreaded they're feared across the Alola region]], so this effect was likely intentional.
*** Bike out to the little island that is Axew's Eye. If the weather is Normal or Overcast, odds are a large group of Bewear will pop out of the grass as you approach, and will likely start chasing you down as a group if you are on land.
** If you manage to catch the attention of a Liepard, you may as well just give up escaping from them. You can't outrun them, and if you aren't on your bike already in the time it takes for you to get on it, you'll get pounced on the split-second before you can actually begin pedalling. This is even worse early on, as a high-level Liepard always spawns near the bridge between North Lake Miloch and Motostoke Riverbank that will always outspeed your Pokémon, resulting in at least one casualty on your side when you try to run from it.
** To a lesser extent, those who are afraid of dogs should always carry a Water, Ground or Rock-type Pokemon with them at all times. In ''Shield'', Arcanine appear at the Lake of Outrage during bouts of intense sunlight, and just like Liepard, if you're not already pedaling when it decides to "get friendly" with you, you're not getting away. Boltund also appear post-game and unlike its pre-evolution, Yamper, it will ''chase you''. Those hunting for rare Pokemon in that region should take such precautions just to be safe.
** The aforementioned Durant is found only in ''Sword'', but ''Shield'' gets a counterpart: Sableye. Sableye is not just small like Durant, it's stupid fast in the overworld for something with a base 50 Speed. They will give chase ''immediately upon spotting you'' and are as fast as ''the bicycle can go''. You need a Rotom boost to truly get away, provided you're not spotted by another Sableye in front of you! The one saving grace is that they show up only in Dusty Bowl and only in the fog, so they'll only exist in-game on rare occasions. However, that same fog can add another layer of fear as it'll be harder to see one coming from afar.

It took two heroes -- one with a sword and the other a shield -- and their armies of Pokémon alongside Zacian and Zamazenta to shove Eternatus back into its cage, and only Arceus knows how many lives were lost and how devastated the region was before the conflict finally ended. Still not enough? [[LeakingCanOfEvil The cage leaked all that time]], and the occasional Dynamax Pokémon would cause havoc; it got to the point where meteorites called Wishing Stars were actually weaponized to give the land's defenders a means to fight back, which eventually changed from national defense to regional competition. [[EvilIsNotAToy And then Chairman Rose had to prod at the cage]], and next thing you know, [[HistoryRepeats it's a new Darkest Day]]...

* If you thought Ultra Necrozma was scary, meet Eternatus and its Eternamax form; yes, there's a level above Gigantamax. It's a giant serpent that almost looks like a spinal cord, with a five-pronged mouth at the end and what looks to be eyes at the end of each prong. You can't even attack it--as it — as in, your Pokémon can't use any moves--until moves — until a plot event has you and Hop summon not one, but ''both'' box legendaries. Keep in mind that this had happened before, 20,000 years ago, wherein Eternatus' mere awakening from its meteoroid prison began a calamity known as the Darkest Day, which required both Zacian and Zamazenta to seal it away again, and the two beasts still have parts of their bodies nicked off from that battle. And unlike Necrozma and Kyurem, who played similar roles and fell to earth in a similar fashion, this thing seems to be inherently malevolent as opposed to acting out of pained rage.
** And on that note, the Darkest Day. Imagine house-sized Pokémon, far as the eye can see, wreaking havoc all across Galar.

** There's an alternative view of Eternatus' calamitous powers — it's not malevolent, it's [[PowerIncontinence unable to restrain its power]]. YMMV on which is worse.

-->'''Oleana''': So, you got through all of the special staff that I had ordered to stop you. I would expect nothing less of the Trainers handpicked by Champion Leon himself. But I am afraid it is now time for you to go home. Because... ([[MoodSwinger suddenly switches her normally calm face to a freaky furious one]]) I will not allow anyone to disturb the great Chairman Rose! You shall be the first, (player name)! If I beat you to pieces, then the Champion will have no one to battle and will thus lose heart. In that state, he will listen to anything the chairman says!

** Necrozma in particular looks ''very'' intimidating due to its Dynamaxed appearance looking eerily similar to its appearance in the opening of ''Ultra Sun'' and ''Ultra Moon'', where it captured the already sizeable Nebby in its palms.
