Chandelure (Japanese: シャンデラ Chandela) is a dual-type Ghost/Fire Pokémon.

It evolves from Lampent when exposed to a Dusk Stone. It is the final form of Litwick.

Biology

Chandelure is a Pokémon that resembles a sentient chandelier. It has a striped, round head, and round, pupil-less yellow eyes. There is a ring of small, black spikes on top of its head with a tall, purple flame in the middle. From a black spike below its head, black arms curl upward. These arms are tipped with purple fire. Chandelure's fires do not burn its victims physically, instead burning their spirit. After hypnotizing its opponent by waving these flames, it absorbs the victim's spirit.

Trivia

• No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Chandelure and its evolutionary relatives.
• In Generation V games, Chandelure and its evolutionary relatives have Shadow Tag instead of Infiltrator as their Hidden Ability. However, they cannot be obtained with their Hidden Ability in these games.
• Chandelure has the highest base Special Attack stat of all non-Mega Evolved Ghost-type Pokémon.

Origin

Chandelure is based on a hitodama (a blue, black, or purple-fire associated with ghosts and yōkai, equivalent to the western will-o'-the-wisp) and a chandelier.

Name origin

Chandelure may be a combination of chandelier and lure or allure.

Chandela is a corruption of chandelier and may be a combination of chandelier and candela (Latin for candle).
