Litwick (Japanese: ヒトモシ Hitomoshi) is a dual-type Ghost/Fire Pokémon.
It evolves into Lampent starting at level 41, which evolves into Chandelure when exposed to a Dusk Stone.
Biology
Physiology
Litwick has a purple flame atop its head. Its body is made up primarily of white wax. The folded, melted wax lays over its right eye, and leaves only the bright yellow left eye visible. It has a small smile under a protruding upper lip.
Gender differences

Special abilities
Litwick can suck life energy using the light on its head, which in turn is powered by life energy.
Behavior
Litwick pretend to guide people around by illuminating darkened areas, while really sucking away their life energy with its light and leading them to the Ghost World. This life energy is then burned to form the flame on their heads. In the anime, the flame is shown to grow as they continually suck life energy.

Trivia
Origin
Litwick is a combination of Hitodama (a blue, black, or purple-fire associated with ghosts and youkai, equivalent to the western Will-o'-the-wisp) and a candle. It may also be based on the cliche of ghostly floating candles.
Name origin
Litwick may to be a combination of lit (past tense of to light) or little and wick. Wick might also refer to wicked.
Hitomoshi may be derived from 火点し hitomoshi, to light a lamp or is the person who leads a funeral procession in Japan with a torch, matching its Pokédex entry saying it leads people astray and then sucks out their life force. It may also derive from 人燃し hitomoshi (to burn a man [to death]).
