===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]===
In the Nintendo 3DS version's Smash Run mode, Chandelure appears as an enemy who can use Will-O-Wisp, which consists of three weak purple fireballs that home in on the player.
 
===[[Pokkén Tournament]]===
{{p|Chandelure}} also uses Will-O-Wisp in ''Pokkén''. Chandelure sends weak purple flames that either fly forward or remain in place if charged. The flames cannot be nullified by other projectiles, and upon contact, the opponent's Attack is lowered, similar to a {{status|burn}}.

==={{g|UNITE}}===
In Pokémon UNITE, Will-O-Wisp is {{p|Gengar}}'s and {{p|Trevenant}}'s first move.
 
Gengar starts with the move as {{p|Gastly}}. The user shoots three flames in a cone, damaging and burning enemies hit.  Upon reaching level 7 as {{p|Haunter}}, it is replaced by either {{m|Shadow Ball}} or {{m|Sludge Bomb}}.
 
Trevenant starts with the move as {{p|Phantump}}. The user shoots sinister flames in the designated direction, dealing damage to enemies hit and leaving them burned for a short time. This burn reduces enemy Attack and Sp. Attack by 5% for 3s. The first wisp to hit a target deals full damage, and subsequent flame hits deal 50% damage. Upon evolving at level 5, it is replaced by either {{m|Wood Hammer}} or {{m|Curse}}.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Despite what its name would imply, and it being more associated with Ghost-types, Will-O-Wisp is not a Ghost-type move, instead being a Fire-type move. The only possible explanation for this is because it inflicts a burn. A similar situation occurs with {{m|PoisonPowder}}.
* This move is named after the {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}, a ghost light seen over wetlands.
** {{p|Vulpix}} is the only non {{type2|Ghost}} to learn Will-O-Wisp by level up.
* In all handheld games starting from [[Generation IV]] and in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], the animation shows the flames being purple, although the description says they are bluish-white.
** {{p|Froslass}} and {{p|Golett}}'s {{p|Golurk|family}} are the only Ghost-type Pokémon that cannot learn Will-O-Wisp.
* Will-O-Wisp is one of a few moves with its accuracy being different between the core series (up to 85%) and [[Pokémon Masters EX]] (90%).
* Will-O-Wisp is the only [[status move]] capable of inflicting a burn.
* Even though Will-O-Wisp is a [[status move]], its depiction in the {{pkmn|anime}} prior to ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'' was similar to that of a damage-dealing move, even to the point of being recognized in ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'' as an equal to a {{AP|Charizard}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}} in terms of power.
* In Pokémon {{5v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|Black|White}}, and [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], the animation shows the flames being purple, although the description says they are bluish white.
** Furthermore, the first time Will-O-Wisp was seen inflicting a {{status|burn}} on its target was in ''[[JN114|Friends, Rivals, Lend Me Your Spirit!]]'', almost 20 years after its debut in the [[core series]] games.
* Even though Will-O-Wisp is a Status move, it's always shown as an offensive move in the anime never causing any burns at all, in one instance being shown to equal {{m|Flamethrower}} in terms of power.
* In the [[dub]] versions of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', when [[Butler]] calls for his {{p|Dusclops}} to use this attack, he calls it "Capitata" rather than "Will-O-Wisp". In the Japanese version, Butler says "''Onibi''", which is Will-O-Wisp's Japanese name. It is unknown how the name "Capitata" got into the script or final product.
* In the {{pmin|Latin America}}n dub of ''Gathering the Gang of Four!'', Will-O-Wisp was referred to as ''Fogonazo'', which is the European Spanish name for {{m|Seed Flare}}.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U

In the Nintendo 3DS version's Smash Run mode, Chandelure appears as an enemy who can use Will-O-Wisp, which consists of three weak purple fireballs that home in on the player.

Pokkén Tournament

Chandelure also uses Will-O-Wisp in Pokkén. Chandelure sends weak purple flames that either fly forward or remain in place if charged. The flames cannot be nullified by other projectiles, and upon contact, the opponent's Attack is lowered, similar to a burn.

Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Will-O-Wisp is Gengar's and Trevenant's first move.

Gengar starts with the move as Gastly. The user shoots three flames in a cone, damaging and burning enemies hit. Upon reaching level 7 as Haunter, it is replaced by either Shadow Ball or Sludge Bomb.

Trevenant starts with the move as Phantump. The user shoots sinister flames in the designated direction, dealing damage to enemies hit and leaving them burned for a short time. This burn reduces enemy Attack and Sp. Attack by 5% for 3s. The first wisp to hit a target deals full damage, and subsequent flame hits deal 50% damage. Upon evolving at level 5, it is replaced by either Wood Hammer or Curse.
