Trivia

• No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Hitomoshi and its evolutionary relatives.
• Hitomoshi, along with with Slugma and Torkoal, has the lowest Speed of all Fire-type Pokémon.

Origin

Hitomoshi 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.

Name origin

Hitomoshi seems to come from 火点し hitomoshi, which means to light a lamp, or the person who leads a funeral procession in Japan with a torch, matchingh its Pokédex entry saying it leads people astray and then sucks out their life force.
