From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
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.
In the anime
Major appearances
Chandelure made its debut in Battle for the Underground! under Ingo's ownership. It helped Ash, Iris, and Cilan rescue their Pokémon from Team Rocket. The same Chandelure later appeared in Lost at the Stamp Rally! in a Tag Battle with Emmet's Eelektross against Ash's Tepig and Cilan's Pansage.
A Chandelure also appeared in Climbing the Tower of Success!.
