Chandelure (シャンデラ,Chandela) is a creature from thePokémon series.
Origin[edit]
Chandelure is a Ghost/Fire-type Pokémon introduced inGeneration V, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #609 as the "Luring Pokémon". It is the final form ofLitwick and evolves fromLampent with a Dusk Stone. It is notable for being used by three different Elite Four members throughout the games, the first beingShauntal, the second beingMalva, and the third beingPhoebe (only in her rematch team inOmega Ruby andAlpha Sapphire). It is also used by the Galar gym leaderAllister in his Champion’s Cup rematch. Additionally, Chandelure received a Mega Evolution in Generation IX.
One of its possible abilities isFlash Fire, the likely cause of its fire immunity in Smash Run: when a Pokémon with it is hit by a Fire-type attack it receives a 50% power boost to its Fire-type attacks instead of taking damage.
Fire Spin is a special Fire-type move introduced inGeneration I. It damages and traps its target, preventing it from fleeing or being switched and dealing damage at the end of every turn. Chandelure can learn the move via leveling up as a Litwick or theMove Reminder inGeneration VIII.
Will-O-Wisp is a status move introduced inGeneration III. It has 85% accuracy andburns its target if successful. Chandelure can learn the move through the same methods as Fire Spin, as well as usingTM61 in Generation V throughGeneration VII orTM31 in Generation VIII.

Chandelure appears as an enemy inSmash Run.
Chandelure floats to a point above and ahead of the player and can use two different attacks:
- Fire Spin: creates a flaming vortex which travels along the ground and dealsflame damage. Chandelure can only use this attack if the player is at a similar vertical point to the Pokémon.
- Will-O-Wisp: creates three purple flames which dealdarkness damage and shoots them at the player.
If hit by any flame or darkness attack, whether direct, indirect, or terrain-induced, Chandelure receives a power boost to its next attack instead of taking damage or even flinching. The stronger or more attacks it takes before attacking, the stronger and larger the attack will be.
Trophy[edit]
- Chandelure
A Ghost/Fire-type Pokémon that burns its opponents' spirits instead of their bodies. When it attacks, it does so in bursts of three, using moves like Will-O-Wisp and Fire Spin. Try not to use fire-based attacks or items on it, as it will only absorb them and use them to strengthen itself.
