Known as the "Light Pokémon," Lanturn is famed for the bioluminescent organs on its head that resemble fishing lures, which it uses to attract prey in the deep sea. It inhabits the vast, dark depths of the ocean, where its light is crucial for survival and hunting. Its diet primarily consists of smaller fish and marine organisms drawn to its glow. In the games, Lanturn is often valued for its unique typing, which gives it resistance to common Water and Flying types while also providing offensive coverage against them. In the anime, Lanturn has appeared in various episodes, often showcasing its ability to illuminate dark underwater environments and assist trainers in their aquatic adventures. Its design, inspired by anglerfish, contributes to its cultural significance as a creature of mystery and light in the dark ocean, symbolizing guidance and discovery in the Pokémon world.
