LanturnUnleashed #86 Pokémon Card

Lanturn, the Light Pokémon, is a dual Water/Electric type introduced in Generation II. It evolves from Chinchou starting at level 27. Found deep in the ocean, Lanturn uses the glowing orbs on its head to attract prey, illuminating the dark depths. Its bioluminescent lures are powerful enough to be seen from the surface, earning it the nickname "deep-sea star." Lanturn feeds on smaller fish that are drawn to its light, showcasing a unique predatory behavior. In the games, Lanturn is a reliable special attacker with good HP, often utilized for its Volt Absorb ability, which grants it immunity to Electric-type attacks and restores HP. In the anime, Lanturn has appeared in various episodes, often depicted as a gentle yet powerful inhabitant of the ocean. Its design, inspired by anglerfish, contributes to its memorable and somewhat mysterious presence in the Pokémon world, making it a favorite among fans who appreciate its unique adaptation to its environment.
