Pokédex entries

Gold The light it emits is so bright that it can illuminate the sea’s surface from a depth of over three miles.
Silver It blinds prey with an intense burst of light, then swallows the immobilized prey in a single gulp.
Crystal This POKéMON uses the bright part of its body, which changed from a dorsal fin, to lure prey.
Ruby LANTURN is nicknamed “the deep-sea star” for its illuminated antenna. This POKéMON produces light by causing a chemical reaction between bacteria and its bodily fluids inside the antenna.
