From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Gothitelle (Japanese: ゴチルゼル Gothiruselle) is a Psychic-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Gothorita starting at level 41. It is the final form of Gothita.
Biology
Gothitelle is a humanoid Pokémon with a primarily black body. Its head is teardrop-shaped, with a white, bow-like fixture attached to the base of its tip. The black skin on Gothitelle's head opens onto its purple face with a zig-zag pattern resembling bangs. Gothitelle has large, heavy-lidded eyes with blue irises and white pupils, as well as a small mouth with red lips. Four flat, black disks flank each side of its head. Gothitelle's body is split into four progressively-larger tiers, with its head and arms being attached to the smallest, uppermost tier. Its arms are thin, ending in small, purple hands with white disks at the wrists. Each tier of Gothitelle's body has a white, bow-like fixture on its front.
Gothitelle's immense psychic power can distort the space around it, showing visions of distant stars and past events. It can predict the future from the placement and movement of stars, and weeps when it discovers the lifespan of its Trainer.

Trivia
Origin
Gothitelle appears to be based on a stylized depiction of a young woman wearing gothic lolita style clothing. It may also be based on the philosophical concept of the astral body. Its ability to predict the future using stars may allude to fortune tellers or Romani people.
Name origin
Gothitelle may be a combination of gothic and mademoiselle (French for the title of miss), tell, or stelle (Italian for stars, both stelle and tell referring to its ability to foretell the future through the movement of the stars) and may be a derivation of "göksel" Turkish for "celestial").
Gothiruselle may be a combination of gothic and mademoiselle (French for the title of miss).
