Pokédex entries

The light it emits is so bright that it can illuminate the sea's surface from a depth of over three miles.
Pokémon Silver / Pokémon FireRed
It blinds prey with an intense burst of light, then swallows the immobilized prey in a single gulp.
Pokémon Crystal
This Pokémon uses the bright part of its body, which changed from a dorsal fin, to lure prey.
Pokémon Sapphire
Lanturn is known to emit light. If you peer down into the dark sea from a ship at night, you can sometimes see this Pokémon's light rising from the depths where it swims. It gives the sea an appearance of a starlit night.
Pokémon 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.
Pokémon Emerald
The light-emitting orbs on its back are very bright. They are formed from a part of its dorsal fin. This Pokémon illuminates the inky darkness of deep seas.
