Lunatone (Japanese: ルナトーン Lunatone) is a dual-type Rock/Psychic Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Lunatone is a Pokémon that originally came from space. They originally came to earth within meteorites and have since adapted to life on earth quite nicely. Lunatone resembles a the crescent moon, it has red eyes and an unusual beak like structure in front of them. Being an inorganic Pokémon, it isn't preyed upon, nor does it need to prey on others, as it derives all its energy from moonlight. It uses telekinesis to float in mid-air.

Gender differences

Lunatone is genderless.

Special abilities

Lunatone's ability, Levitate, allows it to avoid Template:Type2 moves such as Earthquake or Magnitude. Its red eyes also fill the onlooker with fear.It is capable of reading the thoughts of other lifeforms like most psychic types. It is even capable of brainwashing, but only does this when it feels threatened and is usually a last resort.

Behavior

Lunatone's power and health seems to be tied directly to the phases of the moon. When there is a full moon, Lunatone is at the peak of its strength. Presumably when there is a new moon, Lunatone is defenseless. It is capable of reading the minds of other lifeforms.

Habitat

Lunatone seems to prefer caves.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

This Pokémon has no need to feed since it derives all of its energy from moonlight.

In the anime

File:SolidasaSolrock.jpg
Liza's Lunatone and Tate's Solrock

Lunatone first appeared in Crazy as a Lunatone. A pair of thieves calling themselves the PMC was after it due to wanting to get their hands on another outer-space Pokémon.

Liza and her Lunatone debuted in It's Still Rocket Roll to Me alongside Tate and his Solrock. Ash Ketchum's Gym battle against Tate and Liza and their Meteorite Pokémon was in the following episode.
