Biography
Poképark 2: Wonders Beyond
Chandelure has three moves in his boss battle: At close combat, he uses a spin-move, but if it hits before Chandelure starts spinning, it will turn into a Shadow Punch instead that does less damage. His second move is shadow ball, he launches multiple small shadow balls at the player. His 3rd and final move is when he calls on his minions, Litwick and Lampent, they have one move each.
Litwick can throw shadow balls about the same size as Chandelure's, the only difference is Litwick only throws one at a time while Chandelure throws five at once, they often do this at the same time.
Lampent's move is the spin-attack move; it works similarly to Chandelure's spin-move, except they are obviously smaller.

Chandelure appears as a fighter in all versions of Pokkén Tournament. It attacks by using firey and shadowy attacks. Its Burst Attack is Final Flicker, in which Chandelure places its foe to sleep before attacking them with ghostly flames.

He is also very prideful and takes very high pride in the reason that he is the leader of the Litwick family and his attraction.
He also constantly underestimates the "kids" because they are younger than him.
What happened to Chandelure after he got rejected by Gothitelle is unknown.
