Well, actually, Ghoulamp sounds better in my opinion. Geez, I'm indecisive today.

Ghoulamp does have the simpler, more pokémonish feel to it in my opinion. And since you started this thread, I feel your say in this is important.

BlindingLight

I feel so proud today! I created the Name, Pokedex Type, Height, Weight, Pokedex Data, Abilities, and Movelist, PLUS a new move! I truly feel like I contributed! Also, I think that "and turns as pale as a sheet" is stupid. Any other suggestions for the last part of the sentence? Also, you said PHOTOM in the Dex when it is now Ghoulamp! Illuminate and Levitate are perfect abilities in my mind. 1/4 seems too much! How about 1/8?

How about this for a Dex entry?

GHOULAMP has a strange sense of humour:
when Trainers pass by in the night, these
nasty Pokemon use the lanterns on their
---
heads to scare and confuse them. Inside
the body of GHOULAMP is an orb of light;
the body is just made of a burlap sack.

Edit: How about it's Wild Hold Item? Maybe sometimes it could hold a Shiny Stone?

- I like Trapinch's dex info. I'd say we go with that one.
- Also, I think the types are better off being switched to Ghost/Light.
- The Pokédex Type is very good, Gelatop. It's great.
- As for its abilities, just Levitate is probably better. All Ghoulamp float after all, and its light is already covered by its type.
- Wild Hold Items are not necessary to include, but you're free to suggest one for fun ^-^
- And pokeaddict, sure, go and sketch! :P

ShinEdit: And while we're still working on it, are we going to provide it with a relative, or keep it as a stand-alone pokémon?

I guess it could be related to Duskull in a way.

Maybe use a Shiny Stone on a Duskull?

Nah, I'd rather give it a pre-evo or an evo of its own, or even let it be a stand-alone, than relate it to Duskull. Duskull's line is complicated enough as it is, I'd say.

What we could do is giving it a tall and skinny evolution, which could be based on a street lantern. We had a concept like that before (which was lost in the May hack, although I still have its sketch) and it could fit here too... If not, it's fine as it is.

ShinEdit: found the sketch I referred to, made by Botispine:

So something like this would work as an evo?

I think the name Ghastlight or Polterglow might work

Edit: Gave him a tail light.

Heheh, nice! How does Geistreet sound? (Geist + Street) I like Ghastlight too, but it might be too close to Gastly...

I dunno... It doesn't really tell much about its lanternish qualities.

The 'street' is from street light... You might be right, though. I'll keep on thinking

Ghastlight is my favorite of yours, but here are some new suggestions! Also, Polterglow's okay, but not Geistreet.

Phanton (Phantom+Photon)
Aswitch (Aswang(Filipino Ghoul)+Light Switch)
Banshine (Banshee+Shine)
Flashee (Flash+Banshee)
Drauglow (Draugr(Norse Undead)+Glow)
Lampreta (Lamp+Preta(Hungry Ghost of Buddhist texts))
Ghostern (Ghost+Lantern)
Jikining (Jikininki(Japanese Ghoul)+Shining)
Mylight (Myling(Scandinavian Soul)+Light)
Rusalant (Rusalka(Slavic Female Ghost)+Lantern)
Spectern (Spectre+Lantern)
Spiright (Spirit+Light)
Yuradiant (Yurei(Japanese Ghost)+Radiant)

Use whatever you want, but personally, Ghastlight, Mylight, Drauglow, Phanton, Banshine, and Rusalant are my favorites of the suggestions. Hopefully, we'll move on, and we'll be able to make more stuff. I call the Dex!

That drawing is SO awesome!

I don't think most people would get the reference in half of those. Just saying.

Hm... another name struck my mind. Going with Ghoulamp, I wanted something that ended with 'lamp' too. How does Eidolamp (Eidolon + Lamp) sound?
