Professor Willow and Rhi dialogue

1^st Part

Hey, TRAINER! Is it just me, or is there a ghostly chill in the air?
It could have something to do with those lights over there! They belong to Litwick, the Candle Pokémon.
Litwick is known to leech off the life force of any who follow it.
The younger the life this Pokémon absorbs, the brighter and eerier the flame on its head burns. Makes for a pretty ominous candle, wouldn’t you say?
Litwick appearing in such force makes the perfect chance to learn more about them. I suggest you get up close and see for yourself!
Just be careful not to let Litwick lead you anywhere, TRAINER!

2^nd Part

Good day, Trainer. Professor Willow has tasked you with investigating...Litwick, is it?
The flame on its head is certainly alluring. A Pokémon that can bring light to its surroundings… What could be the source of its brilliant glow?
"Life force," Professor Willow says? Peculiar. I wonder—would those flames transform if Litwick were to evolve?
What are your thoughts, TRAINER?

3^rd Part

Wow, TRAINER! You went looking for Litwick and came back with a lamp!
I kid—I know a Lampent when I see one! And it was Rhi who suggested you help Litwick evolve? That’s great. We can always learn more when encouraged by our friends!
So, let me tell you about Lampent! While it often pretends to be a lamp, Lampent is usually feared as an emissary of death.
Through cities it wanders, searching for the spirits of the fallen. Spooky, but appropriate for the season!
And what a sight that fire is. I’m sure you and Rhi would get a kick out of seeing Lampent’s Evolution, Chandelure, too! But a word of caution, TRAINER...

4^th Part

They say spirits burned up in Chandelure's ominous flame lose their way and wander this world forever.
That new Pokémon... ... ... ...
Oh. My apologies, TRAINER. I was...preoccupied gazing at the flame your Pokémon is emanating.
... ... ...
The swaying of its arms is rather hypnotic.
It's called "Chandelure," is it? And Professor Willow said its flames can burn up spirits? An unsettling thought.
The Pokémon we studied today could easily be seen as frightening. Yet I believe there is a lesson we can take from them.
No matter how dark the world becomes, a little light always persists.
Thank you for teaching me that lesson once again, TRAINER. Take care, and I will see you again.
