Overview |
Upon evolution, Lumineon exclusively live in the ocean depths where little to no light penetrates. They are now able to produce their own bioluminescence and do not have to rely on the sun to gather energy. Lumineon flash light patterns on their four tail fins to attract prey; deep sea explorers have described the sight of schools of Lumineon flashing in the abyss to be akin to skies full of stars. This light also attracts predators, though; to avoid detection, they “walk” on the sea floor by using their pelvic fins as “legs,” sneaking beneath most attackers. In the deep, Lumineon’s main competitors for food are Lanturn, who are also bioluminescent hunters. The electrical powers of Lanturn put Lumineon at a disadvantage, so the latter will generally avoid confrontation with them. Curiously, perhaps due to their Beautifly-like wings, Lumineon can use a few Bug-type moves like Silver Wind in battle. They court mates by completing intricate dances involving flashing lights and flapping fins with their partners before mating.
