Step 1: Evolving Litwick into Lampent
The first stage of Litwick's evolution is a straightforward process based on leveling up. To evolve your Litwick into a Lampent, you simply need to raise it to Level 41. This can be achieved through battling wild Pokémon, facing off against other trainers, or using items like Rare Candy and EXP. Candy. There are no special conditions, locations, or time-of-day requirements for this evolution, making it a simple milestone to reach on your journey.
- Litwick evolves into Lampent at Level 41.
- Lampent evolves into Chandelure when you use a Dusk Stone on it.
- The final evolution from Lampent to Chandelure is not level-dependent.

Step 2: From Lampent to Chandelure
Once you have your Lampent, the final evolution into the formidable Chandelure requires a specific evolutionary item: a Dusk Stone. Unlike the first evolution, this one is not tied to a specific level. You can use a Dusk Stone on your Lampent at any level after it has evolved from Litwick. Simply open your bag, select the Dusk Stone, and use it on Lampent to trigger the evolution. Dusk Stones can often be found in dark caves, as rewards for completing certain in-game tasks, or purchased from special vendors depending on the game you are playing.
It's worth noting that once Lampent evolves, it may not learn the same moves by leveling up as it would have in its pre-evolved form. Be sure to check its moveset before using the Dusk Stone to ensure you don't miss out on any desired attacks!

Frequently Asked Questions
At what level should I evolve Lampent into Chandelure?
You can evolve Lampent at any level using a Dusk Stone. However, many trainers choose to delay the evolution. Lampent learns some powerful moves at higher levels (like Memento or Overheat in certain games) that Chandelure cannot learn by leveling up. It's best to check Lampent's move list for your specific game and decide if you want to learn those moves before committing to the evolution.
Can I stop Litwick from evolving?
Yes. Like most Pokémon evolutions, you can cancel it by pressing the 'B' button (or the equivalent in your game) during the evolution animation. If you want to prevent it from trying to evolve after every level-up, you can give it an Everstone to hold.
