Lunala (ルナアーラ, Lunala) is a Legendary Pokémon from the Alola region.
Origin[edit]
Lunala is a Psychic/Ghost-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation VII, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #792 as the "Moone Pokémon". It serves as the mascot for Pokémon Moon. It evolves from Cosmoem when leveled up in Pokémon Moon, Pokémon Ultra Moon, Pokémon Shield, or Pokémon Violet starting at level 53. It is one of Cosmog's final forms, the other being Solgaleo. Necrozma fuses with Lunala using the N-Lunarizer to become Dawn Wings Necrozma.
Moongeist Beam is Lunala's signature move. It has 100 power and 100% accuracy and allows its user to ignore the target's Abilities when dealing damage.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Once summoned, Lunala teleports to the background of the stage, readying its signature move, Moongeist Beam (シャドーレイ, Shadow Ray), a large, lingering damage-dealing laser; it will fire a laser at an opponent before dragging it upwards towards the top of the screen. It repeats this process 3 times before flying away. It can only aim at grounded opponents, otherwise aiming at the last point on the ground the opponent was on before entering the air.
On most stages, Lunala has a spawn chance of 12/1463 from Poké Balls and 40/842 from Master Balls. It has a modified spawn weight on the following stages (actual chances may vary based on changes to other Pokémon):
- Poké Balls 12 → 0: 3D Land, 75m, Prism Tower, Tomodachi Life, Unova Pokémon League, and Wrecking Crew.
- Master Balls 40 → 0: 3D Land, 75m, Prism Tower, The Great Cave Offensive, Tomodachi Life, Unova Pokémon League, and Wrecking Crew.

Trivia[edit]
- Lunala is unable to be summoned on 49 stages, making it the most limited Poké Ball Pokémon in Ultimate alongside Marshadow.
- Counting Omega and Battlefield forms, Lunala is the most limited Poké Ball Pokémon with 95 stage restrictions.
- The noise Lunala makes when summoned includes the sound of Mothra's cry from the Godzilla film franchise; this is similar to Palkia in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4, who uses stock sound effects of Godzilla and King Ghidorah's roar.
- Lunala's roar is not heard in the game's Sound Test.
