| The '''Dark-Light Device''' (also simply known as '''Dark-Light''' or '''Dark Light'''<ref>{{cite|url=luigismansion.nintendo.com/gameplay|title=Gameplay – Luigi’s Mansion™ 3 for the Nintendo Switch™ system|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=August 18, 2024}}</ref>) is a [[flashlight]] tool that appears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' (as well as ''[[Luigi's Mansion 2 HD]]'') and ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]''.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | The '''Dark Light''' is an add-on to the [[Poltergust 5000]] that appears in the game ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. When in use, Luigi's flashlight will emit a rainbow-colored light in the direction he is pointing it. |
| ===''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' / ''Luigi's Mansion 2 HD''===
| |
| In ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' and ''Luigi's Mansion 2 HD'', the Dark-Light Device is an add-on to the [[Poltergust 5000]], and it can be used by pressing {{button|3ds|Y}} in the original 3DS game and {{button|switch|Y}} or {{button|switch|L}} in the Switch remaster. When [[Luigi]] uses the Dark-Light Device, his flashlight instead emits a rainbow-colored light, which allows him to see objects that are hidden in a manner similar to an {{wp|black light|ultraviolet lamp}}. After shining the Dark-Light Device on these objects, Luigi needs to vacuum the [[Spirit Ball]]s that are revealed so that the objects can become visible again. However, the Dark-Light Device has an energy gauge represented by a rainbow-colored meter in the top right corner, and if the Dark-Light Device is used for too long, it overheats. A few upgrades to the gauge can be acquired from [[Professor E. Gadd]] by collecting treasure and leveling up. The Dark-Light Device can also reveal [[Polterpup]] tracks so Luigi can follow them, [[Boo]] trails to follow a Boo, and [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[coin]]s, or [[gem]]s trapped in paintings. The Dark-Light Device is also usable on [[ghost (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghosts]] such as [[Greenie]]s and [[Sneaker]]s. Sneakers are revealed when hit by the light, while Greenies start to taunt Luigi. The Dark-Light Device is also required to free [[Mario]] from [[Mario's Painting|his painting]]. In the [[ScareScraper]], Spirit Balls do not come out of revealed furniture, and if one Luigi has been cursed, other Luigis can use their Dark-Light Devices on him to remove the curse.

| ===''Luigi's Mansion 3''=== | | ==Uses== |
| In ''Luigi's Mansion 3'', the Dark-Light Device is an add-on to the [[Poltergust G-00]]. The Dark-Light Device is used by pressing {{button|switch|X}}. It is used similarly, but it can now be held indefinitely without overheating, in addition to revealing purple Spirit Balls that possess certain objects.
