The '''Poltergust 5000''' is the name of the vacuum that [[Luigi]] uses in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. It is an updated version of the [[Poltergust 3000]] from the [[Luigi's Mansion|first game]]. It is also created by [[Professor Elvin Gadd]], which he abandoned inside [[Gloomy Manor]] when the Ghosts of Evershade Valley became hostile. So Luigi goes inside the mansion to retrieve the vacuum found at the Garage inside of a vehicle's hood. Like the first game, Luigi can use to Poltergust 5000 suck up ghosts and objects (by pressing {{button|3ds|R}} and blow). 

As with the Poltergust 3000, the vacuum is equipped with a [[Flashlight]]. Throughout his quest, Luigi will encounter various tools to make the vacuum's power greater by collecting treasure in the mansions. Unlike the first game, the Poltergust 5000 can suck in 3 ghosts at a time, any other ghosts stunned with the [[Strobulb]] remains stunned until Luigi stop sucking up at least one and switch to the other one. 

==Features==
[[File:Poltergust5000Retrieval.png|thumb|right|300px|Luigi getting the Poltergust 5000 in Gloomy Manor.]]
*In total, there are 5 colors: Red, [[ScareScraper|Green, Blue, Orange, and Pink]].
*Unlike the Poltergust 3000, after a short period of sucking up the ghost while pushing the {{button|3ds|Stick}} the opposite way of the ghost, the player can press {{button|3ds|A}} to make a power surge. Power Surges increase as Luigi upgrades the Poltergust 5000. A Blue Surge removes 10 HP from the ghost, a Green Surge removes 20, and a Red Surge removes 50. Along with extra damage, if defeating a ghost with a Power Surge, an amount of money will be deposited depending on what charge it is: a Blue Surge gives 3 coins, a Green Surge gives one gold bar, and a Red Surge gives 3 gold bars. If there are multiple ghosts within the suction, the ghosts will always drop an additional gold bar when captured, from a single gold bar with no surge, to a maximum of 4 gold bars from a Red Surge.
*The Poltergust 5000 can be upgraded over the course of the game, based on how much gold Luigi collects.
**2,000 G: The Green Surge is unlocked, allowing Luigi to do more damage and receive more gold.
**4,000 G: The Dark-Light Level 2 is unlocked, increasing the length of the Dark-Light Device's meter.
**7,000 G: The Red Surge is unlocked, allowing even more damage with Power Surges.
**10,000 G: The Dark-Light Level 3 is unlocked, maxing out the Dark-Light meter.
**20,000 G: The Super Poltergust can be unlocked, which fills the power bar and drains the ghost's HP faster.

-The '''Poltergust 5000''' is the name of the vacuum that [[Luigi]] uses in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. It is an upgraded version of the [[Poltergust 3000]] from the [[Luigi's Mansion|first game]], both of which were created by [[Professor E. Gadd]]. Its number of "5000" instead of "4000" was possibly done to acknowledge the [[Poltergust 4000]], a [[kart]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''.
-==History==
-===''Luigi's Mansion'' series===
-====''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon''====
-[[File:Poltergust5000Retrieval.png|thumb|left|220px|Screenshot from ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'']]
-The Poltergust 5000 is an object in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. It is the vacuum that Luigi uses throughout the game. When the [[Ghost (Luigi's Mansion series)|ghosts]] of [[Evershade Valley]] become hostile due to the shattering of the [[Dark Moon]], E. Gadd escapes, leaving the Poltergust 5000 behind. As part of the [[Poltergust 5000 (mission)|first mission]] of the game, recovering the vacuum from the vehicle in the [[Garage (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon)|Garage]] is Luigi's first objective. While the Poltergust 5000 is marked as an improved version of the Poltergust 3000, they share the same basic properties. Players can use the Poltergust 5000's vacuum by pressing {{button|3ds|R}} and blow things away by pressing {{button|3ds|L}}. While the Poltergust 5000 does retain the [[Flashlight]] attachment, it works differently than the original version's. The basic light can no longer stun ghosts, so the player has to first find the [[Strobulb]] in order to do so. The Strobulb can be used by pressing {{button|3ds|A}}. If the player long presses {{button|3ds|A}}, the Strobulb's range will increase, however, the Strobulb can stun a maximum five ghosts, three of which can be captured, but the other two will not be captured.  While the Poltergust 5000 cannot expel elements like the Poltergust 3000 could, an additional [[Dark-Light Device]] can be added to the Poltergust 5000, which is used to uncover invisible secrets.
-Unlike the Poltergust 3000, the Poltergust 5000 can perform a "Power Surge"<ref>{{cite|title=''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' instruction booklet|quote=(When POWER GAUGE appears) Press {{button|3ds|A}} for power surge}}{{page needed}}</ref> attack while sucking in ghosts. After charging a meter for a short time, players can press {{button|3ds|A}} to deal extra damage. A blue, green, or red surge drains 10, 20 or 50 health respectively. Furthermore, sucking multiple ghosts fills the meter faster and surges will damage all of them. Ghosts defeated with a blue, green, or red surge drop 3 coins, 1 gold bar, or 3 gold bars respectively. Catching multiple ghosts at once also causes each to drop an additional gold bar. The Power Surge is required to defeat [[Creeper]]s, enemies with [[paranormal shield]]s, and [[Possessor]] bosses.
-Additionally, the Poltergust 5000 can be seen in an additional four colors during the [[ScareScraper]]: Green, Blue, Orange, and Pink, which is respective to the player wearing it.
-{{br|left}}
-The Poltergust 5000 can also be upgraded over the course of the game, based on how much treasure Luigi collected in total:
-*2,000 G: The Green Surge is unlocked, allowing Luigi to do more damage and receive more gold.
-*4,000 G: The [[Dark-Light Device|Dark-Light]] Level 2 is unlocked, increasing the length of the Dark-Light Device's meter.
-*7,000 G: The Red Surge is unlocked, allowing even more damage and even more gold with Power Surges.
-*10,000 G: The Dark-Light Level 3 is unlocked, maxing out the Dark-Light meter.
-*20,000 G: The Super Poltergust is unlocked, which fills the power bar and drains the ghost's HP faster. It also features a design on the wheels, though it disappears when the player is in the [[Bunker]].

-In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]] / [[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', Luigi uses the Poltergust 5000 for his [[Final Smash]], replacing his previous Final Smash, the [[Negative Zone]], from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Upon activating the Final Smash, Luigi will don the Poltergust 5000 and begin vacuuming in his opponents and nearby [[List of items|items]], with the caught opponents receiving repeated damage. After a short period of time, he will then launch out anyone he caught in the direction he is facing, along with any items that were caught in the process. If no opponents are caught in the vacuum's suction, the Final Smash will fail.
-Though the Poltergust 5000 returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], Luigi instead uses the [[Poltergust G-00]] as his Final Smash.

+As with the Poltergust 3000, the vacuum is equipped with a [[Flashlight]].
