01

Generation V identity and base stats

Litwick is Unova #113 and National #607. Its original Black and White typing is Ghost / Fire. These figures describe the standard form in the original Nintendo DS games.

The illustration uses a standard Generation V sprite; colour, gender or seasonal forms can differ in the cartridge.

Where to obtain it in Black and White

Check the version and method columns before travelling. An encounter listed as a gift or stationary interaction does not mean Litwick appears in ordinary grass. Level ranges combine matching slots within the same recorded condition.

The following records are filtered to Black and White. The table preserves separate seasons and special conditions. These are documented locations, not a promise that every encounter is available at the start of the story.

Flash FireRegular ability

Shadow TagHidden slot; historical availability must be checked

A Hidden Ability in the data is not proof of an obtainable original-game specimen. Some Hidden Abilities were never released in Generation V; the starter Contrary/Reckless/Shell Armor slots and Litwick-line Shadow Tag cannot be treated as ordinary Black/White catches.

FIELD NOTE

Use the exact Black or White method and condition before hunting Litwick. Event prerequisites and evolution-only species need a different collection plan from ordinary wild encounters.
