Luderigus

Luderigus (Loo-Duh-REE-gus) is a Ghost/Dark-type Pokémon introduced in v1.0 of Horizon Mons, and Wave 2 of New Dawn. It is the evolution of Dawnian Yamask.

Dawnian Camerupt was first conceptualized on April 20, 2025. It was publicly released on the New Dawn Minecraft Server on May 12, 2025.

This Pokémon seeks out the less fortunate, gradually siphoning away their life force in exchange for a chance to get rich. No one has ever won Luderigus's game. This Pokémon often clashes in brutal fights with Gholdengo.

Dawnian Yamask evolves into Luderigus after consuming 777 Relic Coins.

Luderigus resembles a slot machine. It has a primary red coloration, with accents of silver, gold, and black. It has one single gold eye peeking out of a hole at the top, and a grin where the slots would be. It also has hand-like accents at the bottom, with a silver protrusion that resembles legs. Its lever has been detached from the side to become a tail, and the entire Pokémon is covered by a black aura, which includes a ghostly hand.

Luderigus can spawn nearby Relic Coin sacks and pouches. It is a Rare spawn, and can spawn at level 40-78.

Luderigus is based on the idea of greed and addiction itself. It represents a harsh gambling addiction, by taking the form of a slot machine that literally steals your soul.

Luderigus is a combination of the words Ludere and Cofagrigus or Runerigus.
