Lucario (ルカリオ, Rukario) can only be obtained through evolution in the Pokémon video game series, first appearing in the fourth generation of games. Its type is Steel/Fighting, making it the first time this combination has been used in the Pokémon franchise. Lucario has two possible abilities: "Inner Focus", a trait that prevents flinching (although this does not work with the "flinching" effect of Focus Punch), or "Steadfast", which causes Lucario's speed to be raised if it is flinched. Its Attack and Special Attack statistics are very high, along with an above average Speed stat.

[edit] Description

Lucario tend to live far away from civilization so that they can improve their fighting skills. Because of this, there is no possible way to catch a wild Lucario in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, but can only obtain one by getting a Riolu egg and having the Pokémon inside evolve.

In the anime, Lucario can be seen eating berries and even chocolate.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, Lucario is known as the greatest rescue leader. Once the player's rescue point count becomes 15,000, the player will be at the rank of Lucario, and a statue of the Pokémon will appear outside of the rescue base.

[edit] Pokédex Entries

• Diamond - It has the ability to sense the auras of all things. It understands human speech.
• Pearl - By catching the aura emanating from others, it can read their thoughts and movements.

[edit] Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Lucario is in the game Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a playable character. In the game, he can be found in the Subspace Emissary where he'll team up with Meta Knight and Solid Snake, among other characters as the game progresses. His special moves revolve almost exclusively around aura, a trait known only in Lucario and Riolu. His final smash move is called Aura Storm.

[edit] Trophy Descriptions

An Aura Pokémon. It can track energy called Aura, which is given off by all living creatures. It's a unique combination of both Fighting- and Steel-type Pokémon. Lucario evolves from Riolu during the day if its happiness has reached a certain point. It specializes in attacks that use Aura energy, like Dark Pulse and a can't-miss technique, Aura Sphere.

Lucario's Final Smash. After flying off the screen, Lucario reappears in its center. He then launches a powerful Aura attack against all foes within a certain distance. The key to this attack is the ability to change its angle--it's a must to sweep slowly left and right to hit selected enemies multiple times. The last blow will send the victim flying away.

[edit] Anime

Lucario is used by Maylene, the third Sinnoh Gym Leader, a tag-team partner known as Riley who looks like Sir Aaron (who is seen on Iron Island) and by Cynthia, Sinnoh's Elite Four Champion.
