Luxio (Japanese: ルクシオ Luxio) is an Electric-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Shinx starting at level 15, and evolves into Luxray starting at level 30.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

Luxio is sometimes referred to as looking like a young lion. It has a black mane around its face, unlike its pre-evolution, Shinx. It also has two yellow rings around each of its front legs, whereas Shinx only has one around each.

Gender differences

The tufts of hair in a male Luxio's mane are longer than those of the female. Similar to Shinx, the portions of blue on a Luxio's hind legs are longer for females.

Special abilities

Behavior

Luxio communicate among each other using electrical pulses from their claws.

Habitat

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

In the wild, Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray generally hunt for food. Evidence of this is plainly given in Luxray's Pokédex entry: "It has eyes that can see through anything... it can spot prey hidden behind solid objects."

In the anime

Luxio appeared in the movie The Rise of Darkrai.

In the manga

Berlitz was attacked by a pack of Shinx and Luxio.

In the TCG
