Trivia

• Luxray is one of only two second stage electric Pokémon that was released in the same generation as its evolutionary relatives, the other being Ampharos.
• Unlike most Electric-types, Luxray has Speed as its lowest stat. It shares this trait with Ampharos and Magnezone.

Origin

Luxray is based on an adult male lion.

Name origin

Luxray is derived from lux, a measure of brightness, and x-ray, referring to its x-ray eyes. Its Japanese name is a combination of Roentgen, the physicist who discovered X-rays, and 虎 tora, tiger. Its German name, Luxtra, comes from lux and Strahl.
