'''Lucas''' (Japanese: '''コウキ''' ''Kōki'') is the male [[player character]] of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. His female counterpart is {{ga|Dawn}}.
'''Lucas''' (Japanese: '''コウキ''' ''Kouki'') is the male [[player character]] of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and their [[Generation VIII]] remakes {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}. His female counterpart is {{ga|Dawn}}.


==Appearance==
==Terminology==
In Diamond and Pearl, Lucas wears a white undershirt with a black vest over it, a red scarf, blue baggy jeans, with red and grey shoes. In Platinum, he now wears an outfit more suitable for the weather in the game, which is a dark red full-sleeved shirt with a dark blue and black jacket over it, a white scarf wrapped around his neck, denim black pants with dark gray and white running shoes, and a dark red hat with a white and black semi [[Poké Ball]] on the back.
'''Lucas''' (Japanese: '''コウキ''' ''Kouki'') is his name when he appears as a [[non-player character]] in the [[core series]] games, and is also the name of {{mas|Lucas|his counterpart}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]].


==In the games==
Some screenshots of {{game|Platinum}} on the Japanese Nintendo website refer to Lucas as '''プラット''' (''Plat'').<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/cpuj/wi-fi/index.html Pokémon Platinum on Nintendo] (Japanese)</ref> [https://youtu.be/gU648Rj3wb8 A trailer] for {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} refers to Lucas in English as "'''Koki'''", his Japanese official name.
Lucas lives in [[Twinleaf Town]] with his mother and dreams big, so he and his {{ga|Barry|best friend}} (and soon-to-be [[rival]]) have high hopes of catching the {{p|Mesprit|Legendary Pokémon}} of their nearby [[Lake Verity|lake]]. After meeting [[Professor Rowan]] and his assistant {{ga|Dawn}}, they are attacked by wild {{p|Starly}} and, as a last resort, use the Pokémon in the briefcase the Professor has forgotten. After bringing the Pokémon back Lucas receives the Pokémon he used as well as a Pokédex and goes on to gather the eight Badges of Sinnoh, defeat Team Galactic and conquer the Pokémon League all before taking on the Battle Tower.


In {{game|Platinum}}, Lucas and Barry instead go to visit Professor Rowan at his lab rather than go to the lake in search of a Pokémon of the same rarity as a [[red Gyarados]]. They receive their Pokémon on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}} when Professor Rowan realizes that they are so dedicated to Pokémon as to attempt to travel from Twinleaf Town to [[Sandgem Town]] through the [[tall grass]] without any Pokémon of their own.
==In the core series games==
===As the protagonist===
====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
Lucas lives in [[Twinleaf Town]] with his mother. Lucas and {{ga|Barry}} both see a television program about a [[red Gyarados]], so the two head to the nearby [[Lake Verity]] in search of a similar Pokémon. As the enter the lake area, Professor Rowan and his assistant {{ga|Dawn}} are leaving, but have inadvertently left a briefcase behind. Lucas and Barry wander into the tall grass, but are suddenly attacked by wild {{p|Starly}}; as a last resort, they each use one of the Pokémon in the briefcase the Professor has forgotten. The two take their Pokémon to Sandgem Town to return them to Professor Rowan, but Rowan decides to let the two keep their Pokémon, and also gives them each a [[Pokédex]].


He has to stop [[Team Galactic]] from trying to use either {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}} to destroy the entire universe in order to create a new one.
Lucas goes on to gather the eight [[Gym Badge]]s of [[Sinnoh]], defeat [[Team Galactic]], and conquer the {{si|Pokémon League}}. He has to stop [[Team Galactic]] from trying to use either {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}}{{sup/8|SP}} to destroy the entire universe in order to create a new one.


In Pokémon Platinum, Team Galactic attempts to use both {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, but they are stopped by {{p|Giratina}}. Finally, Lucas has to go to the [[Distortion World]] and face Giratina, in order to stop both worlds from destroying each other.
====Pokémon Platinum====
Lucas lives in [[Twinleaf Town]] with his mother. Lucas and {{ga|Barry}} both see a television program about Professor Rowan, so the two head to [[Sandgem Town]] to visit Professor Rowan at his lab to get some Pokémon of their own. They receive their Pokémon on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}} when Professor Rowan realizes that they are so dedicated to Pokémon that they would attempt to travel from Twinleaf Town to [[Sandgem Town]] through the [[tall grass]] without any Pokémon of their own.


If the player chooses Dawn, he will become {{Prof|Rowan}}'s assistant for the game. Lucas lives in [[Sandgem Town]] with his little sister, grandfather, and father—who works as an assistant of Professor Rowan. He is already the Professor's assistant at the beginning of the game. He also demonstrates to the player how to capture Pokémon by capturing a wild {{p|Bidoof}}.
Lucas goes on to gather the eight [[Gym Badge]]s of [[Sinnoh]], defeat [[Team Galactic]], and conquer the {{si|Pokémon League}}. He has to go to the [[Distortion World]] and face Giratina, in order to stop both worlds from destroying each other.


[[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Years later]], his exploits are referenced by [[Cynthia]], who remembers a young Trainer who defeated her.
====Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2====
In Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, the player character from Diamond, Pearl and Platinum and their exploits are referenced by [[Cynthia]], who remembers a young Trainer who had defeated her.


===Pokémon===
===As a non-playable character===
===={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}====
If the player chooses Dawn, Lucas appears in the game as an NPC. He serves as [[Professor Rowan]]'s assistant. He lives in [[Sandgem Town]] with her little sister, grandfather, and father—who also works as an assistant of Professor Rowan. He received his [[first partner Pokémon]] before the player, having either a {{p|Turtwig}}, {{p|Chimchar}} or {{p|Piplup}}—the Pokémon he has is always the one that has a type disadvantage against the player's first partner Pokémon.

It's a shop where you can buy and sell all sorts of items. <player>, since you're a rookie Trainer, you won't be able to buy very much stuff. Don't worry about it, OK? Oh, yeah, right! <player>... You should let your family know you're helping Prof. Rowan put together his Pokédex. Sometimes, you have to go far away, so you should let someone know. Oh, but first, go heal up your Pokémon at the Pokémon Center. You'll be safe then. OK, be seeing you!"''

:''"Sometimes a patch of grass sparkles when a Poke Radar is used. They say a different-colored Pokemon is hiding there! I wonder if that's true?"''
:''"Hi, <player>! How's your Poke Radar working out? When you use it, do you sometimes see more than one patch of tall grass rustling? Did you notice that patches farther away give you a better chance of seeing the same kind of Pokémon in a row?"''

:''"<player>! Wow! I don't know what to say! I mean, it's so awesome and all... Sincerely, congratulations for completing the National Pokédex!"''

*Catching tutorial
:''"All right! I got its HP down! Time to throw a Poké Ball!"''
*After tutorial
:''"And that's how it's done. Actually, I should have lowered the target's HP some more. Yup, the important thing is to lower the Pokémon's {{stat|HP}} as much as possible. See, a healthy Pokémon isn't easy to catch. Oh, yeah. They also get easier to catch if you make one of your Pokémon put them to sleep or such. Here, <player>, I'll give you five Poké Balls to get you started. If you have lots of Pokémon with you, you'll be able to travel farther. That way, you'll have a better shot at meeting more Pokémon. See you around!"''
*Poké Radar Tutorial
:''"<Player>. Let me explain how the Poké Radar works. Let's give it a go. When you use the Poké Radar... There! Did you see the tall grass rustling? There's a Pokémon in that patch of tall grass. Go in there, and the Pokémon will come leaping out. Now, here's the strange part. If you see another patch of rustling grass far away, it means the same kind of Pokémon is hiding there. So, if your aim is to keep seeing the same kind of Pokémon, you should consider using Repels."''

* Lucas is 4'8" (142&nbsp;cm) tall and weighs 83.8&nbsp;lbs (38&nbsp;kg). This was confirmed by checking the heights and weights of certain Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]]. As such, {{p|Fearow}}, {{p|Sudowoodo}}, {{p|Yanma}}, {{p|Skuntank}}, and {{p|Togekiss}} are all the same weight as Lucas.
* One of {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s palette swaps in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]] has a color scheme based on Lucas's design in Diamond and Pearl.

Lucas (Japanese: コウキ Kouki) is the male player character of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum and their Generation VIII remakes Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. His female counterpart is Dawn.

Terminology

Lucas (Japanese: コウキ Kouki) is his name when he appears as a non-player character in the core series games, and is also the name of his counterpart in Pokémon Masters EX.

Some screenshots of Pokémon Platinum on the Japanese Nintendo website refer to Lucas as プラット (Plat).[2] A trailer for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl refers to Lucas in English as "Koki", his Japanese official name.

In the core series games

As the protagonist

Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

Lucas lives in Twinleaf Town with his mother. Lucas and Barry both see a television program about a red Gyarados, so the two head to the nearby Lake Verity in search of a similar Pokémon. As the enter the lake area, Professor Rowan and his assistant Dawn are leaving, but have inadvertently left a briefcase behind. Lucas and Barry wander into the tall grass, but are suddenly attacked by wild Starly; as a last resort, they each use one of the Pokémon in the briefcase the Professor has forgotten. The two take their Pokémon to Sandgem Town to return them to Professor Rowan, but Rowan decides to let the two keep their Pokémon, and also gives them each a Pokédex.

Lucas goes on to gather the eight Gym Badges of Sinnoh, defeat Team Galactic, and conquer the Pokémon League. He has to stop Team Galactic from trying to use either DialgaDBD or PalkiaPSP to destroy the entire universe in order to create a new one.

Pokémon Platinum

Lucas lives in Twinleaf Town with his mother. Lucas and Barry both see a television program about Professor Rowan, so the two head to Sandgem Town to visit Professor Rowan at his lab to get some Pokémon of their own. They receive their Pokémon on Route 201 when Professor Rowan realizes that they are so dedicated to Pokémon that they would attempt to travel from Twinleaf Town to Sandgem Town through the tall grass without any Pokémon of their own.

Lucas goes on to gather the eight Gym Badges of Sinnoh, defeat Team Galactic, and conquer the Pokémon League. He has to go to the Distortion World and face Giratina, in order to stop both worlds from destroying each other.

Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2

In Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, the player character from Diamond, Pearl and Platinum and their exploits are referenced by Cynthia, who remembers a young Trainer who had defeated her.

As a non-playable character

If the player chooses Dawn, Lucas appears in the game as an NPC. He serves as Professor Rowan's assistant. He lives in Sandgem Town with her little sister, grandfather, and father—who also works as an assistant of Professor Rowan. He received his first partner Pokémon before the player, having either a Turtwig, Chimchar or Piplup—the Pokémon he has is always the one that has a type disadvantage against the player's first partner Pokémon.

He demonstrates how to catch Pokémon to the player by catching a wild Bidoof.
