(Japanese: ルシアス Lucius), also known as the (Japanese: いにしえの冒険者 Ancient Adventurer), is a recurring character in Pokémon Horizons: The Series. He is the main reason Roy wanted to become a Trainer, and the truth behind his legend serves as one of his motivations.
History
The Ancient Adventurer was first mentioned by Roy when describing his feats to Liko in HZ004. According to him, the Ancient Adventurer traveled through different regions and captured several Legendary Pokémon and treasures around the world. A group of his friends came to be collectively known as the Explorers.
He briefly appeared in a fantasy in HZ006 when Roy told his grandfather about his dreams.
In HZ012, just after the Rising Volt Tacklers helped restore a forest that had been destroyed by a wildfire, the Pokémon in Liko's pendant came to life. With Arboliva's assistance, the Pokémon showed Liko and Roy a vision of the past where Lucius asked Arboliva to look for something. Later, Liko and Roy read a book by Liko's father that told the history of Lucius's adventures, based on stories told by Liko's grandmother Diana.
Lucius appeared again in a vision for Liko, Roy, and Friede in HZ023. This time, the mysterious adventurer was seen talking to Moltres about achieving something called "Rakua".
In HZ024, Diana revealed that she found a diary in her childhood with memories of Lucius' adventures. She also revealed that Rakua is the name of the paradise that Lucius was looking for and that at some point Terapagos was with Lucius on this journey.
Character
Although much of Lucius is based on legend and myth, his deeds have resonated for years. During the flashbacks in which he was seen, it was shown that Lucius has a deep connection with his Pokémon.
Pokémon
A hundred years ago, Lucius traveled with the Black Rayquaza and five Pokémon he encountered throughout the various regions he traveled. Collectively, they are known as the (Japanese: 六英雄 Six Heroes). In an as-yet-unexplained way, Lucius's Poké Balls have been scattered around the world.
Lucius kept all his Pokémon in an Ancient Poké Ball.
This listing is of Lucius's known Pokémon in the anime:
Roaming the world
| Debut | HZ006 |

Years ago, Roy's grandfather found a mysterious Poké Ball on the beach of his hometown. Many years later, he gave this item to his grandson. Unbeknownst to him, the mysterious Poké Ball contained a Black Rayquaza inside of it. In HZ006, Liko's pendant caused Rayquaza to emerge from its Poké Ball and, after a brief battle with those present on the island, disappeared into the sky.
In HZ012, it was revealed that Rayquaza was Lucius's main Pokémon and that about a hundred years ago, it traveled the world with him and found five other Pokémon that became his allies in the search for the promised paradise.
Rayquaza's only known move is Draco Meteor.
With Liko

Arboliva made its debut as a guardian of a forest that Liko, Roy, and Mollie visited. Around its neck was the same kind of Poké Balls that had contained the Black Rayquaza that Roy was looking for. In HZ012, Arboliva helped Liko and Roy restore the forest. After completely healing the forest, Arboliva returned to its Poké Ball and decided to be under the care of Liko.
It was later revealed that Arboliva was one of Lucius's Pokemon that was responsible for "dressing wounds".
None of Arboliva's moves are known and its Ability is Seed Sower.

This Galarian Moltres was the third Pokémon revealed from Lucius's party. Liko and Roy found it in the Galar Mine, where it easily overpowered them, forcing them to retreat, leaving Friede and Amethio to confront it instead before escaping as well. Moltres was then confronted by Liko, Roy, and Friede again, but this time with the Trainers being successfully able to hold their own in battle with their Pokémon, allowing them to calm it down with Sprigatito's aromatic leafage with help from Lucius's Arboliva, Moltres eventually calmed down enough to return to its Ancient Poké Ball, allowing itself to be taken care of by Liko and the others.
Moltres's known moves are Air Slash, Fiery Wrath, Wing Attack, and Hurricane.
