Trivia
- Lucario's English name was revealed on February 9, 2006, when the title for the movie Lucario and the Mystery of Mew was announced.
- Before Pokémon Diamond and Pearl were released, many believed Lucario to be a legendary Pokémon, based on its starring role in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. This has since been proven untrue, as it is readily available in the Generation IV games, and even evolves from a Pokémon, Riolu.
- This makes it the first non-legendary Pokémon to be in a central role in a Pokémon movie.
- Lucario is the only Pokémon other than the Cubone evolutionary family to learn Template:M2 attack.
- Lucario is one of three Pokémon on the player's team in the demo version of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
- Lucario is the first Template:Type2 Pokémon to be a fighter in the Super Smash Bros. series.
- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Lucario.
Origin
Lucario appears to be based on the Egyptian god Anubis, who has the head of a jackal. It also seems to be based on an Egyptian boxer. Boxing is a sport that is believed to have origins in Egypt. The black appendages on the back of its head are used to detect the auras of creatures and objects around it. While Lucario reads aura, it closes its eyes, and thus the appendages and the way they look "tied" around its face appear to be based on someone being blindfolded.
Name origin
Lucario's name may be a corrupted, backward version of oracle. It may also be a reference to Cairo, Egypt. The "lu" may come from "lupine," meaning "wolf," in reference to its canine-like appearance.
