Lucian | Lucian debuted in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]''. He was first seen battling with his {{p|Girafarig}} on [[television]]. Then, he met {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in a [[Pokémon Center]]. He informed them about the {{DL|Pokémon League|Champion League}} and later had a {{pkmn|battle}} against {{an|Dawn}} and her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}} using his {{p|Bronzong}}. Buizel's attacks didn't have much of an effect, if any, on Bronzong. Following {{m|Gyro Ball}}, Bronzong used {{m|Flash Cannon}} to defeat its opponent. Lucian later had a [[rematch]] against Dawn and Buizel, though he ended the battle prematurely because he saw that the pair had improved, but still needed some work. | ||
He | He made a brief cameo appearance on television in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]''. He battled [[Cynthia]] for her title of [[Pokémon Champion]] of the [[Sinnoh League]], but was defeated. He also made a brief cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''. | ||
===Character=== | |||
{{ | Lucian is polite and more than happy to help out a budding {{pkmn|Trainer}}. He builds up his defenses and continues to evade an opponent's attacks in an attempt to learn his opponent's strategy and exhaust them before striking back. Lucian is also in tune with his Pokémon's own sense of rhythm, and uses this to get the most out of them in {{pkmn|battle}}. | ||

Quotes
- Before battle
- "Ah, you timed your arrival well. I've just finished reading a book, you see. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Lucian. I am a user of the Psychic type. I must say, you've already proven yourself to be outstanding by coming this far. They say I am the toughest of the Elite Four. I'm afraid I will have to go all out against you to live up to that reputation."
- After sending out last Pokémon
- "Hmm... Now what should I do..."
- Upon being defeated
- "I see. You getting past the three before me was no fluke. Your power is real."
- After being defeated
- "Congratulations. You have beaten the Elite Four. However, that doesn't mean you're done with the Pokémon league. There remains the Champion. I should warn you—the Champion is far stronger than the Elite Four. Now, go on. Step through the doorway to your final battle."
- "I'll be reading books until the next challenger arrives. That will calm my nerves, so that I may deal with all situations without panicking."
- First variant
- "...Ah, hello. You’re here to read, too? Books are wonderful things. The thoughts of people written in books stretch beyond time and space. I was just reading a book of philosophy from an ancient, far-off land. Their 'universe' was a word that described both space and time. That people even back then understood the basic tenets of the universe... It fills me with a serene sense of inspiration. I imagine we'll see each other again at the Pokémon League. Take care."
- Second variant
- "...Ah, hello. You’re here to read, too? Books are wonderful things. The thoughts of people written in books stretch beyond time and space. I was just reading a collection of observations on Pokémon in the wild. One article addresses the question why Pokémon would go into a Poké Ball. According to this article, this behavior is based on instinct. A weakened Pokémon will curl up tight in an effort to heal itself. The Poké Ball was invented to take advantage of that protective instinct. I imagine we'll see each other again at the Pokémon League. Take care."
- Third variant
- "...Ah, hello. You’re here to read, too? Books are wonderful things. The thoughts of people written in books stretch beyond time and space. I was just reading an analytical tome on humankind. It examines the human species from cultural and social perspectives. This is a thought-provoking quote: 'It all began without humans. The end will also be without humans.' The world we share with Pokémon... Does it exist for us? I imagine we'll see each other again at the Pokémon League. Take care."
- Fourth variant
- "...Ah, hello. You’re here to read, too? Books are wonderful things. The thoughts of people written in books stretch beyond time and space. I was just reading a collection of essays on the science-fiction genre. There was one quote attributed to a novelist I found remarkable. 'Though love may lose, kindness wins.' I find that philosophical and, at the same time, compassionate. I imagine we'll see each other again at the Pokémon League. Take care."
- Fifth variant
- "...Ah, hello. You’re here to read, too? Books are wonderful things. The thoughts of people written in books stretch beyond time and space. I was just reading a collection of letters written by an artist long ago. More precisely, they were written to the artist's younger brother. 'The stars above tantalize from across infinite space. Feeling their gaze from so far away, I am charmed again by life.' The artist must have come to a conclusion seeing the night sky... It's an affirmation of life. It's very moving. I imagine we'll see each other again at the Pokémon League. Take care."

In the anime
Lucian debuted in An Elite Meet and Greet!. He was first seen battling with his Girafarig on television. Then, he met Ash and his friends in a Pokémon Center. He informed them about the Champion League and later had a battle against Dawn and her Buizel using his Bronzong. Buizel's attacks didn't have much of an effect, if any, on Bronzong. Following Gyro Ball, Bronzong used Flash Cannon to defeat its opponent. Lucian later had a rematch against Dawn and Buizel, though he ended the battle prematurely because he saw that the pair had improved, but still needed some work.
He made a brief cameo appearance on television in Top-Down Training!. He battled Cynthia for her title of Pokémon Champion of the Sinnoh League, but was defeated. He also made a brief cameo appearance in the ending credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.
Character
Lucian is polite and more than happy to help out a budding Trainer. He builds up his defenses and continues to evade an opponent's attacks in an attempt to learn his opponent's strategy and exhaust them before striking back. Lucian is also in tune with his Pokémon's own sense of rhythm, and uses this to get the most out of them in battle.

Bronzong is Lucian's main Pokémon. The first time he used it was in An Elite Meet and Greet!, where it battled Dawn's newly captured Buizel. Because Buizel didn't listen to Dawn, he quickly lost. Later in the same episode, they had a rematch, and because Buizel was now listening to Dawn, the battle went better. However, Lucian eventually recalled Bronzong, saying that he had just wanted to prove Buizel's potential for becoming strong.
Lucian's match against Cynthia's Garchomp was televised in Top-Down Training!, but the Bronze Bell Pokémon was soon knocked out by the Mach Pokémon's powerful Giga Impact. Bronzong also appeared alongside Lucian during the credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions. Bronzong's known moves are Iron Defense, Gyro Ball, and Flash Cannon. | ||
