Riolu is a small, blue, canine Pokémon. It has black legs and torso, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. It has rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws. It has a black "mask" and red eyes. It stands on its toes instead of its entire foot. It is sensitive to a special type of energy called [[Aura]]; however, It does not have the ability to fully use these powers, although it can still emanate these waves to communicate and sense them, albeit only in ripples. It has developed two black appendages that hang down from its head, which rise when Riolu reads or manipulates aura, a special energy that it senses. | Riolu is a small, blue, canine Pokémon.

Trivia
- Due to Riolu's combination of Abilities, Steadfast can only activate in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky if Riolu becomes cross-eyed, barring being confronted with a foe that has Mold Breaker.
- When Riolu became a starter in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky it became the first starter Pokémon to be unable to be recruited or captured in another game of its trio as it cannot be found in Explorers of Darkness without using Wonder Mail.
- Riolu is the only baby Pokémon that evolves into a Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution.
- Riolu is also the only baby Pokémon introduced after Generation II that can be bred without requiring one of its parents to be holding an incense.
Origin
Riolu appears to be based on the Egyptian god Anubis, who has the head of a jackal. It may also be based on a raccoon due to the mask-like markings on its face and its small pointed ears.
Name origin
Riolu is Lucario with the first and last syllables reversed and the ca omitted.
