====[[Riley's Lucario]]====
This Lucario debuted in ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'' at [[Iron Island]]. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} traveled there after being contacted by {{an|Barry}}, they found the local {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon fighting brutally against each other and the other Pokémon on the island. When a crazed {{p|Aggron}} attacked Ash, [[Riley]] stepped in and had Lucario attack it with {{m|Close Combat}}. Despite being a Steel-type as well, Lucario wasn't affected like the others of its type due to its strong [[aura]].
 
===Minor appearances===
Lucario also makes a brief appearance at the intro of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where one is shown dodging {{p|Rayquaza}}'s {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
 
A Lucario and {{p|Froslass}} were seen in a Double contest on TV in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]''.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Dusty.png|thumb|Dusty's Lucario costume]]
* Lucario's English name was revealed on February 9, 2006 with the announcement of the title of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.
* Before {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} were released, many fans assumed Lucario would be a [[legendary Pokémon]], based on its starring role in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''. This has since been proven untrue, as it is readily available in the [[Generation IV]] games, is under ownership by NPCs, and even [[Evolution|evolves]] from a Pokémon, {{p|Riolu}}.
* In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], Lucario is the only one out of three Gem Guardians that is not a legendary Pokémon.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], a Lucario costume is seen, worn by [[Dusty]].
* Two of Lucario's [[Ability|abilities]] relate to {{status|Flinch|flinching}}. {{a|Steadfast}} makes Lucario faster when flinching, whilst {{a|Inner Focus}} protects it from it.
** Due to this combination, Steadfast can only activate in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]] if Lucario becomes {{DL|Seeds|X-Eye Seed|cross-eyed}}.
* Lucario can learn {{m|Ice Punch}}, {{m|ThunderPunch}}, and even {{m|Blaze Kick}}, but cannot learn {{m|Fire Punch}}.
* Lucario and {{p|Poliwrath}} are the only {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon able to learn {{m|Psychic}}, not counting {{p|Meditite}}, {{p|Medicham}}, {{p|Gallade}} and {{p|Meloetta}} as they are part {{type2|Psychic}}.
* Lucario is the only Pokémon that learns {{m|Dragon Pulse}} through leveling up who is not a {{type2|Dragon}} or related to one through evolution.
 
===Origin===
Lucario appears to be based on the Egyptian god of funerals, {{wp|Anubis}}, who has the head of a {{wp|jackal}}. Anubis's role in Egyptian mythology was to judge the hearts of deceased souls based on their actions during life. This resembles Lucario's ability to see a life form's aura. It also seems to be based on an Egyptian boxer. {{wp|Boxing}} is a sport that is believed to have origins in Egypt. The markings on Lucario's face resemble a mask.
 
====Name origin====
Its name probably comes from Lupaster, a subspecies of the {{wp|Canis Aureus}}, the Egyptian Jackal. Lucario's name possibly derives also from part of a Japanese spelling of {{wp|oracle}} or {{wp|orichalcum}} in reverse, reflecting its mythical design, its ability to see into the supernatural, and its Steel-type. It may also refer to {{wp|Cairo, Egypt}}. The word {{wp|pharaoh}} may also be involved. Also, it may be derived from the Greek word ''lykos'' meaning "wolf".

Lucario (Japanese: ルカリオ Lucario) is a dual-type Fighting/Steel Pokémon.

It evolves from Riolu when leveled up with high friendship during the day.

Biology

Physiology

Lucario is a bipedal, jackal-like Pokémon, with fur that is predominantly blue and black. It possesses a short, round spike on the back of each forepaw, in addition to a third on its chest. Lucario's snout and ears are longer than those of its pre-evolution Riolu. It possesses cream-colored fur on its torso, and blue fur on its thighs that appears to resemble shorts. Lucario stands its toes rather than on its entire foot. It has developed four small black appendages on its head, which rise when Lucario reads or manipulates aura.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Lucario are sensitive to a special type of energy called aura. Lucario can study this energy to predict the movements of their opponents and track their quarries. They also have the power to manipulate this energy in an offensive manner, in the form of explosive spheres of aura energy. Lucario can understand human speech, and have been reported to communicate with humans through telepathy.

Behavior

Lucario are considered to be prideful creatures, and are extremely loyal to their trainers. Lucario also seem to have a natural sense of justice.

Habitat

Lucario usually live deep in mountains very far from people to improve their skills. Therefore, like Milotic and Togekiss, they are some of the rarest non-legendary Pokémon known, and finding a wild Lucario is excruciatingly difficult.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

The Lucario in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew was shown eating Berries and plants, like roses. Lucario has been seen eating chocolate, introduced by Max with it gaining no ill-effects from the theobromine, though not part of its natural diet.

In the anime

Major appearances

Sir Aaron's Lucario

Lucario was one of the main Pokémon in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. It belonged to Sir Aaron and was sealed away in his staff for a thousand years. It was released by Ash during a festival, and helped guide him to the Tree of Beginning after Pikachu is teleported there by Mew.

Maylene's Lucario

It was first seen in Lost Leader Strategy! battling with Maylene in their training. Lucario used Aura Sphere to stop the battle of Electabuzz, Piplup and Pikachu. It is also seen battling Paul's Pokémon in a flashback.

Lucario was seen again in Crossing the Battle Line! where it battled in Dawn's Gym battle against Maylene. It defeated Dawn's Ambipom and Piplup.

It appeared once more in A Triple Fighting Chance! where it battled in Ash's Gym battle against Maylene. It defeated Ash's Staravia and Chimchar, but was knocked out along with Ash's Buizel, resulting in a tie.

Lucario was last seen in Enter Galactic! when it helped Ash and the others defeat Saturn and Team Galactic.

Riley's Lucario

This Lucario debuted in Steeling Peace of Mind! at Iron Island. When Ash and his friends traveled there after being contacted by Barry, they found the local Template:Type2 Pokémon fighting brutally against each other and the other Pokémon on the island. When a crazed Aggron attacked Ash, Riley stepped in and had Lucario attack it with Close Combat. Despite being a Steel-type as well, Lucario wasn't affected like the others of its type due to its strong aura.

Minor appearances

Lucario also makes a brief appearance at the intro of The Rise of Darkrai, where one is shown dodging Rayquaza's Hyper Beam.

A Lucario and Froslass were seen in a Double contest on TV in Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!.

Trivia

Dusty's Lucario costume

Origin

Lucario appears to be based on the Egyptian god of funerals, Anubis, who has the head of a jackal. Anubis's role in Egyptian mythology was to judge the hearts of deceased souls based on their actions during life. This resembles Lucario's ability to see a life form's aura. It also seems to be based on an Egyptian boxer. Boxing is a sport that is believed to have origins in Egypt. The markings on Lucario's face resemble a mask.

Name origin

Its name probably comes from Lupaster, a subspecies of the Canis Aureus, the Egyptian Jackal. Lucario's name possibly derives also from part of a Japanese spelling of oracle or orichalcum in reverse, reflecting its mythical design, its ability to see into the supernatural, and its Steel-type. It may also refer to Cairo, Egypt. The word pharaoh may also be involved. Also, it may be derived from the Greek word lykos meaning "wolf".
