Character Sheet: The Riolu Line

RIOLU/LUCARIO


Skipping over Munchlax, we now have easily the single most popular Pokemon of Gen IV, standing strong as one of the all-time most popular Pokemon of the whole dex to this day. And its baby. Riolu and Lucario are based on Anubis, and generally jackals from around Ancient Egypt, with the ability to sense and manipulate their own and others' aura. They also pull from the mythical metal Orichalcum, which makes up the spike in Lucario's paws and chest, hence his Steel typing. Lucario's already been in Smash, basically since his inception.
