*Lucario is one of only three characters in ''Brawl'' able to perform three aerials in one short hop (in Lucario's case, rising forward aerial, two down aerials), the others being {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} (three up aerials) and {{SSBB|Luigi}} (rising forward aerial, forward aerial, then neutral aerial or up aerial).

*Lucario and the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} are the only characters in ''Brawl'' that have a different dubber in every language.
*In Spanish, Italian, and German versions of ''Brawl'', Lucario's standard grunts from Bill Rogers are kept, while any spoken dialogue is done by different voice actors. Oddly, the French version does not follow this rule.
*If Lucario is at above 170% and is behind by two stocks, its forward smash will become the most powerful in the game, with even more knockback than {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s.

*Lucario is the first Pokémon to be speak English in a ''Smash'' game.
*It was a common belief around the time of ''Brawl's'' release that Lucario "replaced" Mewtwo from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', due to them having a similar [[neutral special]], and those upset at Mewtwo's exclusion naturally looking for a scapegoat to blame for it (or accept as the reason why Mewtwo was cut). However, [[Beta elements (SSBB)#Scrapped characters|leftover data on ''Brawl''{{'}}s disc]] shows that both Mewtwo and Lucario were both meant to be playable in ''Brawl'', and just basic observance of their movesets and overall designs shows them to be nothing alike aside from their similar neutral specials. A similar and equally untrue belief existed for {{SSBB|Ike}} and {{SSBM|Roy}}.

*Not counting ''Melee'', Lucario is the first playable Pokémon whose on-screen appearance does not involve it being released from a Poké Ball. It would be followed by {{SSB4|Mewtwo}}.
