<!--Remember, Lucario, like all Pokémon, is to be referred to as "it" instead of "he".-->

After saying "Watch the power of [[Aura]]!" ({{ja|波動の力をみるよ！|Hadō no chikara wa miru yo!}}, ''Witness the power of the wave guide!''), Lucario flies to the top of the screen in the center of the stage and then shoots a powerful beam attack. Any character in the way of the beam takes minor [[damage]] if they are farther away, but a lot more when up close. It also spikes with a set but high knockback when used up close. Lucario then holds its hands above its head as it readies the attack, before launching a large beam of Aura downwards. The attack hits multiple times before a big finisher that has significant [[KO]] power. Lucario can angle the beam sideways during both the windup and the launch, which is a decent way to catch unhit enemies, although angling can also free trapped targets (which otherwise cannot escape). The move is one of the more difficult Final Smashes to use effectively, as flying or floating characters, or characters with great vertical recovery like {{SSBB|Luigi}} and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} may be able to easily outrun the beam, while other characters can manage to dodge most of the attack depending on the stage.

As Aura Storm is an Aura-based attack, it has greater power and [[knockback]] if Lucario has taken a good amount of damage. With Lucario at 170%, it deals 78% damage and is a [[one-hit KO]] against most characters. If Lucario activates on a character, the takeoff hit will deal 28%, making it a maximum of 105% damage and an almost guaranteed one-hit KO.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', while the attack is mostly the same, Lucario will now shout "Max Aura!" ({{ja|はどう最大!|Hadō Saidai!}}, ''Wave-Guide Maximum!''), transform into [[Mega Lucario]], and unleash a wider beam of Aura downwards.

"Aura Storm" is not an actual attack in the {{uv|Pokémon}} series. However, it resembles [[bulbapedia:Hyper Beam (move)|Hyper Beam]], a special Normal-type attack that, while very powerful, forces the user to waste a turn recharging after a successful use. Most fully evolved Pokémon can learn this move, including [[Deoxys]] and Lucario itself.

'''Aura Storm'''

:''Lucario's Final Smash. After flying off the screen, Lucario reappears in its center. It then launches a powerful Aura attack against all foes within a certain distance. The key to this attack is the ability to change its angle--it's a must sweep slowly left and right to hit selected enemies multiple times. The last blow will send the victim flying away.''

*Aura Storm's length goes far beyond the lower [[blast line]] of large stages.  

*Lucario's Synergy Burst in ''Pokkén Tournament'', Aura Blast, is similar to Aura Storm, being a more powerful version of [[Aura Sphere]] in the form of a blue laser that doesn't appear in the mainline series.

*Two Final Smashes in later games have similar functions to Aura Storm, being {{SSB4|Ness}} and {{SSB4|Lucas}}’s [[PK Starstorm]] in ''[[Smash 4]]'' and {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}}’s Final Smash in ''[[Ultimate]]''.

*Aura Storm is currently the only Final Smash to return in a game (from ''Brawl'') after previously being replaced (in ''Smash 4'').
