'''Aura Storm''' ({{ja|はどうのあらし|Hadō no Arashi}}, ''Wave-Guiding Storm'') is [[Lucario]]'s [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
''"Behold the power of Aura!"''


==Overview==
'''Aura Storm''' is [[Lucario (SSBB)|Lucario]]'s [[Final Smash]], a powerful beam attack. Lucario first flies behind the stage, then begins storing energy. He then quickly shoots out the beam directly in front of him. There seems to be two parts to this attack. The first is to rack up damage by holding the character in the beam, the other is at the end where if the beam is still on someone, it send them flying. The beam can then be controlled by tilting the control stick left and right. When Lucario flies off, if he hits an opponent, they'll take 4% damage. The Final Smash's power varies on how much damage Lucario has taken, just like his other moves. It seems to look very similar to the move Hyper Beam that [[Deoxys]] uses when coming out of the [[Poké Ball]]. The beams starting angle can be altered prior to the firing of the attack while Lucario is readying his Aura Storm in the background. Also the size of the beam depends on the size of Lucario. If you are playing a giant brawl with a mega mushroom in tow the beam will be huge and way more effective.
After saying "Watch the power of [[Aura]]!" ({{ja|波動の力をみよ!|Hadō no chikara wo miyo!}}, ''Witness the power of the wave guide!'') in Brawl, or "Max Aura!" ({{ja|はどう最大!|Hadō Saidai!}}, ''Wave-Guide Maximum!'') in Ultimate, Lucario flies to the top of the screen in the center of the stage and then shoots a powerful beam attack which can be angled left or right.


===In ''Brawl''===

{{FinalSmash}}
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 set, albeit 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%, the beam deals 57% damage and is a [[one-hit KO]] against most characters. If Lucario activates on a character, the takeoff hit will deal 21%, making it a maximum of 78% damage and an almost guaranteed one-hit KO. It can OHKO {{SSBB|Mario}} when Lucario has 156% damage (roughly a 92% Aura) from the beam alone, or 107% (roughly a 63% Aura) if hit by the takeoff.

The key to this attack is the ability to change its angle--it's a must to sweep slowly left and right to hit selected enemies multiple times. The last blow will send the victim flying away.

===In ''Ultimate''===
[[File:Lucario Final Smash SSBU Max Aura.gif|thumb|Aura Strom at high aura.]]
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!''), Mega Evolve into [[Mega Lucario]], and unleash a wider beam of Aura downwards, making it harder to [[air dodge]] through it. Despite the aesthetic similarities with its previous Final Smash seeming to indicate otherwise, Lucario's Aura (therefore, damage and stock difference) still factors into the move's strength. Additionally, all opponents are slowed down in the time between Lucario initiating the Final Smash and releasing the beam, making it easier to hit with.

==Origin==
[[File:Hyper Beam PBR.png|thumb|Hyper Beam in ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Battle Revolution}}''.]]
 
"Aura Storm" is not an actual attack in the {{uv|Pokémon}} series. However, it resembles {{iw|bulbapedia|Hyper Beam|move}}, 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's color scheme in ''Brawl'' resembles Hyper Beam in ''Pokémon Battle Revolution''.
 
While there hasn't been a move named Aura Storm in the ''Pokémon'' series, [[bulbapedia:XY032|an episode of the ''Pokémon'' anime]] was named after it in both English and Japanese, airing about 6 years after the move first appeared in ''Brawl''.
 
{{s|bulbapedia|Mega Evolution}} is a mechanic introduced in ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon X and Y}}''. Only a small number of fully-evolved Pokémon, including Lucario, can Mega Evolve, and they must also hold a special {{s|bulbapedia|Mega Stone}} unique to their species. Upon Mega Evolution, the Pokémon's stats increase tremendously and can easily allow it to turn the battle around. Lucario's Mega Stone is known as {{s|bulbapedia|Lucarionite}}.
 
Lucario's Burst Attack in ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokkén Tournament}}'', Aura Blast, is similar to Aura Storm, being a more powerful version of [[Aura Sphere]] in the form of a blue laser, and ''Brawl'' could be seen as partial inspiration for the move's appearance. Like Aura Storm, it is not a move seen in the mainline series.

==Trivia==
{{ImageCaption|File:Aura Storm (Full).jpg|File:Aura Storm SSBU (Full).png|width1=175px|width2=175px|size=370px|caption=Aura Storm's full length in ''Brawl'' and ''Ultimate'', with ''Ultimate''{{'}}s being done in a mini Custom Smash.}}
*Aura Storm's full length goes far beyond the lower [[blast line]] of large stages, being 1500 units long in ''Brawl''<ref>[https://rukaidata.com/Brawl/Lucario/subactions/FinalAttack.html Aura Storm's script, y_offset: -1500.0]</ref> and 650 in ''Ultimate''.<ref>[https://rubendal.github.io/ssbu/#/Character/Lucario Lucario's scripts, article lucario_lucariom, script FinalAttack, Y=-650]</ref>
**Despite its impressive length, in ''Ultimate'' it is still possible for the beam to not reach the blast zones. This can be demonstrated on [[Palutena's Temple]], by aiming the beam to the bottom right corner of the stage, where there will be a small region which opponents can reach, most practically with the [[Super Leaf]], where they are out of range of the beam. Additionally, in a mini [[Special Smash]], this can be done on a number of stages, including moderately sized stages like [[Hyrule Castle]], where the beam will not even reach the right edge of the stage. Thus, under these circumstances opponents are fairly easily able to be out of range of the beam.
*In ''Ultimate'' prior to 6.0.0, for unknown reasons, if Aura Storm was activated via [[Final Smash Meter]], Lucario's portrait would not show.
*While Aura Storm is one of three Final Smashes to skip an installment, along with [[Iceberg]] and [[Triple Finish]], it is the only Final Smash to do so despite the user remaining in the roster from ''Brawl'' to ''Ultimate'', as the [[Ice Climbers]], [[Pokémon Trainer]], [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]] are absent from ''3DS/Wii U''.
