Lucas's PSI Magnet is centered around his outstretched hand: while it does not visibly cover his whole body nor the area behind him, Lucas will instantly turn around when hit from the back. Lucas's version of this attack also has a hitbox on his hand when released, which deals 9% damage and is a moderately strong [[semi-spike]]. Though it has little use due to the delayed nature of it and its extremely small hitbox making it very difficult to land, tactical use of it can [[bait]] opponents and its horizontal knockback can prove effective in certain circumstances. Additionally, Lucas recovers more percentage than Ness when he absorbs a projectile (2.5x the damage the projectile would have dealt normally, a 56% improvement over Ness's). Its startup and ending lag are much lower than Ness's version.

==Magnet Pull==
'''Magnet Pull''' is an [[advanced technique]] exclusive to {{SSBB|Lucas}} in ''Brawl'' first publicly discovered by Kink-Link5. The technique involves becoming airborne, performing either a [[wavebounce]] or a [[waveland]] with [[PK Fire]], then immediately performing PSI Magnet. If done correctly, Lucas will launch forward a great distance, effectively being a longer waveland. Magnet Pull can be useful to approach a far away opponent or allow Lucas to recover from very far off the stage.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HJ0fRq3G_o Magnet Pull tutorial]</ref> Engine-wide physics changes to ''Smash 4'' rendered this technique impossible, and it has yet to return to the series.
===Reverse Magnet Pull===
Setting up a waveland with PK Fire, then immediately [[tapping]] the [[control stick]] opposite to Lucas' facing direction while activating PSI Magnet will have Lucas launch in that direction instead. This variant is more difficult to perform, requiring more precise actions, but is useful for running away and zoning, while also increasing the KO potential of PSI Magnet by it incidentally becoming a combo starter.
