Lucario (ルカリオ, Rukario) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. 4. It was announced on January 31st, 2014, the same day that Super Smash Bros. Brawl was released in Japan; according to an extra post on the Miiverse reveal, this timing was done to commend the Brawl developers for succeeding in adding Lucario to said game. Like many of the other characters in Smash 4 that come from cartoonish franchises, Lucario has a less realistic and more sleek look than it did in Brawl, with its fur being less accentuated and its proportions more akin to its recent three-dimensional appearances in Pokédex 3D Pro, Pokémon X and Pokémon Y.
Lucario's voice actor from the film Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, Sean Schemmel, reprises his role as Lucario's voice actor for its appearance in Super Smash Bros. 4, as opposed to Bill Rogers, who voiced it in Brawl.
Changes from Brawl
Despite being a high tier character in Brawl, Lucario has been heavily buffed in its transition from Brawl to SSB4. The influence of Lucario's aura has been increased, giving him a better recovery and increased range on some of his attacks.
Up tilt is much faster, and has gained more KO power.- All of Lucario's aerials are faster.
- Its other aerial attacks deal more damage at 0%.
- Double Team's range has also increased.
- Down aerial's ending lag has almost been reduced entirely.
- Lucario's grab is slightly faster.
- Aura Sphere can achieve larger sizes, with its max size now being even larger than Lucario himself. Aura Sphere's graphics have also been altered, and smoke appears behind Lucario as the projectile is fired and is stronger. It is also stronger.
- Extreme Speed is now affected by aura, allowing it to cover massive distances at high damage, with range comparable to Brawl's at zero damage. The move also now does damage at the end and have visible aura streams.
- Force Palm's non-grabbing portion appears to be faster and has a much larger blast, which scales with Aura. It also appears to produce much stronger knockback.
All of Lucario's standard ground attacks (except for forward tilt) deal slightly less damage.- Force Palm's stronger knockback reduces the amount of follow-ups Lucario previously had (such as multiple Force Palms).
- Its forward aerial has slightly higher base knockback at 0%, making it harder to use in combos.
- Its neutral aerial, and up aerial deal less damage at 0%.
Aura Sphere now makes a different sound while being charged.- Lucario's dash attack has a somewhat tweaked animation. It spins a bit to the side during the kick portion of the attack.
- Lucario is slightly lighter than in Brawl.
- When successful, Double Team causes Lucario's eyes to glow.
- Lucario's animations for charging his smash attacks have been slightly changed. Instead of fully making movement, he stays in place.
- Lucario now crouches when performing its up smash.
- Up taunt now has more aura visuals.
- Lucario has a completely new Final Smash, Mega Lucario, which raises its aura power to maximum regardless of its damage.

Trivia
- While the transformation into Mega Lucario in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS has a lot of starting lag, said lag is practically non-existent in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
- On the Super Smash Bros. official Facebook page, Lucario was first listed as originating from Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl on the GBA, while the games were released on the Nintendo DS. This was, however, fixed.[1]
- His actual first in-game appearance was as a statue in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, with Red Rescue Team being a GBA game.
