Lucario is confirmed as a secret character. He was actually leaked before the game was released.
On January 21 2007, a promotional video for Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the official Wii website was posted that showed a Groudon sticker being highlighted and the faces of Pikachu, Pokémon Trainer, Lucario, and Jigglypuff to show that the sticker can be used to power-up these four characters in the Subspace Emissary. This is essentially confirmation that Lucario will be a playable character in the game. This video can be viewed here.

Lucario is unique in that the more damage he takes, the more damage, range, and knockback his own attacks have. This trait makes him not particularly useful at the beginning of a life, but if he survives at a high damage level, he becomes ridiculously deadly.
his neutral B attack is a charagble ranged blast comparable to samus's charged blast. his side B is a short range blast, or at point blank, a throw. his up B is a non-damaging recovery move, he will move in any direction pressed. his down B is a counter attack, that is, it will harm a character who tries to attack him within a brief time period. This is one of his only attacks that is not affected by the amount of damage he has taken, it always does 15%
He is not particularly fast moving. But he can escape many tight situations. He is slightly faster than average.
