Lucario was announced today as a returning character in Super Smash Bros: Wii U / 3DS. This is a great surprise with the recent release of Pokémon X and Y. I personally thought Lucario would have been up for removal for a generation six Pokemon (not to say that they won’t add another one, though), but its great to see it return to the series!
In the previous installment, Lucario’s “aura” grew stronger as his damage meter grew higher. Sakurai explains that this feature will be enhanced in the next installment of Smash Bros, which makes Lucario’s strength “a force to be reckoned with”. It will be interesting to learn how his aura effects the battle field and, as a Lucario user, how his play style will change.
Earlier today I had the pleasure to have an in-person discussion regarding this announcement with some of the Pokéjungle staff today and we were throwing some ideas around about Lucario’s addition to the Smash roster. Our speculation is that his final smash this time around will be his mega evolution instead of “Aura Blast”. He could be faster, stronger, and much more difficult to K.O which in his Mega Lucario state. I think they should even give it an expanded move-set in addition to a strength buff. Perhaps a longer range aura or added bounce effect to his moves. Also this will no doubt bring up speculation about Mewtwo and whether or not this news means he will not return as Lucario replaced him in the previous game and may do so for this one.
We’ll have to see what Sakurai has in store for us next with his rather elusive updates to Smash! I’m hoping for the return of another new Pokémon character (Pokemon Trainer with three new starters. . .?! A guy can dream, right?).
What do you hope for in the next Smash update? A new Pokémon Character? Some Metroid or Starfox love, perhaps? We’d love to here what you think!

Nope, that’s Fabian’s niece.
xD “hotghettomess”
I CAN’T LOLOLOLOL LMAO XDD
Is jolly a good mawile nature?
Not at all, Adamant 🙂
ok thanks tc 🙂
Timid is the way to go!
Definitely
I know huhhh
I KNOW HUUUUUHH
Or Modest
Timid, with Solarbeam, flamethrower, shadow ball and focus blast…..best Mawile set ever
Completely disregard its awesome ability! Best. Strategy. Ever!
Anyone want a battle?
I do!
Ok! let me know when you’re ready…
Ready
The Choiced Curse strikes again!
Ooooh
I thought you were throwing the match
Nope xDDD
Good game, definitely a good one! 😀
Yeah
Feels so nice not to deal with OU Pokemon (And to win for once)
GG
Earthen!!! I have some great pokemon being ev trained I hope to battle you!!!
Are they my favorites?
No but they will destroy you lol but you would like two of them
Alrighty I await the battle
Me too!!!
Maybe tomorrow since my Family’s going out
TO BOBBY’S BURGER PALACE!
Anyone seen the new Steven Universe yet?
I just realized that I’m missing a shiny Crustle… Did I ever trade with any of you a shiny Crustle? I don’t remember what happened to it. I know I caught 2 shiny Dwebble, traded one for a shiny Granbull, and keep the other….
In black I have a level 100 Shiny Dwebble
I wonder if anyone uses a special attacking Mawile LMAO xD
….
jk XD
It’s not unheard of. Some people use it for the “surprise factor” XD
Not as powerful though XD
No where near. “Oh it has over 100 base attack with huge power? Let’s use its 55 special attack instead”.
But Timid Mawile is too OP!
Just like Physical Alakazam?
mega gardevoir with hyper beam recks!! why dont people use mega gardevoir ever??? D:
I do..
I used one…
I never traded with Diantha….
You can trade her anything
Can’t I just chuck a brick at her and take the Ralts while she’s unconscious?
Nahh. She wants something in return. Of course you can give her one of the abandoned skiddo
I did kinda leave a bunch of Skiddo on the road from the ranch and just left them there
Don’t tell me you left @GovnahSkiddo:disqus
Uhhhhhh
*Sends out Golurk & Hops on It’s Back*
LETS BOOK IT!!!!
have you seen its defense? its pathetic
*Cough* Mega Alakazam *cough*
Have you seen it’s spped and sp atk? destruction.
priority moves though
Because Bullet Punch exists….as do both Scizor and Lucario. Its unfortunate because I love Gardevoir
every pokemon has its counters! Gardevoir can be good i f you use it right.
That’s very true. I’ve seen teams swept by Gardevoir. I’ve just not had any luck with it myself so far. Maybe I should try again…
If there are hurrn remakes, ill use a mega gardevoir! 😀
Hyper Voice is better 🙂
Good game Chaos!
You too…
Mega Charizard Y?
lol yeah, but it got destroyed by infernape’s thunder punch
I want to experiment with a Infernape’s Iron Fist
Mach Punch + STAB + Iron Fist + Metronome
It could work. I’ve never used metronome myself, but it should be good with infernape’s good speed
I’m just Afraid that Infernape is too fragile
Some light screen and reflect support should help.
Mine has Thunder Punch, Fire Punch (needs to be replaced with Flare Blitz), CC and Taunt at the moment, might change taunt out for UTurn
Or shadow Claw
Didn’t have too much trouble with it. Iron Fist Thunder Punch to the face….but I did have to sacrifice a Pokemon to it
