{{main-external|SmashWiki|Lucario (SSBB)}}
[[File:Lucario SSBB.png|frame|left]]
[[File:BrawlLucario.jpg|thumb|right|Lucario's artwork in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]
Lucario appears as an unlockable playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He can be unlocked by playing 100 Brawl matches, completing every level of Target Smash with one character, or by having him join the party in The Subspace Emissary by clearing [[The Glacial Peak]]. His voice clips in this game are provided by Bill Rogers in the English release, who voices Lucario for the television series, and Daisuke Namikawa in Japanese, who provided the voice of the Lucario in the movie ''[[bulbapedia:M08|Pokémon: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' and the ''Pokémon Diamond and Pearl'' seasons of the animated series.
 
Lucario's attacks and abilities mostly revolve around aura, which increases in power the more damage Lucario takes (though this only applies to attacks that use its aura). His neutral special move is [[Aura Sphere]], in which Lucario charges and throws a ball of aura energy. His side special move is [[Force Palm]], in which Lucario thrusts its hand forward to attack with a burst of energy. His down special move is [[Double Team]], in which Lucario counterattacks an opponent that attacks it. His up special move is [[Extreme Speed|ExtremeSpeed]], in which Lucario flies in the direction the player inputs. His [[Final Smash]] is [[Aura Storm]], in which Lucario leaps into the air and fires a beam down onto the stage.

=====The [[Subspace Emissary]]=====
[[File:SubspaceIntro-Lucario.png|thumb|200px|left|Lucario's introduction in The Subspace Emissary.]]
Lucario is first encountered at the top of [[The Glacial Peak]], where it is balanced on the peak when [[Meta Knight]] and the [[Ice Climbers]] arrive. Lucario and Meta Knight battle (the player able to control either character), and the loser is turned into a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]]. The winner revives the loser, and the two shake hands, now allies. However, in its battle with the [[Great Fox]], the [[Halberd]] smashes the Great Fox into the mountain, allowing Lucario and Meta Knight to climb aboard the Halberd.
 
[[File:LucarioSnake.png|thumb|200px|right|Lucario finds [[Solid Snake]] in his Cardboard Box.]]
As the two are traveling through the Halberd, Lucario senses [[Solid Snake]]'s aura from inside his [[Cardboard Box]] and exposes him. His cover blown, Snake and Meta Knight are about to fight, but Lucario stops them, sensing the aura of some nearby [[Primid]]s which they fight instead. As the three travel on they find a room where the Trohpies of [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] are being held in cages. [[Shadow Bug]]s then appear and take the form of the princesses, which Lucario, Meta Knight and Snake battle. After the clones are defeated the actual Peach and Zelda are freed and left in the room while the group travels on. They arrive at the bridge, where they find multiple [[Mr. Game & Watch]]es controlling the ship. Snake knocks them all onto the main deck, where they dissolve into Shadow Bugs and reform into [[Duon]]. Snake and Lucario leap down onto the deck, teaming up with [[Sheik]], Peach, [[Fox McCloud|Fox]], and [[Falco Lombardi|Falco]] to fight. After it is defeated, Duon dissolves to reveal the actual Mr. Game & Watch's trophy, which Peach restores.
 
The Halberd lands in the desert, where most of the cast units. They all then fight against the [[Subspace Gunship]] and make it to [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]]. Inside, the team stand against [[Tabuu]], but are all instantly turned into Trophies. However, they are all eventually restored and head to face Tabuu. After he is defeated, everyone returns to the real world, the Subspace portals all closed.
 
====''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''====
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Lucario (SSB4)}}
Lucario returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. In English, he is now voiced by Sean Schemmel, who voiced the Lucario in the English version of ''Lucario and the Mystery of Mew''. He retains all of his special moves, as well as the aura mechanic, which has been made more powerful and now affects all of its attacks. His Final Smash is now [[Mega Evolution (Lucario)|Mega Evolution]], in which Lucario temporarily Mega Evolves, increasing the power of his aura to maximum.

|''An Aura Pokémon. It can track energy called Aura, which is given off by all living creatures. It's a unique combination of both Fighting- and Steel-type Pokémon. Lucario evolves from Riolu during the day if its happiness has reached a certain point. It specializes in attacks that use Aura energy, like Dark Pulse and a can't-miss technique, Aura Sphere.''

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.

====Snake's codec====
*'''[[Radio conversation characters#Mei Ling|Mei Ling]]''': You're fighting Lucario, aren't you, Snake?
*'''[[Solid Snake|Snake]]''': Mei Ling, what's that purple fire coming out of his hands?
*'''Mei Ling''': That's his "Aura."
*'''Snake''': Aura?
*'''Mei Ling''': I guess you could call it his life force. Lucario can use his own Aura and turn it into power. Every time Lucario's damage increases, his Aura gains strength, making his attacks more powerful. So don't think you've got him beat just because his health is down.
*'''Snake''': The cornered rat will bite the cat... Sounds like trouble.
*'''Mei Ling''': Hey! When did you become so good with proverbs?!
*'''Snake''': You must have rubbed off on me.
*'''Mei Ling''': Well, come back in one piece, and I'll teach you all the Chinese proverbs you can handle.

|''The Extreme Speed up special sends Lucario rushing in your chosen direction, and you can adjust the flight path mid-air. Also, the more damage Lucario takes, the further it will go. For the Force Palm side special, Lucario attacks with its Aura. Using it while close to an enemy adds a grab to the move and deals extra damage.''

====Palutena's Guidance====
*'''Viridi''': What the heck is that?!
*'''[[Pit]]''': Oh, that's Lucario. What about it?
*'''Viridi''': I've never seen a creature with a life force like that! It's like a current of water. Or a whirlpool!
*'''[[Palutena]]''': Oh, you mean Lucario's Aura.
*'''Viridi''': Aura?
*'''Palutena''': Lucario can sense the life force—or Aura—emanating from all living things. As Lucario takes more damage, its own Aura grows stronger.
*'''Viridi''': Ingenious! Lucario sounds like a perfect fit for the Forces of Nature.
*'''Pit''': We need to focus on the fight at hand.
*'''Viridi''': You focus on the fight at hand. I gotta catch my new recruit.
*'''Pit''': No! Stop!
*'''Palutena''': Pit, a wounded Lucario is stronger than it looks. Be extra careful when it's taken lots of damage.
