Title: What is Lucario best in?
Post by: ThePowerOfOne on March 31, 2008, 06:11:42 PM
I just had him EV trained in Sp. Atk and Speed. Should I have also done Attack?

Depends on what? Its Docile if that helps (Yeah, I know. Not a very good nature >_>)

I haven't decided on a moveset yet.

it really depends on its moves.
   I have a lv78 Lucario with moves like Aura Sphere and Psychic,
so I raise Sp. Atk.

I'm just going to go with Sp. Atk. How is Aura Sphere, Psychic, Dark Pulse, and Dragon Pulse?

I think that's all Sp. Atk so that's all you need.

Well, lets see: all of those are Special, which is a great stat for Lucario, all of those have good accuracy, pp, and power, and as for typing...

Aura Sphere>Steel, Ice, Normal, Rock, Dark
Psychic>Poison, Fighting
Dark Pulse> Psychic, Ghost
Dragon Pulse> Dragon (plus it does normal against all types except steel)
Total= Super against 10 types, normal against the other 7

Yep, I'd say this is a pretty sweet moveset!

However, I personally am using an Aura Pulser, as in Aura Sphere, Water Pulse, Dragon Pulse, and Dark Pulse.  It's like yours, but Water Pulse is more useful (though not as powerful) than Psychic since it beats two of Lucario's weaknesses (Ground and Fire) while Psychic just beats one (Fighting).  Psychic can help against Poison types, but since Poison can't touch Steel (which Lucario is), Water Pulse ends up the better type-trumper.  Plus, Water Pulse can cause confusion, which is always nice.

I was considering Water Pulse instead, but I decided to go with Psychic becuase... Well I don't know why, I guess I like Psychic moves :P

Lucario is equal in SP. ATK and normal ATK, so its a matter of physical or non-physical attacks...
