Luxray (Japanese: レントラー Rentorar) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It evolves from Luxio starting at level 30. It is the final form of Shinx.

Biology

 
Luxray's x-ray vision from its point of view

Luxray is a quadrupedal Pokémon resembling a fully-grown lion. While its face, hind legs, torso, and the back of its front legs are blue, much of its body is covered with shaggy, black fur. The fur is longer around the shoulders and the base of the tail, and forms a mane on its head. The mane is larger on the male than on the female. It has yellow eyes with red sclera, a blunt muzzle, and rounded ears with yellow insides. There are three yellow, half rings on the back of each foreleg. Its long, thin tail is tipped with a yellow four-pointed star. Luxray has powerful eyesight that is capable of seeing through most objects and walls, like x-ray vision. It uses this ability for hunting and keeping track of its offspring.

In Belligerent Bronzor, Mars used her Luxray to steal energy from Valley Windworks. In the graphic novel releases, however, Electivire assumes this role.

In Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone, when the trio is traveling through Mt. Coronet, a Luxray that evolved from a Luxio they had helped earlier in their journey saved Pearl and Platinum after they were trapped by a rock slide. This same Luxray later appeared to Pearl in Showdown with Houndoom as he was traveling to Lake Valor, and, after defeating the Houndoom that was trying to burn them alive, joined him as his third Pokémon, now named Rayler.

A Luxray appeared in a flashback as a Pokémon trained by the International Police in Innocent Scientist.

Trivia

  •  Luxray is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 523.

Origin

Luxray is based on an adult male lynx or lion, or possibly the constellation Lynx or Leo, due to the fact that it resembles the animals and bears a star shape on the end of its tail. Furthermore, in European mythology, the lynx was said to have the power to see through solid objects, exactly like Luxray.

Name origin

Luxray may be derived from lux (Latin for light) and x-ray (referring to its x-ray vision).

Rentorar may be a combination of レントゲン rentogen (x-ray) and 虎 tora (tiger).
