Lucario (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Lucario appears to be based on the Egyptian god {{wp|Anubis}}, who has the head of a {{wp|jackal}}. It also seems to be based on an Egyptian boxer. {{wp|Boxing}} is a sport that is believed to have origins in Egypt. The black appendages on the back of its head are used to detect the Auras of creatures and objects around it. While Lucario reads Aura, it closes its eyes, and thus the appendages and the way they look "tied" around its face appear to be based on someone being blindfolded. The appearance of Lucario's {{metal claw}} attack and it's typing are reminiscent of Wolverine from {{wp|The X-men}}, but this may only be a coincidence.
