Aura in the Pokémon Adventures manga is explained as a wave that can be picked up by people just like sound. Certain Pokémon and humans can pick up this sound, allowing them to see and sense the Auras of others. However, due to the fact that Aura is the same as sound, it can be interrupted by anything that cuts the airspace.

Aura is first revealed in [[P7-05|Escape From Team Galactic]] as a form of energy that all humans and Pokémon emit. While Pokémon like [[Hiori's Lucario]] can naturally sense Aura, there are certain cases when a human can sense it. One known human who can sense Aura is Hiori's sister, [[Lily (Pokémon 7)|Lily]], and it was this ability that [[Team Galactic]] kidnapped her at a young age for their own selfish, evil goals.

Various moves whose Japanese names contain はどう ''wave/pulse'' seem to use Aura. {{m|Aura Sphere}} is a move that explicitly uses Aura, and Aura may also be involved in the moves {{m|Dragon Pulse}}, {{m|Dark Pulse}}, {{m|Heal Pulse}}, and {{m|Water Pulse}}. These moves are capable of hitting a non-adjacent Pokémon in a [[Triple Battle]], despite not being {{type|Flying}}. The Ability {{a|Mega Launcher}} boosts these moves by 50%.

In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] and [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]], almost all of {{SSB|Lucario}}'s moves use Aura. In these games, thanks to Aura, the more damage Lucario has, the more powerful its attacks are. In Brawl, when Lucario gets a Smash Ball, it can execute its [[Final Smash]], {{DL|Final Smash|Aura Storm}}. During the attack, Lucario focuses its Aura into a powerful beam that the player controls.

In paranormal theory, an {{wp|Aura (paranormal)|aura}} is a field of light said to surround living beings, the color of which is determined by the particular person's disposition. It is often used in artwork to cause objects or people of high importance to stand out. Aura could also be based on the Chinese concept of ''{{wp|qi}}'', which often refers to the life-force existing in all living things.
