===Quotes===

====Battle Quotes====

:''"Ah, you timed your arrival well. I've just finished reading a book, you see. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Lucian. I am a user of the Psychic type. I must say, you've already proven yourself to be outstanding by coming this far. They say I am the toughest of the Elite Four. I'm afraid I will have to go all out against you to live up to that reputation."''

:''"Hmm... Now what should I do..."''

:''"Congratulations. You have beaten the Elite Four. However, that doesn't mean you're done with the Pokémon league. There remains the Champion. I should warn you-the Champion is far stronger than the Elite Four. Now, go on. Step through the doorway to your final battle."''

:''"I'll be reading books until the next challenger arrives. That will calm my nerves, so that I may deal with all situations without panicking."''

| Lucian's VS sprite<br>from {{color2|000000|Pokémon Platinum Version|Platinum}}

|}

[[Image:DP035.png|thumb|left|240px|Lucian in the anime]]

Lucian made his debut in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]''. His Japanese voice actor is 浪川大輔 ''[[Daisuke Namikawa]]'' and his English voice actor is [[David Lapkin]].

He was first seen battling using his {{p|Girafarig}} on television, but then met {{Ash}} and his friends in a Pokémon Center and had a battle against {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Ash|Buizel}}. Lucian sent out his {{p|Bronzong}}. Buizel's attacks didn't have much of an effect, if any, on Bronzong. Following the attack {{m|Gyro Ball}}, Bronzong used {{m|Flash Cannon}} to defeat its opponent.  

===Pokémon===

====On hand====

|vaen=Jimmy Zoppi{{!}}Billy Beach

|desc={{p|Bronzong}} is Lucian's main Pokémon. The first time he used it was in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', where it battled against {{an|Dawn}}'s newly captured {{AP|Buizel}}. Because Buizel didn't listen to Dawn, it quickly lost. Later in the same episode they had a rematch, and because Buizel was now listening to Dawn, the battle went better. However, Lucian eventually recalled Bronzong, saying that he had just wanted to prove Buizel's potentiality for becoming strong.

Later in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' Lucian used his Bronzong in his battle against [[Cynthia]]'s {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}}, but the Bronze Bell Pokémon was soon [[fainting|knocked out]] by the Mach Pokémon's powerful {{m|Giga Impact}}.

Bronzong's known moves are {{m|Iron Defense}}, {{m|Gyro Ball}} and {{m|Flash Cannon}}.}}

|img=LucianGirafarig.png

|desc=Lucian was seen using his {{p|Girafarig}} on television in a battle against an unnamed {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s {{p|Scizor}}. It was easily able to dodge all of Scizor's {{m|Slash}} attacks and finally knock it out with a {{m|Psybeam}}.}}

{{-}}

====Temporary====

|img=Ash Buizel DP034.png

|desc={{main|Ash's Buizel}}

 

When {{an|Dawn}}'s newly caught {{p|Buizel}} was being stolen away [[Team Rocket]], Lucian used it to battle against the thieves, showing Dawn that she could also be able to command the Sea Weasel Pokémon which had been disobeying her during her battle with Lucian. Under Lucian's command, Buizel quickly defeated [[Jessie's Dustox]] and [[James's Carnivine]].}}

* In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, Lucian is the only member of the Sinnoh Elite Four whose Pokémon are all of his specialty type.

* One of the old men on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}}, who is only found in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, may be Lucian's grandfather as he has a grandson who enjoys reading and who has a library of books on {{wp|Extrasensory perception|ESP}}.

* Lucian is one of the characters of the day who do not share an English voice actor with any other character.

* While Lucian's clothes are colored maroon in his official Sugimori artwork and the anime, they are colored magenta in his gamesprites.

* For reasons unknown, his Diamond and Pearl sprite showed him with shorter hair than what his Sugimori artwork depicts. This was corrected in Platinum.

* Two members of the Sinnoh Elite Four, {{EF|Aaron}} and Lucian, share their names with the main characters of Konami's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Knights Lunar Knights] for the DS.

*Lucian is the only male member of the Sinnoh Elite Four not voiced by [[Tom Wayland]] in the English dub of the [[Pokémon anime]].
