Luxray (Japanese: レントラー Rentorar) is an Template:Type2 Pokémon.
It evolves from Luxio starting at level 30. It is the final form of Shinx.
Biology
Physiology
Its appearance is based on that of a fully-grown lion. It has three rings on the backs of its legs, similar to Luxio (which has two) and Shinx (which has one) and has red eyes. Luxray has a spiky black mane that covers its head down to its legs. It's back legs are black and blue and it has a black tail with a star-like shape on the tip.
Gender differences
The female has a shorter mane than the male.
Special abilities
Luxray have extraordinary eyesight. It is so powerful that they can see through most objects, like x-ray vision.
Behavior
Luxray are extremely vicious and predatorial, although when tamed and trained correctly they can become very loyal and faithful, protecting their trainer from danger. Abusing a Luxray can cause it to become antagonistic and vengeful towards their trainer. Luxray need a lot of compassion and praise to maintain their satisfaction, as they are proud creatures.

However, Alice played Oración, allowing it and the other effected Pokémon sleep peacefully.

In the mangaIn the TCGGame dataTrivia
- Luxray is one of only two second stage Template:Type2 Pokémon that was released in the same generation as its evolutionary relatives, the other being Ampharos.
- Interstingly enough, both Luxray and Ampharos evolve from their previous forms at level 15 and 30.
- Unlike most Electric-types, Luxray has Speed as its lowest stat. It shares this trait with Ampharos and Magnezone.
- Luxray has the second highest Attack stat out of all the Template:Type2 Pokémon, second only to Electivire.
- Even though it is shown attacking with its claws in the anime, it couldn't learn Scratch or any other claw-based moves until Pokémon Platinum, where a move tutor can teach it Fury Cutter.
- Luxray is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 523.
- Even though Luxray is renowned for its x-ray like vision, there is no attack or ability associated with it. It cannot even learn Foresight.
Origin
Luxray is based on an adult male lion, or possibly the constellation Leo, due to the fact that it resembles a lion and bears a star shape on the end of its tail.
Name origin
Luxray is derived from lux, a measure of brightness, and x-ray, referring to its x-ray eyes.
Its Japanese name is a combination of Roentgen, the physicist who discovered X-rays, and 虎 tora, tiger.
