Trivia

• Lucas is based on the NPC character from the Sinnoh-based games, as his character description mentions how he is Professor Rowan's assistant from Sandgem Town.
• Lucas's Pokémon Evolutions counterpart is depicted with an Infernape. Infernape is also Lucas's signature Pokémon if the player chooses Piplup as their first partner Pokémon in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

Origin

Lucas's design is based on his appearance in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Dialga is a Legendary Pokémon that can be caught during the climax of Pokémon Diamond at Spear Pillar. In addition, Lucas's Pokémon Adventures counterpart teamed up with Dialga in the manga. Dialga's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Pearl.

Lucas's Flareon may be based on the Eevee that can be obtained from Bebe at Hearthome City. As Professor Rowan's assistant, Lucas uses a Flareon on his team when battling him in Sandgem Town after entering the Hall of Fame 10 times if the player chooses Chimchar as their first partner Pokémon in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Flareon's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.
