Flavor Text |
 | Sun | Not only does it perceive auras, but it has also gained the power to control them. It employs them in battle. |
Moon | They can detect the species of a living being— and its emotions—from over half a mile away. They control auras and hunt their prey in packs. | Ultra Sun | It concentrates its mental energy and fires off mysterious waves called auras, which can crush boulders of large size to dust. | Ultra Moon | Lucario reads its opponent’s feelings with its aura waves. It finds out things it would rather not know, so it gets stressed out easily. |  | Sun | Black streaks all over its body show where its auras and the energy of Mega Evolution intermingled and raced through it. |
Moon | It readies itself to face its enemies by focusing its mental energies. Its fighting style can be summed up in a single word: heartless. | Ultra Sun | Its aura has expanded due to Mega Evolution. Governed only by its combative instincts, it strikes enemies without mercy. | Ultra Moon | Bathed in explosive energy, its combative instincts have awakened. For its enemies, it has no mercy whatsoever. |
