Rawr! It's a Lucario/Riolu Club!

[Ayano Katagiri]

Honestly, Lucario seems to stand alone, have no Gen 4 opposite (or any Gen opposite, at that). The only thing I can think of is Lucario being on the Diamond box and Drapion being on the Pearl box.

Lucario is Fight/Steel and Drapion is Poison/Dark, two types introduced in the second gen. They were (at one point) considered opposites. Both their second (and as of now, final) forms were revealed before DP release, and their preevos weren't mentioned at all, they were left for DP.

No other Pokemon is nearly as comparable to Lucario in those categories.

It could very well be possible that we will see a new opposite for Lucario in the next generation (which most likely will be released). Currently, the most likely candidate would probably be Drapion like you've said. I can't really think that Lucario has anything that yet matches it.

...i know this seems stupid, but could you repeat that???

._. I thought Psychic was the opposite of Dark.. Also I'm back, and I just hatched a female Modest Riolu. Trainin' time. ;)

 

[Karsen]

Lucario is my favourite pokemon so put me down on the list.

 

[Rivvon]

._. I thought Psychic was the opposite of Dark..

They are. But like I said, at one point they were opposites, as they are the two types introduced in the Metalgen. Starting in Advancedgen, they weren't really opposites anymore.

Welcome to the club, Karsen! Good to have another LuRi fan with us! Actually, welcome back, lots of people! I'm glad we're getting a bit more active again.

 

[Crimson Arcanine]

Its more like a triangle now with Dark --> Psychic ---> Fighting etc.

Lucario is a odd one because its moveset and Steel type addition allows it to strike Dark AND Psychic pokemon quite hard...no other Fighting pokemon can really do that as effectivily. Theres Medichem and Gallade as well which could...but i'm not sure of thier combat capablitlities (Never used either)

Altogether on my Pearl and my new Diamond version, i've trained 3 Lucario. On both versions its a main for the team I been going tthrough the game with. And I used another in a tournament as well, all male. My favourite is still the first one I trained but on my Diamond version, I have a Modest natured male Lucario which I'm growing very fond of.

Aura Sphere 4tw!

 

[Avolition]

Aura Sphere is awesome, yeah. Gallade is awesome with attack and special attack, I have an EV trained one, but it dies quickly to physical attacks. It survives Shadow Balls well, though, that helps. Also, I forgot that Riolu only evolves at daytime, so I wasted a rare candy last night. >_<
