Riolu is a black and blue, dog-like Pokémon nearing two and a half feet. Its appearance is similar to its evolved form Lucario, though there are some differences. Its legs and torso are colored black while its head, lower body, and tail are blue. Riolu has large, rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws, placed in a similar fashion to Lucario’s spikes. Riolu also has a black “mask” with two black appendages on either side and red eyes. Riolu is sensitive to a special type of energy called Aura as Lucario is. Riolu’s evolved form, Lucario, can use these waves for attacks, tracking, or predicting future moves. However, Riolu does not have the full potential of these powers, using them as described in ripples rather than waves. Moves such as Aura Sphere can not be learned by Riolu due to its inability to fully use the power of Aura. There is at least one exception to this rule, however.

Riolu has a max Combat Power (CP) of 1123 and evolves into Lucario which costs 50 candy.  The best moves of Riolu are Quick Attack and Cross Chop.
