Pokemon’s Lucario Returns to Super Smash Bros.

Nintendo has recently released a new batch of images for the next installment of Super Smash Bros., which is going to come out for both the Wii U and 3DS. Anybody who’s followed the developments on this game will know that they use preview images as a way of announcing new characters. This time around, it’s a returning character and one that came from the ever-popular Pokemon franchise: Lucario.

Director Masahiro Sakurai had the following to say about the Pokémon challenger on Miiverse:

“The heroic Aura Pokémon, Lucario, joins the battle!! We’ve increased the influence of his Aura this time, so a damaged Lucario is truly a force to be reckoned with.”
