This week's star is Lucario, the star of the most recent Pokemon movie and all-around bad-ass. When the wee Rioru's respect for its master overflows and the warm light of the sun shines on its fur, it evolves into this regal Pokemon. While he may be styled after Anubis, the Jackal-like Egyptian god of death, Lucario is a noble and honorable warrior. Its signature move, Pulse Bomb, allows Lucario to channel his indomitable fighting spirit into his hands to release a ball of energy, Street Fighter-style.
