Not looking for a competitive moveset. I'm looking for a moveset that's really dominating in the game.
Well I'm looking for a Lucario Moveset that is mixed with physical and special attk since it's well based around it's attacks.
So far, I've got;
Extreme Speed -Physical
Aura Sphere [STAB] - Special
Earthquake - Physical
Psychic/Dark pulse/Shadow Ball - Special

I need someone's opinion on this moveset. I think i'm just contemplating too much. :\
 
RE: Lucario Moveset

Unless your dead set on having a priority move (Extremespeed) I would suggest replacing that move with Ice Punch, that way the Weakness to Ground Types will be countered and it has freeze potential. You would also lose a little bit of power but not really that much. Both moves are physical.

Aura Sphere is a good solid one, as not only does it give STAB boost but it will always hit the opponent, which is a good benefit.

Earthquake, aside from being one of the most powerful moves in the game is a great type counter against his other Weakness Fire.

The last move may be more dependant on what the rest of your team needs or what you more frequently encounter. Psychic is a little stronger than the other two, though Dark Pulse has flinch potential. Unless you really need a Ghost type move around I wouldn't bother with Shadow Ball as it's just like Psychic but with less power.

Thtat's my two cents
 
RE: Lucario Moveset

Hmm... This set is not very good competitively. If you want a very deadly set for the opponent, go for this:
Swords Dance
ExtremeSpeed
Bullet Punch
Close Combat
Also, what's your EVs, IVs, and nature?
 
RE: Lucario Moveset

He is talking about an ingame set, not competitive. I would suggest Psychic for your second special. It counters fighting types, who are super effective to Lucario and often have low special defense.
 
RE: Lucario Moveset

Well we have one problem here..
I don't really care for competitive battling, but mann..
You need to school me in EV, IV's, and why the Nature is so important.
For EV, correct me if I'm wrong, but Effort Value = +1 more so they would gain 4.
In addition, Nature, all I know is that the nature boosts up a certain area of their strength.
IVs, Never heard it in my whole life.
Notify yourself that I'm new to EV's and IV's, so you should talk to me like I'm in kindergarten.
