'''Lucas''' is the protagonist of the Japan-only game ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|Mother 3]]'' from the [[wikibound:Mother (series)|''Mother'' series]]. In this game, he lived with his twin brother Claus and his parents Hinawa and Flint, in Tazmily village located in the Nowhere Islands. Soon in the game, his mother is killed and his brother is lost, because of the Pig Mask Army, led by [[Porky]].


==History==
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
{{main|SmashWiki:Lucas (SSBB)}}
[[File:Lucas SSBB.png|frame|left]]
Lucas appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a playable character, one of the two representatives  from the ''EarthBound'' series. Lucas's special moveset is almost exactly like [[Ness]]'s from the previous games, but with a few minor tweaks. His neutral special is [[PK Freeze]], which sends up a snowflake that freezes opponents caught in its blast when Lucas sets it off. His side special is [[PK Fire]], which sends out a lightning bolt directly forward that explodes when it hits. His down special is [[PSI Magnet]], which sets up a barrier in front of himself that absorbs projectiles to restore damage and attack when the barrier is dropped. His up special is [[PK Thunder]], which sends out a ball of lightning that can attack opponents and propel Lucas forward. His [[Final Smash]], also shared with Ness, is [[PK Starstorm]], which sends groups of stars raining down on the stage in an inward direction. Lucas does not actually learn any of his special moves in ''Mother 3''; rather, they are all learned by [[wikibound:Kumatora|Kumatora]].
All his normal moves and [[Smash Attack|smash attack]]s are completely different, with the exception of his side smash attack which operates similarly to Ness's bat, though Lucas uses a stick instead. In addition, Lucas's grab is the [[wikibound:Rope Snake|Rope Snake]], a weapon used by [[wikibound:Duster|Duster]] which also acts as a [[Tether Recovery|tether recovery]]. His home stage is [[New Pork City]].
Lucas was originally meant to replace Ness in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. However, ''Mother 3'' for the [[Nintendo 64DD]], then unofficially known in America as ''EarthBound 64'', was cancelled, to be later revived for the [[Game Boy Advance]] in 2003 and released in 2006, only in Japan.

====Role in the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Story|Subspace Emissary]]====
[[File:SubspaceIntro-Lucas.png|200px|thumb|left|Lucas' snapshot in The Subspace Emissary.]]
In the Subspace Emissary, Lucas is shown as a weak, shy and timid figure, similarly to his appearance in the beginning of ''Mother 3''.
Lucas first appears alone in [[the Ruined Zoo]]. He is attacked by [[The Pig King Statue]], but [[Ness]] arrives to save him. They proceed to fight [[Porky]], but then [[Wario]] arrives with his [[Dark Cannon]] and attempts to hit Ness with it. Ness dodges his attacks, so Wario tries to attack Lucas instead. Lucas doesn't move out of the way, so Ness ends up taking the hit himself. Lucas, scared, runs away and meets the [[Pokémon Trainer]], and they join to fight the [[Subspace Army]], as Lucas cannot forget what Wario had done to Ness.
Outside [[the Ruins]], the Pokémon Trainer decides to capture a [[Charizard]] that flew by. Before entering them, however, they are ambushed by Wario. They defeat him, but Lucas becomes disappointed that Wario doesn't have Ness with him anymore. After capturing Charizard and an [[Ivysaur]] inside the Ruins, Lucas and the Pokémon Trainer reach the Ruined Hall, where they are attacked by [[Galleom]]. After defeating him, Galleom takes them and starts flying into the air, with a [[Subspace Bomb]] in his head about to go off. Lucas frees himself and the Pokémon Trainer, and they are then saved by [[Meta Knight]], whose team they then join.
At [[the Glacial Peak]], Meta Knight leaves them, but they are then joined by the [[Ice Climbers]] as the Subspace Army is sent out to attack them. [[Mario]], [[Link]], [[Yoshi]], [[Kirby]] and [[Pit]] then appear and defeated the enemies. Soon, the other remaining heroes show up and they enter [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]] together. Unfortunately, Lucas and the others were defeated by [[Tabuu]]. But then Lucas is saved by [[King Dedede]], who had revived Ness and [[Luigi]] with badges. All of the revived heroes then fight and defeat Tabuu.
===''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''===
{{upcoming|section=yes|downloadable character}}
Lucas has been announced to be the second downloadable playable character after [[Mewtwo]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'', planned for release on June 14, 2015<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/us/dlc/index.html Downloadable Content Info]. Official Site - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Retrieved June 5, 2015.</ref>. As seen in his trailer, his moveset appears relatively unchanged from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', and a new alternate color with the black hair and with a sprite of the Masked Man from ''Mother 3'' in his T-Shirt shown in the trailer. Nintendo has confirmed that Lucas will be receiving an [[amiibo]] as well.

He's a kind boy who can communicate with animals, but he's shy and never really got over the tragedy that struck his mother. He fights a warped dictatorship, hunts the Seven Needles, and crosses swords with his missing brother, Claus. In the end, the young boy with psychic PSI powers grows up.''

====Snake's codec====
*'''[[Radio conversation characters#Mei Ling|Mei Ling]]''': I see you're fighting Lucas, [[Solid Snake|Snake]].
*'''Snake''': Lucas?
*'''Mei Ling''': That boy has PSI powers, which he can use for different kinds of attacks. But the poor little guy's had such a hard life. His mother was killed when he was young, and he was separated from his brother. After that, he faced all kinds of senseless hardships, and he slowly grew stronger.
*'''Snake''': Senseless hardships--yeah, I had a lot of those, too. The question is how you translate those hardships into a better future.
*'''Mei Ling''': ...Mmm. Well, I hope things turn out OK for him.

==Trivia==
*One of Lucas's alternate skins makes him look like his twin brother, Claus.
*Lucas' and [[Ness]]' victory theme is a portion of the title theme for the first ''Mother'' game.
*Though Lucas's name was designed with the French pronunciation in mind (with the 's' at the end silent), the English dub of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' still pronounces it.
