Lucas

Lucas is a character from the EarthBound/Mother series, who debuted in the Japan-Only game, Mother 3. He will be appearing in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as a playable character, representing the Earthbound series. Although, none of his moves have been confirmed yet, he appears to have many A moves that are similar to Ness's attacks. Although, as to whether he will be a clone of Ness or not, is unconfirmed. There is not much information on Lucas, at this point. Also, as to wether Ness will be appearing alongside Lucas in this game, is unknown.

Trivia

 * Lucas was originally meant to replace Ness in Super Smash Bros. Melee. However, Mother 3 (at that time, known as EarthBound 64), was delayed for 2006 for release on the GameBoy Advance. As such, Ness was kept in Super Smash Bros. Melee to avoid confusion.
