I feel like mega Lucario is the super powered evil side. The red evokes blood, getting its hands dirty, and the black tendrils and spikes being the instability, the limbo between heroism and cruel villainy.
But Lucario’s animal origins *do* have a purpose. It’s a jackal to link back to its main inspirations in Egyptian Boxing
I don’t like your assessment of SSJ4 being “too much and losing the grace of the original idea,” because there’s no grace to that transformation. Super Saiyan has always been a form of unleashed rage, and 4 is that on top of werewolf monkey Kaiju. SsJ4 is a form of barely restrained animalistic fury, and I do believe the context should be considered when analyzing design.
Lucario is giving training time skip after the first mentor’s death
Lucario always looked more like a Digimon than a Pokemon to me
You take that back about super saiyan 4
Au contraire. Mega Lucario IS the Super Saiyan 4 to Lucario’’s Super Saiyan 2
Lucario is based on Anubis, which is why it’s a bipedal jackal pokemon. Saying it was designed to be a furry when there are so many with less specific design inspiration (looking at you, inceneroar) is kinda an odd take
I legit thought Lucario was a legendary as a kid since it had its own movie (where it’s telepathic and very important). I also thought it was a Psychic type because of its Aura powers
I used to think it was supposed to look like anubis for some reason
probably the head shape
