Debut	Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl Versions

Lucian is the fourth and final member of Sinnoh's Elite Four appearing in Pokémon: Diamond, Pearl and Platinum Versions. He specializes in Psychic-type Pokémon.

Background

Lucian was the leader of the Elite Four. He was said to be the toughest of the four and fought well to live up to that reputation, although he was actually quite humble. He would read books while awaiting challengers in order to calm his nerves so that he could handle situations without panicking.

In Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, he is challenged by Lucas/Dawn just as he finished reading a book. He was defeated and congratulated Lucas/Dawn on defeating the Pokémon League, but also reminded them that there was still the current champion (Cynthia) to face in order to complete the Pokémon League challenge. He left Lucas/Dawn with the warning that the champion would be much tougher than the rest of the Elite Four.

Pokémon Roster

Lucian uses the following Pokémon for the Elite Four challenge in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum:

• Mr. Mime
• Girafarig (Diamond/Pearl only)/Espeon (Platinum only)
• Medicham (Diamond/Pearl only)/Gallade (Platinum only)
• Alakazam
• Bronzong

Other Appearances

• Lucian has appeared in several episodes of the Pokémon anime, being the first of Sinnoh's Elite Four to appear. He was first featured in one episode where he easily defeated Dawn's Buizel using only his Bronzong and told Ash Ketchum about the Elite Four challenge. He made a cameo appearance battling Cynthia on television later on.
