Okay, so I’ve been trying to snag a Lucario in Pokemon Go for a while now, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey. I did some research, and there are a couple of ways to catch one.
Trying My Luck with Raids
First, I heard that Lucario sometimes pops up in Raid Battles, like a Tier 3 Raid Boss. I thought, “Sweet, I’ll just team up with some other trainers and take it down.” Easier said than done, my friends. I spent days scanning for raids, finally found a Lucario raid!
I gathered a few other trainers, and we jumped in. It was a tough battle, but we managed to defeat the Lucario! But here’s the kicker – defeating it in a raid doesn’t mean I could catch it. I got my Premier Balls, started throwing, and… nothing. It broke free every single time. I used up all my Razz Berries, but nope, that Lucario just wouldn’t stay in the ball. Eventually, it ran away. Talk about frustrating!
Hatching Eggs and Hoping for the Best
After the raid disappointment, I turned to the other method: hatching Riolu from eggs and evolving it. I started walking like crazy, hatching every 10km egg I could get my hands on. Days turned into weeks, and still no Riolu. I hatched a bunch of other Pokemon, some cool ones, but no Riolu. It felt like the game was just teasing me.
The Rare Encounter Struggle
Then someone told me about these “Rare” encounters in the Grand Underground. Apparently, there’s a tiny chance, like 0.7%, to encounter a Lucario there. I spent hours down in the underground, running into the same old Pokemon over and over. I started to lose hope, thinking maybe this whole Lucario thing just wasn’t meant to be.
Persistence Pays Off
But I’m not one to give up easily. I kept at it, hatching eggs, checking for raids, and exploring the underground. I do not find any Lucario raids again and encounter it in underground. Then, finally, after weeks of trying, I got a Riolu! I was so stoked, I immediately started feeding it Rare Candies to get it to evolve. And then, there it was – my very own Lucario. It was such a relief, and honestly, it felt amazing to finally achieve this goal.
Conclusion
- Keep an eye out for raids: It’s a long shot, but you might get lucky.
- Hatch those eggs: Focus on 10km eggs for the best chance at Riolu.
- Don’t give up on Rare encounters: They’re rare for a reason, but it’s possible.
- Be patient: It might take a while, but the feeling of finally getting a Lucario is worth it.
So yeah, that’s my story of how I finally caught a Lucario in Pokemon Go. It was a grind, but totally worth it in the end. If you’re also trying to get one, don’t give up! Keep at it, and you’ll eventually get there.
