General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The hook is verified by the English-language source. I am not literate in Japanese so I used a machine translator; the machine translations of the two Japanese-language sources also verified the hook. I spot checked the English-language sources for close paraphrasing and found no issues. Keeping this in mind and the fact that this article was promoted to GA status before the nomination, I am assuming in good faith that the English translations of the Japanese-language sources would not turn up close paraphrasing issues either.

It is possible that readers may be unfamiliar with Pokemon, and thus the hook may be modified from "the Pokemon Lucario" to "the fictional Pokemon species Lucario". However, I find that wordy and unnecessary, as the Pokemon franchise is well-known globally. I encourage the promoter not to modify the original hook, but I am aware that this may be a possible concern. Yue🌙 23:44, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
