Lucas is a timid and shy boy from [[Tazmily Village]], living there for his entire life. He is close with his family, primarily, although he does know the other villagers fairly well. He also loves his dog, [[Boney]], and goes out playing and taking walks with him often.

Near the end of [[Chapter 3]], Lucas comes in at a critical moment with [[Kumatora]], [[Salsa]] and [[Wess]] surrounded by [[Pigmask]] tanks, calling upon a Drago to smash the tanks and save them from being captured or even killed. He then learns of the current situation, with the Pigmasks slowly taking over Tazmily Village and was urged by Wess to stay in Tazmily to protect the village with his father. He followed his advice to stay in the village, however, it was too late to prevent damage being done to the town. Tazmily Village then started urbanizing, townspeople became greedy and [[Chimera]]s were released out in the wild, radically changing the once simple and trusting town.

In [[Chapter 4]], Lucas sets out with his dog to investigate the mysterious bassist, who is apparently an amnesic [[Duster]], at [[Club Titiboo]]. On the way there, he met a [[Magypsy]] named [[Ionia]], who taught him [[PSI|psychic powers]]. He then encounters [[Kumatora]] at the club, seeing her for the first time in three years. She discusses the various things that have happened over the past three years, and they both come to the conclusion that they need to become stronger and try to stop the [[Pig Army]]. They both also get Duster to come along with them on their journey, and also search for the lost [[Egg of Light]].

Later, in [[Chapter 5]], Lucas is repeatedly mistaken for the Pig Army's commander, the [[Masked Man]]. This gave him the advantage of being able to invade [[Thunder Tower]] to take down the generator causing the lightning strikes to the village. However, destroying the generator also resulted in the destruction of the tower, and while him and his friends clung to a nearby aircraft that was originally brought there for [[Fassad]]'s safety, they couldn't hold on well enough and all fell in different locations on the island, being separated once again.

Lucas and Boney found themselves on a large plateau of [[sunflower]]s, reminding Lucas of his mother. After walking around the field, he then saw what appeared to be the ghost of Hinawa, and followed her off of the cliff, landing conveniently in a haystack. While walking around the town, he runs into [[Ionia]] once again, who is stuck and tied up. Lucas leads Ionia back to [[Aeolia]]'s house, and learns of the [[Seven Needles]] and his [[PK Love|special ability]] to pull the Needles. He then sets out to fufill this quest, with Aeolia's Needle in [[Osohe Castle]] been already been pulled by the [[Masked Man]]. Before he leaves on his quest, however, [[Flint]] indirectly gives him his prized [[Franklin Badge|Courage Badge]], as a good luck charm.

Throughout his adventure to pull the Needles and bring peace to the world, Lucas visits many areas he hadn't before. On his way to pull the second Needle, he visits the [[Chimera Laboratory]] and learns more about the Chimeras, meets [[Dr. Andonuts]] and briefly reunites with [[Salsa]]. Salsa assists him with opening the door to the second Needle, only unlockable by a special dance. Lucas also finds [[Kumatora]] there, being taken in by [[Doria]] after she fell into the pond nearby Doria's house. Lucas then is able to pull the second Needle, and obtains [[PK Love]] β.

The sixth Needle is located by [[Ionia]]'s house, at [[Argilla Pass]] in the northern mountains. On the way to Ionia's house, Lucas meets the Mr. Saturn that was cleaning his old Courage Badge, and discovers that it was really an old [[Franklin Badge]]. Shortly afterwards, he meets with Ionia, and Ionia agrees to give him the Waters of Time needed to open the temple holding the sixth Needle. However, right outside of the temple. the Masked Man is there accompanied by [[Pigmask]]s, and they fight over the Needle. The Masked Man attempts to take them down in one hit with lightning, however, the Franklin Badge Lucas received earlier reflects the lightning back to him, giving Lucas the upper hand in combat. They finally manage to take him down and Lucas successfully pulls the sixth Needle, learning PK Love Ω in the process.

Shortly afterwards, he is invited to move to [[New Pork City]] by the request of the Pig King. Lucas is forced to come to the city, and he finds that most of Tazmily villagers have moved to New Pork City. During his stay in the city, he learns of the shocking history behind the [[Nowhere Islands]] and Tazmily Village from [[Leder]], and invades the [[Empire Pork Building]], the Pig Army's main headquarters, in hopes of taking them down once and for all. Lucas meets the Pig King, [[Porky]], at the very top of the building, however, before they may fight, they're sent down a long elevator, leading to a cavern deep under the city. The seventh Needle happens to be located here, and after a long fight with Porky, Lucas is finally close to reaching the seventh and final Needle.

Flint is on the ground on the path to the final Needle, without his hat. He states to Lucas that he's positive that the Masked Man's true identity is [[Claus]], and Lucas finds himself unable to fight him knowing this fact. He presses onwards anyway, and finds the Masked Man standing near the final Needle. The Masked Man attacks Lucas with a bolt of lightning, only to be deflected back at him. However, the lightning seems to have only been deflected for Lucas, as everyone else around him has fallen unconscious. They are then locked in combat, with Lucas lacking the will to attack his long-lost brother, while the Masked Man fails to recognize Lucas and simply continues attacking him. Many times throughout the battle, [[Hinawa]]'s voice calls out to the boys, and after many long turns, Claus finally comes to his senses and stops attacking Lucas. Claus then electrocutes himself and slowly dies, struggling to walk over to Lucas to give him one last embrace. He says to Lucas that he's "going to where mom is now", and apologizes for being hasty and all of the troubles everyone has gone through. He passes away in Lucas's arms, and he is left to pull the final Needle and recreate the world, filling it with peace.

In the Subspace Emissary, he is seen trying to run from [[Porky]], and is later paired up with [[Ness]] and [[BP:Red (game)#Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Pokémon Trainer]], after the former is turned into a trophy. Lucas's abilities are the same as Ness's, with the exception of Lucas's PK Freeze and other minor changes from Ness's moves.

===Moves===
In the Subspace Emissary (first appearing in The Ruined Zoo level), he is seen trying to run from [[Porky]], but trips over some debris and is saved from the statue by Ness, teaming up with [[Ness]] and later the [[bulbapedia:Red_%28game%29#Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl|Pokémon trainer]], after the former is turned into a trophy. Lucas and Ness both have PK thunder, PK Fire, and PSI magnet in their movesets. Lucas's side smash is also very similar to Ness, and PK Freeze behaves similarly to PK Flash. Lucas and Ness share a final Smash, PK Starstorm. Aside from this, Ness and Lucas' movesets are entirely different. He is a default character unlike Ness.
===Super Smash Bros. 4===
It was revealed in the Nintendo Direct broadcast on 1 April 2015 that Lucas would feature as a downloadable character in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U''. He was released on June 14, 2015. He retains his special moves and Final Smash from ''Brawl''.
