Etymology[]
Lucius is derived from the Latin word for "light". His name is also derived from Lucius Heinous VII from the Canadian television show "Jimmy Two-Shoes."
Biography[]
According to an ancient story, Lucius was an ancient adventurer who traveled across the regions, capturing the strongest Pokémon and treasures around the world. With his main partner, Rayquaza, he found five other likeminded Pokémon; Arboliva, Moltres, Lapras, Entei and Kleavor, who were subsequently called the Six Heroes. These Pokémon were kept in ancient Poké Balls and traveled from region to region until they found "paradise" and settled down there. At some point, he asked someone or something to find "it" - the paradise that was later revealed to be named Laqua.
After finding out about Terapagos through the Scarlet Book, Lucius became interested in Laqua. He later saved Rystal from a group of poachers, and met Gibeon at a cafe, forming the foundation of the Explorers. During his journey with his companions Gibeon and Rystal, Lucius and Rystal fell in love and wedded with each other, which later resulted in them having their daughter Leila. Unfortunately, Lucius met his premature passing, due to needing to protect Rystal, after Gibeon went insane and misused the Laqurium to cause wild Pokémon on attacking Lucius and Rystal. Afterwards, Lucius was implied to have disappeared (or even died) during the ensuing quake, leaving the devastated Rystal and Terapagos, and his eventual daughter never being able to know him.
After the devastating battle between Gibeon and Lucius, Lucius' Pokémon were scattered across the world; Rayquaza ended up with Roy's grandfather, Arboliva ended up in a forest near Artazon, Moltres ended up in the Galar Mines, Lapras out at sea, of which the latter three, including Kleavor, later end up with Lucius' great-great-granddaughter, Liko. As of the now, the current location and status of Entei is unknown.

Trivia[]
- It is suggested that Lucius has a familial connection to Liko through her mother's side. Several contributing factors include:
- The presence of Terapagos among Lucius' belongings in Diana's childhood home.
- The reaction of the first three of the six heroes to Liko.
- Lucius' physical appearance, which resembles an older male version of Liko.
- This connection was confirmed in "PH074", where it was revealed that Lucius is Liko's-great-grandfather.
