Lucian is an elegant man, who has blue hair and blue-tinted glasses. He wears a red suit, with a white handkerchief in his pocket, over his black collared shirt, and has black shoes.

Personality

As a bookish type, Lucian prides himself of his knowledge and reputation. He is very intelligent and observant, doing his best to uphold his high esteemed power. Even with his mastery of the mind, Lucian doesn't belittle people, in fact he's fairly respectful above anything.

Etymology

The name Lucian may come from name "lux" (Latin for light), "illusion," "hallucination," or possibly "lucid dream" (a dream in which the person experiencing it is aware that they're dreaming and have some measure of control over what happens in the dream).

His Japanese name, Goyō, may come from 陽 (yō, Japanese for yang (the positive, light-associated side of yin and yang)). Following the plant-based naming of most characters, it may also include 五葉松 (goyōmatsu, the Japanese name for the five-needle pine tree).

Biography

Platinum arc

Looker and Platinum remembered Lucian, due to his powerful status, for he was connected to the rest of the Elite Four, as well as the Gym Leaders and the Frontier Brains of Sinnoh region.

Aaron, Lucian and Bertha were reading through books, searching for mentions of Legendary Pokémon. Lucian noted all of these were written in the Charon Memo, while Aaron noted there were many Pokémon listed. Bertha, however, was concerned, as she hasn't heard of some of these, and feared that Charon could use all of these Pokémon to cause a greater incident than the one involving Dialga and Palkia. Later, the three elite trainers joined the Pokémon Association chairman, who introduced them as members of the Elite Four to Diamond and Pearl. Lucian showed all of the books they analyzed, and had them thrown onto the chairman. The trio explained that they analyzed a lot of the ancient runes, and even called Professor Oak to help them out. Before Pearl and Diamond went away, the latter asked why were they called the Elite Four if only three of them were here, to which the chairman noted that they weren't a team, like the Gym Leaders.
