Lucario - How to Get and Location, Evolution, and Research Tasks
Lucario benefits most from the Adamant Nature. The increase in Attack allows Lucario to better utilize its physical offense. Since most of its attacks are physical, it won't mind the drop in Special Attack.
While a speed increasing nature is often considered for battles in mainline Pokemon games, it doesn't play as big of a factor in Legends: Arceus due to every Pokemon's access to the Agile and Strong Styles. Make up for lower speed by planning around your turn order.
Agile and Strong Styles: How to Master Moves
Close Combat and Shadow Claw are the best moves for Lucario with fantastic power, decent accuracy, and PP. The Fighting / Ghost type combination is an unresisted combination that can hit every Pokemon for at least neutral damage. Bulk Up offers good utility by further empowering Lucario's offensive power.
This moveset also proves useful against the most difficult battles in the game. The moves listed above should be able to do significant damage against Volo's Lucario, Arcanine, and Giratina. Adding in Ice Punch gives Lucario a move to use against Togekiss, Roserade, and Garchomp. Be careful of Ground-type moves, though!
