This build revolves around using Extreme Speed to hit your opponents with a high damage priority move. STAB Close Combat also allows Lucario to go up against Pokemon like Meowscarada and Garganacl.
Electing for Focus Sash as your held item allows Lucario to use Close Combat and still be able to take a hit.
The Normal Tera Typing allows Lucario to further boost the damage of Extreme Speed, and turns most of its usual weaknesses into neutral damage, except for Fighting.
Meteor Mash | Steel type move alternative with a higher base power. |

Swords Dance | Can setup a sweep with Swords Dance into Extreme Speed |

Item: Life Orb | Play Rough 103 ~ 122 (71 ~ 84.1%) Guaranteed 2-Hit KO |
This Lucario build makes use of Priority moves Extreme Speed and Bullet Punch to hit your opponents regardless of their Speed. This can catch your opponent off guard, giving you an early advantage by dealing decent damage while your opponent tries to setup.
Lucario's priority moves allow it to be used as an aggressive lead, dealing as much damage to the enemy team as possible to make sweeping easier for the rest of the team.
Aggressive Lead | Bulky Offense | Physical Sweeper |

Lucario | Dragonite | Mimikyu |
Lucario's main damaging moves are Extreme Speed and Close Combat, which both don't affect Ghost type Pokemon.
