Biology

Riolu is a canine Pokémon that is little and blue. It is black on the body and legs, blue on the tail, and yellow on the collar. The backs of its forepaws have rounded bumps. It has a black “mask” on its face and crimson eyes. It walks on its toes rather than its full foot. It is sensitive to a sort of energy known as Aura; yet, it lacks the capacity to fully use these abilities, while it can still emit these waves to communicate and feel them, although in ripples. It has grown two black appendages from its head that rise when Riolu reads or manipulates aura. Riolu has even been shown to detect and respond to Aura before they hatch. Riolu, like virtually other Fighting-type Pokémon, possesses superhuman strength, stamina, and endurance and can travel large distances on foot in a short length of time. It is a cheerful, lively, and devoted Pokémon.
