Riolu is a fighting-type baby Pokémon. It evolves into Lucario when it has high friendship and during the daytime. Brick Bronze is not an original Pokémon game, but was instead created by fans for fans as an online role-playing game where players can catch Pokémon as well as interact with other Pokémon trainers. This wikiHow will show you how to evolve a Riolu in Pokémon Brick Bronze.

  1. Route 8 is a stretch of road between Lagoona Lake and Rosecove City.
    • Walk in tall grassy patches to encounter Riolu. It's a low 3% encounter rate, so it might take you a bit to find one.[1]
    • Use a Luxury Ball to capture Riolu. These Poké balls are much more comfortable to the Pokémon and will increase its happiness as well as increase future happiness-gaining activities. You can purchase a Luxury Poké Ball from the Poké Ball Emporium in the Shopping District of Anthian City.[2]
  2. Riolu will only evolve into Lucario when its happiness meter is maxed. To check your Riolu's happiness meter, you'll have to go to the NPC in the small house where the second gym leader is (Brimber City). When he says, “It's extremely friendly toward you. It couldn't possibly love you more,” then your Riolu's happiness meter is maxed, and your Riolu is ready to evolve.
    • Walk with Riolu in your party.
    • Give your Riolu a Soothe Bell to hold in battles, which has similar effects to the Luxury Ball. The Soothe Bell increases the number of happiness results from any happiness-increasing activity, like battling. You can get a Soothe Bell from Kevin Cat in the Skitty Lodge on Route 16.[3]
    • Winning Pokémon battles will increase your Riolu's happiness level. As long as your Riolu doesn't faint, the win will increase its happiness.

  3. Once your Riolu's happiness is maxed, you need to level it once during the daytime before it can evolve.
    • Try to seek out what is weak against your Riolu for battles. Riolu is a fighting-type Pokémon and is strongest against normal-, ice-, steel-, and rock-types, like Rattata, Dewgong, Aron, and Golem. Fighting ice-type Pokémon means your Riolu has a higher success rate, meaning you will gain experience faster.
    • Avoid fighting Pokémon that are strong against your Riolu. Riolu has a weakness against poison-, flying-, psychic-, bug-, and fairy Pokémon like Arbok, Zubat, Natu, Ledyba, and Marill.
  4. Once Riolu has a full happiness meter and levels in the daytime, it will evolve automatically into Lucario.
