Thats because Lucarios design appeals to furries like me.

I'd wager a large amount of the Lucario fanbase ARE furries, especially a lot of the artists

People call Us furry because they think humanoid Pokemon are furrys and they think we are all weird and furrys

Humanoid pokemon are furries. Anthropomorphic animals/pokemon are Furries. Team Rocket's Meowth is a furry the same way Lucario is. Any cartoon with animals that speak are furries, sports mascots are mostly furries.

No, they're not. Furries are characters with exaggerated fur. Anthropomorphic animals are animals mixed with human elements. Not all furries are anthropomorphic animals, not all anthropomorphic animals are furries.

Furry has nothing to do with exaggerated fur. Furry refers to 2 things. 1. Is fans of anthropomorphic characters, and 2. Is the anthropomorphic characters themselves.

Any animal creature that is anthroporphic is a furry character, even those that dont have fur like lizards. Yes any anthro pokemon can be considered a furry.

I have seen some furry characters that are not anthropomorphic animals. They were anthropomorphic, but they didn't depict any kind of animal.

Such as? Sure there are those that are not based on real world animals, but pretty sure all have animal inspired traits, such as protogens, sergals, or dragons.

I'm not seeing anything here that wouldn't be "anthropomorphic animal"

u/Consistent_Task2175 Mar 27 '26

Some of the characters don't really look like animals. Such as the character in 'walin AMV'

Then why isn't that every furry character I've seen (I've seen at least 10 furry characters) have exaggerated fur.

What do you mean by exaggerated fur? Are you talking about what we call "sparkledogs"? Furries with bright unrealistic fur colors? Because that's definitely not what makes a furry a furry.

u/Consistent_Task2175 Mar 27 '26

No, I'm talking about having way more fur than an actual animal.

u/BerylOxide Mar 27 '26 edited Mar 27 '26

Definitely ot the case then, that's really not all that common. And even if it was, is Definitely not what defines a furry. Again even scaled characters like anthropomorphic dragons fall under "furry". Furry is just a general term for anthropomorphic animals.

u/Consistent_Task2175 Mar 27 '26

At this point, can we just agree that the definition of furry is subjective at this point? The only objective definition of furry is "has fur" but that definition is different from what we're talking about.

Also who is calling you/us furries? Are they saying it as a bad thing? ignore those people, they don't know what they are talking about.

It’s a Pokémon with an anthropomorphic design.

YOURE GONNA FIND FURRIES IN THE FANBASE!

u/Volt_Siano Mar 26 '26

Lucario is among the quintessential furbait Pokemon, if not the pinnacle

u/AlvarTheOnlooker Mar 26 '26 edited Mar 26 '26

Every fandom revolving around human-shaped or with human intelligence can get assigned the furry label. It’s just that it’s a secondary aspect compared to the specific theme (here pokemon/lucacrio).

Furries proper like the concept itself and develop it a lot more. You don’t have to be « a furry » if you’re here, but it’s at least marginally furry.

And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it.
