Amp Plains tribes

The Luxio Tribe (also known as the Luxio Clan, Luxray's Tribe, or Luxray's clan) is a group of eight Luxio led by a Luxray. They are very territorial, and follow a "strike first, ask later" strategy. They were in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, but were replaced by Manectric and eight Electrike in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky.

History and In-game Role

Template:Spoiler According to Dusknoir, Luxray's clan, or in Explorers of Sky Manectric's clan, was once a peaceful tribe, roaming around in search of a place for temporary rest. However, once they were attacked by a fearsome foe, and ever since they always "strike first for fear of being stricken". They reside in Amp Plains often, for it is cloaked by thunderstorms during parts of the year. During the time in which the player adventures, Team Skull takes Azurill's Water Float and places it in Amp Plains, within Luxray or Manectric's habitat. The player and partner go to regain it. The player tries to hide from the clan, to find it useless; Luxray claims to see any that hide while Manectric would prefer that they hide so he could sneak up quietly from behind. Realizing that hiding is useless, they stand up to the challenge, but find themselves surrounded.

After the fight, as Luxray or Manectric uses a last-ditch attack that resembles Shock Wave, Dusknoir blocks it, saving the player and partner. The clan then leaves, never seen again.

Trivia

• The Luxray and Luxio tribe has been replaced by the Manectric and Electrike tribe in the game's sequel. This is possibly due to one of the starter and partner choices in this game being Shinx.
• Though Luxray appears to use an Template:Type2 move similar to Shock Wave after the battle, it doesn't know any damaging moves of this type.
  • Manectric appears to use the same move as Luxray in Explorers of Sky. The only damaging Electric type move Manectric knows is Spark which is not a move that can be used to attack from a distance like the move used at the end of the battle.
