Lucas Headcanons
My personal headcanons of how I view Lucas and what he will be like in this blog! This should hopefully help to get to know him better. I will update this when I think of more stuff and pin this so that you’ll be able to access this post easier!
General Headcanons
In my headcanon Lucas is Professor Rowan's assistant due to the influence of his dad working in the lab already
Lucas went to the Trainer's School in Jubilife City when he was younger before he was Professor Rowan's assistant. He was very dedicated in learning more about Pokémon which helped in him getting good grades
He has a keen interest in learning in general and always loves learning more about stuff even if it’s very niche trivia
Currently he is 14 years old, the same age as Dawn and Barry
His star sign is Virgo
His MBTI is INFJ
His main Pokémon is Turtwig - later evolved Torterra. The other Pokémon in his team consist of Magmortar, Gallade, Gliscor, Kabutops, Absol. He also has a Clefairy that he doesn’t really use for battle and a Leafeon that he raised since it was an Eevee. (I might edit this, I'm basing this on some of the Pokémon he has on the game. He most likely has more Pokémon e.g the other Pokémon he uses in the game)
He has a keen interest in the Pokémon Eevee due to the many different eeveelutions they have and wishes to raise several Eevees to help him with his research
Lucas is a fairly calm and polite individual. He has a lot of patience and doesn't often lose his temper unless it regards Pokémon being mistreated or if someone is hurting one of his friends. He is in general very kindhearted and often puts other people’s needs over his own
Lucas enjoys cooking in his spare time and is also very fond of gardening - he likes going to Floraroma town occassionally to view the flowers
Lucas wishes to travel as many different regions as he can to experience the different cultures and learn about Pokémon that are not native to Sinnoh
Dawn Headcanons
From the first time they met, Lucas could see that Dawn was a lot more unsure and less confident in venturing off on her own in comparison to Barry. Due to this he made sure to let her known that he was always there if she needed help in anything and helped Dawn in her first steps of becoming a Pokémon trainer by showing her how to catch Pokémon and telling her all about Pokémon Centers and the Poké marts
Lucas can’t help but worry over Dawn and feel a little protective near the start of her journey and so he acts as a somewhat reliable “mentor” by making sure she’s alright whenever they cross paths and encouraging her by giving her some helpful tips
When he starts developing feelings for Dawn (not too sure when that does happen yet) he doesn’t realise it himself that he does like her. He knew that he was fond of Dawn and cared a lot about her but he initially thought this was because he saw her as a good friend. He even dismissed it when Mars teased the two as a lovey dovey couple. It wasn’t until when Dawn went into the Distortion World that he realised that he saw Dawn as more as a friend
He becomes super proud of Dawn when she becomes much more confident in her skills as a Pokémon trainer that it ends up motivating him to better himself as well
Lucas likes to watch Dawn’s Pokémon Contests whenever he can to show his support. However since he can be pretty busy at times, it’s harder for him to travel to Heathrow City to go and see her so instead he mainly watches it from the TV at his home. His sister likes to tease Lucas whenever she sees her brother watching the contest
He absolutely loves Dawn’s smile and optimism he can’t help but feel happy when he sees her like that
He’s quite awkward in their relationship at first since he doesn’t have any experience in being in a relationship. He ends up overthinking things that he wouldn’t usually and has trouble initiating stuff as he doesn’t want Dawn to be uncomfortable.
Barry Headcanons
Barry does find Lucas a little boring at times as he thinks Lucas is too serious and thinks that Dawn isn’t as fun when she hangs out with him
Barry knows that Dawn has a crush on Lucas and is pretty protective over Dawn due to her being his closest friend. He claims that if Lucas ever breaks Dawn’s heart that he’s going to fine him so hard.
Overall Barry believes that Lucas is a good guy and trusts that he’ll be good to Dawn
Lucas often wishes he was as close to both Dawn and Barry are and does tend to feel a little left out watching them from the sidelines as he doesn’t particular have many close friends his age
Lucas tries to at times try to become better friends with Barry but he’s not the best at talking to him with topics that can interest Barry as he can be a little socially awkward
Other / Misc Headcanons
I can imagine him being really good friends with Victor from the Galar region. Lucas one day wants to visit the Galar region to see the Dynamax phenomenom in person and he ends up meeting Victor in the Wild Area who treats him to a Galarian curry
