Description
Crossovers 39 and 40, about 4/10 of the way.While trying out some abilities, something occurred, causing these two brothers to become Pichus.
Lucas
Lucas is the main character of Mother 3.
He has a brother named Claus, and parents named Flint and Hinawa.
He has blonde hair, a red and yellow striped shirt, and is capable of using PSI, a psychokinetic ability found in other games in the series.
He is characterized as a crybaby during the first few chapters, but matures once the game reaches Chapter 4 and after he aides in fighting the Pigmask Army.
The game's perspective switches between other main characters until this chapter, where Lucas becomes the main character.
As Lucas and Boney reunite with Duster and Kumatora, two of their fellow party members, and battle the Pigmask Army.
He eventually goes on the quest to find the Seven Needles, ending up in New Pork City and battling King Porky and the Masked Man.
Lucas and his twin brother are based on twin characters from the Agota Kristof novel Le Grand Cahier, who have similar names to the twins from Mother 3.
The Nintendo 64 version was going to span a period of ten years, and Lucas would age over that span of time.
There were originally going to be approximately ten main characters across the game's plot, with Lucas being referred to by Itoi as the main character of them all.
The final version had only six main characters, but Lucas remained as the main character.
During Nintendo 64 development, Lucas was going to have a voice actor.
Lucas was featured in Super Smash Bros.
Brawl as a newcomer playable character.
He has unique physical moves, while his special moves are based on those of Ness, the protagonist of Mother 3's predecessor.
He was originally going to replace Ness in Super Smash Bros. Melee, but due to the delays and eventual cancellation of EarthBound 64, Masahiro Sakurai decided to keep Ness.
He received multiple trophies and a sticker.
Before he was revealed as a playable character, IGN editor Lucas Thomas commented that he hoped that Lucas would be included.
Jeff Gerstmann commented that "it's sort of hard to be excited for Ness or Lucas, both from the Mother series that hasn't been seen in the US since the SNES days."
There was debate whether Lucas would replace Ness in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, or if they would be playable together due to the similarity in their movesets and the fact that he was going to replace him in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Ness was eventually confirmed to be playable as well.
Claus
Claus is Lucas' twin brother, and son of Flint and Hinawa, who is characterized as being far braver than Lucas.
Like his brother, his name comes from the French novel The Notebook.
He was found in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in the form of a sticker, as well as an alternate costume for Lucas, who is playable in it.
IGN's Lucas Thomas expected that because Lucas made it into Super Smash Bros. Brawl, he expected him to show up in some form as well, perhaps in the form of a collectible item or as an alternate costume for Lucas.
These two pose a powerful duo, especially with their Psi Powers.
(To those who are a fan of these two and find it a bit of a disgrace to them, I'm sorry, but I never played the games so I got my info sources off the net, okay?)

DUDE I LOVE IT! ILUVITILOVEITILOVEIT AND FAV IT!
i knew Claus was Braver than lucas.....
however you didn't say what happened to Claus when the army attacked. he was kidnapped and brainwashed to fight for the army!<.<->.>-<.<->.> whoops.
anyway on the pic they look great too.
also- I HAD NO IDEA OR THOUGHT THEY THOUGHT OF MOTHER 3 BEFORE Melee and for lucas to be in.
the nintendo staff really like to put mother and earthbound as anynomous games. they made it for the nintendo 64! wow. i wouldn't play it but would surely want to know how it would look.
these are my favorite earthbound characters and made me think of extra characters all together in brawl(ex: dark link, daisy, blood falcon)

I've got the Masked Man ready to be submitted, it'll have the info on him and all that.
I'll get the link to a Youtube vid of Earthbound 64... which was cancelled in the middle of the production.
Also, I got the info from Wikipedia, like I said in the journal about the Ness Crossover, I NEVER played the games... we never got them at all, only till Super Smash Bros. had we known his existance.
