You get a Riolu egg from Riley, once you've gone through Iron Island with him. It will evolve into Lucario if you level up during the daytime, and Riolu is happy.

You can make it happy by keeping it your party and battling with it regularly. Also make it hold a Soothe Bell and give it a massage in Veilstone City.

or in Ribbon Syndicate in Resort area (check map) after u beat E4
What Pokemaster said was right.  Just beware, you need to have an empty slot in your party or you cannot accept the egg.
There are also berries that make Pokemon happy, however, they reduce stats.
Yes a decent way to make a riley happy is to  train him during the day and he will evolve,though you should still keep lucariop happier and happier
That's right. If you want more  than one riolu/lucario, you can simply breed it.

Go to Iron Island and talk to this guy
called Riley.
He will give you an egg with Riolu in it.
Hatch the egg and wa la!
You have Riolu!
PS I am a big Riolu fan!
