Leon (anime): Difference between revisions

In ''[[JN115|Curtain Up! Fight the Fights!]]'', Leon participated in the [[Masters Eight Tournament]], along with the rest of the Masters Eight, reuniting with Ash and Lance, and meeting {{an|Iris}}, [[Alain]], and the other regional Champions. His first opponent was chosen to be Alain. Despite Alain managing to defeat Leon's Gigantamax {{p|Rillaboom}}, Leon still won the match without needing to use his final Pokémon at all. In the [[JN116|next episode]], Leon watched Lance and [[Diantha]]'s battle, where the [[Kalos]] Champion emerged victorious. After the battle, Leon was shown to be looking forward to battling Diantha in the semi-finals. In the [[JN117|following]] [[JN118|episodes]], Leon watched the rest of the quarterfinal matches with the other Masters Eight members.

In [[JN127]], Leon called Ash and Goh to [[Wyndon Stadium]], where he revealed that he, Professor Magnolia, and Sonia had been working with Eternatus for it to become comfortable around people ever since the Darkest Day incident. Seeing this, Goh decided to entrust Eternatus to Leon.

In ''[[JN115|Curtain Up! Fight the Fights!]]'', Charizard was the second Pokémon Leon used during his [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match against [[Alain]]. It easily defeated his {{p|Malamar}} and [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X, making Leon the winner of the battle.

In [[JN131]], Charizard was Leon's sixth Pokémon during his Masters Eight Tournament match against Ash. After Gigantamaxing, Charizard clashed with Ash's Pikachu's {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}} [[Z-Move]], which caused {{TP|Leon|Eternatus}} to awaken and appear at [[Wyndon Stadium]]. After being briefly recalled in favor of {{p|Cinderace}} in [[JN132|the next episode]], Charizard resumed its battle with Pikachu. Both Pokémon gave it their all, with Charizard ultimately falling and suffering its first loss in an official battle, thus causing Leon to lose the match.

In ''[[JN100|Meeting Up with the Monarch!]]'', Dragapult was used in Leon's training. Sometime later, Leon used Dragapult to confront a pair of {{p|Corviknight}} that attacked him and {{Ash}}.

In [[JN130]], Leon used Dragapult as his fourth Pokémon in his Masters Eight Tournament battle against Ash, where it fought against {{AP|Dracovish}}, {{AP|Lucario}}, and {{AP|Dragonite}}. It was able to defeat [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Lucario, before losing to Dragonite.

|desc={{p|Rillaboom}} is Leon's third known Pokémon. Like Charizard, it is capable of [[Gigantamax]]ing. It was the first Pokémon that Leon used in his [[Masters Eight Tournament]] battle against [[Alain]]. It went up against his {{p|Chesnaught}} and won, only to lose to [[Alain's Charizard]] afterwards.

In [[JN130]], Rillaboom was sent out to battle [[Ash's Dragonite]] as Leon's fifth Pokémon in the Masters Eight Tournament finals. In [[JN131|the next episode]], it battled and defeated Dragonite and {{AP|Sirfetch'd}}, before losing to {{AP|Dracovish}}.
