Meyer: Difference between revisions

'''Meyer''' (Japanese: '''リモーネ''' ''Limone'') is a recurring character in the {{pkmn|anime}}. He is the father of {{an|Clemont}} and {{an|Bonnie}}. He is also the identity of '''Blaziken Mask''' (Japanese: '''バシャーモかめん''' ''Bursyamo Mask'').

Meyer first appeared as Blaziken Mask in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]''. He was first seen standing on a rooftop in [[Lumiose City]] after his {{p|Blaziken}} saved {{Ash}} from falling off of the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]]. The two then left by leaping away.

He appeared in person for the first time in ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', riding a motorcycle with his {{p|Ampharos}} in [[Lumiose City]]. After surprising his two children, Clemont and Bonnie introduced him as their father and the manager of an electrical appliance store. Learning that his two children have new friends, he was moved and started crying. While Clemont introduced him to {{an|Serena}}, Meyer praised his son for finding "a beautiful girlfriend." Before leaving, he reminded Clemont that strictness is not enough for one to become a Trainer and unintentionally revealed to {{Ash}} and Serena that Clemont is also the Lumiose [[Gym Leader]]. At the end of the episode, Clemont revealed to him that the [[Clembot]] would temporarily serve as the Gym Leader, while he and Bonnie would travel with Ash and Serena to become stronger. Deeply moved, he hugged his two children and called for a party to celebrate, allowing them to continue on their journey. While the children were sleeping, Blaziken Mask leaped off the buildings in Lumiose City.

Meyer reappeared in [[XY010|the next episode]], when Ash and Clemont passed by him and Ampharos as they pursued {{TRT}}. He arrived as Blaziken Mask using his Blaziken to save Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|Serena}}, {{an|Clemont}}, {{an|Bonnie}}, [[Professor Sycamore]], and {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}} from Team Rocket's mecha before the two leap away. He was seen in a flashback in ''[[XY048|A Campus Reunion]]''.

Meyer reappeared in ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness!]]'' when he reunited with Bonnie and Clemont once more. He came to Lumiose City's police station after the Clembot had been arrested by [[Officer Jenny]]. When [[Alexa]] appeared and she told the group that she had been investigating the crimes the Clembot had been framed for, she mentioned that Blaziken Mask had some involvement in it. Hearing this, Meyer became visibly nervous. That night, he changed into Blaziken Mask and hurried to the [[Lumiose Museum]], where Ash and his friends were battling the culprit actually responsible for the Clembot's crimes. At the spot, he had his Blaziken defeat Team Rocket, who had just stolen the Clembot and the [[Dark Clembot]], the robot responsible for the crimes. After this, he watched his son and the Clembot battle the Dark Clembot and its creator [[Belmondo]]. When Belmondo was defeated by Clemont and arrested by Officer Jenny, he asked Ash and Clemont about their Gym Battle, and then quickly left, wishing them good luck with their battle. In [[XY067|the next episode]], Meyer watched the Gym Battle between Ash and his son.

In ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]'', he reappeared as Blaziken Mask. His true identity was discovered and known by [[Professor Sycamore]] by the end of the episode.

Meyer reappeared in ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', where he, along with Clembot, provided some food to Ash and {{ashfr}} along with [[Sawyer]] and their Pokémon. Meyer next appeared during ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', doing some work on a roof with Clembot listening to the match with [[Alain]] and Ash on the radio.

He reappeared in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', saving Bonnie from some rampant vines that were being generated by [[Z2]]. He then tried to stop her from confronting Squishy.

He reappeared in ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', where he protected Bonnie from a rampant Squishy. He initially tried to prevent her from confronting the mind-controlled Order Pokémon, but once more relented upon seeing how much Bonnie cared for Squishy. When it seemed Zygarde was going to attack Bonnie anyway, even after she sang her song for it, Meyer was prepared to use his body as a living shield for Bonnie, but Squishy snapped out of its mind control and redirected the attack.  

He appeared again in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'' where he and Blaziken were among those trying to stop the [[Giant Rock]]. After an attack, his secret identity was accidentally revealed to his children.

He appeared again in ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', where he helped repair the Lumiose Gym. Later, he refereed the Gym battle between Clembot and [[Alvin]]. He also reappeared in ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.

He reappeared again in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', during some flashbacks.

|desc={{p|Blaziken}} is the only Pokémon which Meyer uses under Blaziken Mask identity. It first appeared in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'' as a [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Blaziken, where it was seen by Ash after leaping off of a flight control tower and quickly disappeared in a flash. In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', Blaziken saved Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} from falling to their deaths off of the Prism Tower by catching them in midair in its Mega Evolved state and set them safely on the ground. It then returned to its Trainer, who congratulated it right before they left. It made another appearance in ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', where it leaped around Lumiose City with its Trainer. In the [[XY010|next episode]], Blaziken was used to damage Team Rocket's mecha, which allowed Pikachu and {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}} to finish it off.
