Leon (Japanese: レオン Reon), known as the Dream Thief, appears in the episode “Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief!” (BW045). He uses his Psychic-type Beheeyem to ensnare Trainers in elaborate dream resorts, during which time he steals their Pokémon.
History[]
Leon first spies on Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Meowth while they’re camping, then sends out Beheeyem to befriend Meowth and fulfill the group's wishes—like a proper bed—luring them into a shared dream. Under the illusion of a dream resort, he seizes all their Pokémon as they sleep. Officer Jenny and her Duosion reveal the deception and try to force everyone awake. However, Meowth repeatedly falls back asleep, sustaining the illusion until he’s awakened by spicy berries and Pikachu's Thunderbolt. With Meowth awake, the dream shatters, and Leon attempts to escape, but is confronted by an irate Meowth and captured by Officer Jenny, his Pokémon license revoked and imprisoned.
