Johnnyleon

Johnnyleon (ジョン・レオン Jon Reon, John Leon) is a Red/Alien/Zombie enemy introduced in Uncanny Legends.
==Enemy==
Johnnyleon is a Long Distance enemy with a massive amount of health, the same as Relic Bun-Bun. If allowed to move, he is somewhat quick on his feet, and his two knockbacks may make it difficult to regain distance from him. His Long Distance Area Attacks are frequent, but they are fairly weak and they do not come with any status effects, so unless a unit is stuck inside his attack range for way too long it isn't too much of an issue. His Zombie trait doesn't match the behavior of most other zombies, as he does not revive or burrow.
Johnnyleon is frequently found in conjunction with several backliners that cover his blind spot, such as Angelic Sleipnir and H. Nah who join him in Rainbow Bridge Toll, and Maawth and Alpacky in Flask Hill. This complicates things, as the backliners will try to defeat whatever is in Johnnyleon's blind spot, and if they succeed, then Johnnyleon will not hesitate to move up again due to his unusually low standing range for a Long Distance unit.
==Strategy==
The typical strategy against Johnnyleon is not to defeat him as soon as possible, but rather to fit lots of Long Distance and Wave Attackers into his blind spot and let them target him in order to snipe the backline that is supporting him. This works because Johnnyleon's immense health pool and few knockbacks means that the backline will go down quicker than he does and that the attackers will only have to worry about entering the backliner's range about once or so when Johnnyleon is knocked back for the first time. Units applicable for this strategy include Medalist Cat, Housewife Cat and Manic Macho Legs.
If Johnnyleon is alone, or in a situation where it is actually a better idea to prioritize taking him out first, he is best dealt with by piling cheap short-range attackers onto him who have Massive Damage or Strong Against abilities for any of his traits, as his weak Long Distance attacks are not of much concern. Many units are applicable for this strategy; some include Elemental Duelist Cat, Chill Cat and Cadaver BearCat.

==Trivia==
*Aside from being a play on "chameleon", Johnnyleon's name and description reference John Lennon, a famous singer and songwriter and co-founder of The Beatles. This is more apparent in his Japanese description, which claims he was an active band member but split from them due to a disagreement with "Beetle".
*Johnnyleon's traits, combined with his debut stage being Rainbow Bridge Toll, may reference Chrome's "Rainbow Bridge" technique in Dr. Stone, where he throws various minerals into a fire to produce flames of three different colors: amber, blue, and purple, in that order.
*He has the highest health of all Red and Alien enemies and is tied with Daboo of the Dead for the highest health of all Zombie enemies.
*He is tied with Lophiiformes Angaburu for the most types of any non-event enemy, with three.
*Johnnyleon and Bears Be Back are the only Zombie enemies not to revive.
**Despite their inability to revive, the Zombie Killer sound and graphic will play if they are defeated by a cat with that ability.
