{{nihongo|'''Leorio'''|レオリオ|Reorio}} is one of the four main characters from the series [[Hunter x Hunter]] by [[Yoshihiro Togashi]].

==Background==

Leorio meets Gon just as Gon leaves Whale Island to take the Hunter Exam. Much is unknown about Leorio. What we do know is that he once lost a close friend, Pietro, to a debilitating illness. Leorio feels deeply remorseful about being unable to save his friend, as the illness was entirely curable, but required a surgery he could not afford. Thus, he aspires to become a doctor--one that not only cures the ill of their disease, but also waives the fee for the poor. In this light, his outwardly superficial reason to join the Hunter Exams in the pursuit of great wealth has a more noble justification--the money he gains is used not only to fund for his medical school fees, but also to pay for the medicine and other miscellaneous expenditures when treating those who can't afford it.

==Personality==

Leorio is not one who balks and retreats when faced against overwhelming odds in battle. A loyal, trustworthy ally who greatly values the ties of friendship, he acts like the 'big brother' of the group. He often provides comic relief; Killua normally ridicules him for his comparatively older age. His impulsive and brash nature has sometimes caused more trouble to people around him. Another flair he has is his ability to 'straight-talk' past any situation at hand.
Though he is often outshone by the genius combat abilities of Gon and Killua, it should be noted that compared to the average man, Leorio is indeed very powerful. He was shown to be physically stronger than Gon (when neither are using nen), when he opened the second gate to the Zaoldyeck estate. His weapon of choice is a straight razor, and is skilled at using it.

==Nen Abilities==
As of the Genei Ryodan arc, Leorio has been shown to only master [[Nen#Ten|Ten]], and has been learning more of the basic techniques from Gon and Killua. He has not yet developed his own [[Nen#Hatsu|Hatsu]].
