He is a yordle scout from Bandle City, who defends his homeland from intruders. While he is jovial and friendly around his fellow yordles, at work he is a strategist who shows no mercy to his enemies.

He was initially voiced by an unknown voice actor, and is currently voiced by Melissa Hutchison, whom also voiced Ashe in the same series. In the Japanese version, he is voiced by Ikue Ōtani, whom also voiced Pikachu, Tony Tony Chopper and Morgana.

Biography[]

Teemo is famous amongst his fellow yordles in Bandle City, but they know that there is something is off about him. Despite his kind personality, he becomes serious during missions and insists to travel alone. Even when he was a recruit, he shocked his instructors when he dropped his affability and became serious and efficient during the exercises. This resulted in his instructors steering him towards Bandle City's Scouts of the Mothership.

While most yordle scouts would have trouble going solo, Teemo not only excelled at doing so, but he gained a reputation as one of the most dangerous yordles alive. He took on his signature blowgun, using a poison gathered from the Kumungu Jungle. To help cope with his long periods of isolation, Teemo became friends with Tristana, a fellow member of the Bandle City special forces. Teemo is a pint-sized foe that many have come to fear and whose small size belies his fearsome resolve.

Don't Mess With Yordles[]

Teemo went to Rat Town in Bilgewater in search of a pet, where he was captured by the notable crime duo Twisted Fate and Graves. In Bandle City, Tristana wished to travel to Bilgewater alone to save Teemo, but Lulu and Corki wanted to help too. Tristana gave them decoy missions to distract them as she went to save her friend, but they captured her as well, causing the other two yordles to save them both. Corki crashed his plane and got captured too, but Lulu arrived having used her magic to grow herself, throwing a hissy fit at Tristana since the rock didn't do anything. Lulu inadvertently stopped Graves and caused him to shoot the cage free, causing the yordles to escape and fight back. After asking Teemo what he came to Bilgewater for, he revealed that he wanted to adopt a pet by capturing a giant sea worm. Afterwards, the four yordles head back to Bandle City through the portal they entered from.
