Biography[]
While Dueling in the Daimon Area, Jesse defeats his opponent's "Giant Orc" with "Lycanthrope", telling him to try harder after the Duel ends. In the dub, a spectator asks if Jesse is in fact Joey Wheeler, to which another promptly replies, "No man, that's his cousin Jesse Wheeler".
In the Japanese version, Jesse was unnamed and not stated to be a relative of Joey Wheeler.
