History

Pre-series

Jessie's mother,Miyamoto, was a high-rankingTeam Rocket agent. When Jessie was around the age of five, Miyamoto left on a mission to theAndes to record the voice of the elusive PokémonMew. However, after Miyamoto disappeared, Jessie was put into a foster home which had very little money. There were times when she had no choice but to eat snow because of a lack of food, but she revealed inSnow Way Out! that the "snowgasboard" meals were one of her few happy childhood memories.

InCrossing Paths, it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with, namedAstin, who was leaving to become aPokémon Coordinator, and who has a current-day counterpartwith a similar name. She refused to go with him because she and two friends were training to become pop idols. Unfortunately, while her two friends passed, Jessie's audition didn't go well and her idol dreams were quashed.

Jessie as "Chainer Jessie" when she was part of the bridge bike gang

When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse. However, she was unable to go to a regular nursing school and went to thePokémon Nurse School, which was intended forChansey. She was quite skilled at things such as bandaging, and even showeda Chansey how to do it. She quickly became good friends with that Chansey. However, because she was not a Chansey herself, Jessie couldn't do things like useSing to soothe Pokémon, instead falling asleep herself. Ultimately, she failed to graduate, and on graduation day, she simply packed a bag and left. As she was leaving, Chansey came up to her and offered her her nurses' hat, but Jessie refused to take it. Chansey then broke her egg-shaped pendant she got as proof of graduating in half and gave one half to Jessie so that they would have something to remember each other by. In the episodeIgnorance is Blissey, Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into aBlissey.

InThe School of Hard Knocks, Jessie andJames toldMeowth that while they were at thePokémon Trainers' schoolPokémon Tech, they both received the lowest scores in the history of the school. The school later brought back bad memories for both Jessie and James.

After this, as revealed inThe Bridge Bike Gang, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang inSunnytown, where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nicknames "Big Jess" and "Chainer Jessie".

It was revealed inSpring Fever that she was supposedly a model at one point.

Upon arriving atLittleroot Town's port inHoenn Alone, Jessie indicated that she had been to the town sometime before and referred to it as "the city whose colors will never change", though she didn't elaborate further. Her past connection toHoenn was again hinted inAll Things Bright and Beautifly!, when Jessie was revealed to have an expired HoennContest Pass.

Sometime before joining Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. InXatu the Future, she revealed that she had once worked at a TV station as the weathergirl. InFrom Cradle to Save, it was revealed that she once was a ninja.

Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episodeTraining Daze, what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What is known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped withMeowth but they quickly made up and became good friends. While Jessie andCassidy quickly became bitter rivals, she had befriended trainee-hopefulChristopher and inspired him to pursue his ambitions outside of Team Rocket.

Team Rocket memberWendy held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink and instead made Wendy pay, but she got her revenge way later and added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill.

Pokémon the Series: The Beginning

Jessie and James's first appearance inPokémon Emergency!

Jessie made her debut inPokémon Emergency. Alongside James and Meowth, they set their sights on the injured Pokémon in theViridian Pokémon Center. Sending out theirEkans andKoffing from theirMeowth balloon, they quickly overtook the Pokémon Center, which only hadNurse Joy,Ash andMisty inside. Before they could steal any of the Pokémon, however,Ash's Pikachu, who teamed up with many otherPikachu in the Pokémon Center, used an electric attack, causing the entire Pokémon Center to explode. It was here that Team Rocket decided to capture Pikachu, deeming him as an exceptionally powerful Pokémon, and made it their goal to capture him.

InElectric Shock Showdown, after hearing that Pikachu would fight to defend his own honor and Ash's, the trio were inspired to cheer on Pikachu before his rematch againstVermilion Gym Leader Lt. Surge'sRaichu.

InBattle Aboard the St. Anne, the Team Rocket trio worked together with otherTeam Rocket Grunts to steal the Pokémon of all theTrainers on board theS.S. Anne. Out on the open ocean, Team Rocket began taking the Pokémon of everyone by force. Ash led a counterattack against the Rockets, leading to a large battle and many of the members of Team Rocket being blasted off through the side of the ship. Afterwards, the S.S. Anne started taking on water and sunk, trapping Team Rocket, Ash, and his friends underwater.When the two groups met up, they initially fought, but Misty took charge and directed all of them in an emergency escape plan before the ship fell into the depths of the sea floor. They eventually found an exit, with Team Rocket nearly drowning due to having to rely onJames's Magikarp to swim them to safety. After getting stranded, Magikarp evolved intoGyarados and sent them all flying with a cyclone made fromDragon Rage.

InThe Punchy Pokémon, Jessie entered theP1 Grand Prix after stealingGiant's clothes andHitmonlee. She used Giant's clothes as a disguise. She did not make it as Hitmonlee lost toPrimeape.

InPrincess vs. Princess, Jessie participated in thePrincess Festival. She caught aLickitung beforehand when it was caught stealing stuff fromTeam Rocket with its tongue, claiming to deal with it later. Jessie competed in the contest of the Princess Festival but was eliminated by Misty despite her Lickitung nearly defeating the entirety of the team that Misty used.

InThe Ultimate Test, Jessie decided to take thePokémon League Admissions Exam to see if she could enter theIndigo Plateau Conference and add that achievement to her résumé. However, during the theory test, she rose from her seat and started to argue withthe instructor, which led to her being expelled.

InThe Battle Of The Badge, Jessie, James, and Meowth were made the temporaryGym Leaders of theViridian Gym in Giovanni's place. Having rigged the platforms so that the Trainer feels the pain their Pokémon feels, they battled against Ash. Despite using Giovanni's Pokémon and cheating, they ultimately lost and were sentblasting off.

The Team Rocket triocontinued to follow Ash to theOrange Islands, where they were ordered by Giovanni to operate a blimp in an attempt to get rid of them. The three performed their duty as wait staff before realizing no one was piloting the blimp, and because of this it drifted straight into a storm. They then found Ash and friends and started a battle, which tore a hole in the blimp. Meowth attempted to make a parachute from some of the broken fabric, butJigglypuff landed on top of it andsang a song. Meowth, unable to stay awake, let go of the fabric, causing the trio to fall into the ocean and drift away.

Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver

InWobbu-Palooza!, she fought theWobbuffet Festival crashers with herWobbuffet and single-handedly defeated them. When she, James, and Meowth were leaving thefestival, they were caught with stolen food from the festival. Ash and his friends easily defeated them and got the food back.

InThe Trouble with Snubbull, Team Rocket first tried using Meowth as bait for a newly evolvedGranbull so they could collect a reward from the Granbull's owner,Madame Muchmoney. This failed, and they subsequently used a Meowth-shaped mecha for their next attempt. Through a misunderstanding over Meowth trying to release Granbull from the mecha's tail, Team Rocket were mistakenly assumed to have tricked Madame Muchmoney. When Team Rocket was blasted off following a battle between the mecha and Granbull, Granbull returned home and no longer followed Meowth.

InControl Freak!, she wore an ancient mask and scepter belonging to a queen from a long time ago. Using the items, Jessie possessed some Pokémon that she chose except forGolbat who was apparently unaffected. She was about to get away with the items butBrock's newly evolved Crobat sliced the Dig-a-tron and separated her from the mask and scepter.

InDues and Don'ts, the Team Rocket trio learned they'd been disbanded from Team Rocket for unpaid dues. However, aRocket Scout informed them she could get them back in if they prove themselves to her by defeating Ash and his friends. The three begged to borrow herDelibird to help them, which she agreed to. Even with the support, they failed to complete the mission, but were reinstated anyway due to a labor shortage. Their signing bonus helped pay off their bills, but the Rocket Scout informed them Delibird would be following them to make sure it didn't happen again. ByCan't Beat the Heat!, Delibird stopped following them, satisfied with the money they earned during theSilver Conference.

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

Starting inHoenn, Jessie became aPokémon Coordinator, entering every Contest that she could. She frequently made it to the battle round, but usually lost there. Although Jessie entered mostly every Contest in Hoenn and Kanto, she lost in all of them, whether it was the first match of the Battle Rounds or the finals.

In the Kanto Contests, Jessiedisguised herself asJessebella (Japanese:ムサぴょんMusa-pyon) wearing a red dress and glasses. Eventually, Ash, Brock, May, and Max found out her true identity in the last Contest.

InA Scare to Remember!, Pikachu developed amnesia after an attack by Team Rocket and their machine. Team Rocket took advantage of this and tricked Pikachu into joining them. Trying to get Pikachu back, Ash jumped on their balloon, and the trio ordered Pikachu to hit Ash with Thunderbolt. This caused them to get blasted off, while Ash and Pikachu fell into a river. As Ash protected him, Pikachu managed to regain his memory and got rid of Team Rocket once again.

During theKanto Grand Festival, Jessie dressed up asJessadia (Japanese:プリティ・ムサリンPretty Musalin) and wore glasses, long white socks, a yellow and orange dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She worked there as an announcer andLilian Meridian's assistant; Lilian herself said she did not really like Jessadia's style, but recognized her talent.

InOff the Unbeaten Path, Jessie enteredPotpourri Island'sPokémon Orienteering withMeowth as her partner Pokémon. The duo had trouble finding the checkpoints and decided to drop out of the competition. They planned on lettingJames and hisMime Jr. collect the five stamps, thinking James would share the sample offruit prize with them. To assure James's victory, they dug several pitfall traps throughout the island so as to slow down the other contestants. When James was declared the winner, Jessie was certain she would get to eat some fruits. However, James was more interested in the Pokémon Teamwork Medal and he agreed to donate the fruits afterNurse Joy asked him to, much to Jessie's disappointment.

Jessie's odd Contest style caught the eye ofHarley, and they quickly struck up a friendship of sorts during theMulberry City Contest. Harley was determined to sabotage May's chances of getting her finalRibbon, and he subsequently paired up with Team Rocket, even giving Jessie his Pokémon to borrow for the event. Jessie lost to May in the final round, much to Harley's annoyance. Later, inThe Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!, Harley suggested that Jessie should accompany him toJohto to compete in Contests. She refused his offer, admitting that she was already committed to Team Rocket.

InThe Ole' Berate and Switch!, following a failed attempt of getting Ash's Pikachu, Jessie separated with James and Meowth, and met up withButch. Jessie went back with James and Meowth after Team Rocket were caught stealing a load of Poké Balls.

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

InTwo Degrees of Separation!,Giovanni approved the trio's plans to set up Team Rocket inSinnoh.

InMounting a Coordinator Assault!, Jessie disguised herself asJessilina (Japanese:キャンディ・ムサリーナCandy Musalina) in order to compete in theJubilife City Pokémon Contest. When the results were announced inArrival of a Rival!, it was shown that Jessie's performance had secured her a place in the second round, where she lost toZoey and herGlameow in the finals. The disguise adopted for the Jubilife Contest was used in every official Pokémon Contest Jessie entered in the Sinnohregion and theHearthome Collection as well. As Jessilina, she would form an unfriendlyrivalry withDawn throughout the entire Sinnoh Contest circuit.

After rescuingAsh's Aipom from falling off a cliff inBorrowing on Bad Faith!, Jessie managed to persuadeAsh to let her borrow Aipom for an informal Pokémon Contest that would be held in a small village as part of a festival. Jessie then decided to practice for the competition, asking Aipom to show off all of her moves. Jessie'straining session paid off as she easily advanced to the second round of the Contest, where she facedDawn and herPachirisu. During their battle, Jessie used aContest combination to drop Dawn's points before commanding Aipom to attack Pachirisu withFocus Punch, which caused theElectric-type Pokémon tofaint, thereby eliminating Dawn from the Contest and giving Jessie her first Contest victory.

The trio were hired byTeam Galactic to steal theAdamant Orb from theEterna Historical Museum inA Secret Sphere of Influence!. Team Rocket successfully made the theft, framingNando in the process, but ultimately failed to get away with the orb.

InTeam Shocker!, Jessie entered theSolaceon Contest with herDustox. Their performance left the three judges,Raoul Contesta,Mr. Sukizo, andNurse Joy, very impressed asCoordinator andPokémon were in sync with one another. This secured Jessie a place in theBattle Round, where she quickly made her way to the finals. There, Jessie facedKenny and hisPrinplup using her Dustox. She was able to win the battle by taking advantage of Kenny's techniques, having used Prinplup'smoves to favor her Dustox. This victory gave Jessie her firstContest Ribbon.

InSleight of Sand!, the trio argued with Butch and Cassidy over who would steal aHippowdon. Their constant bickering made it easy for Ash and his friends to save the Heavyweight Pokémon.

InCrossing Paths, Jessie was in the middle of a training session on the shores of a mountain lake when her Dustox got distracted and flew away. Jessie hurried after her and found her with aShiny Dustox belonging to aTrainer namedAustin. Austin told Jessie about the Dustox Crossing, a time when Dustox gather at the lake and pair up before flying overMt. Coronet towards theDustox Flower Field, where they start their families. After hearing this and noticing her Dustox's crush on Austin's Dustox, Jessie remembered her school days when she had a crush on a boy calledAstin. One day, Astin decided to leave town to become aTop Coordinator and invited Jessie to come along with him, but Jessie declined the offer. To this day, Jessie wonders how her life would have turned out if she had joined Astin in hisjourney. Jessie was determined to prevent Dustox from making the same mistake, and decided torelease her so she could take part in the Crossing with Austin's Dustox. When Dustox refused to leave, Jessie broke Dustox'sPoké Ball, telling Dustox to go follow its heart. As Dustox fluttered off with her partner, Jessie remembered their time together before calling out to Dustox telling her to go fall in love with all of her heart and to do it for the both of them.

InOur Cup Runneth Over!, Jessie announced her plans to enter theWallace Cup and said she would dedicate her performance to her released Dustox. She also decided to go looking forWallace, thinking that meeting Wallace would increase her chances of winning the special Pokémon Contest bearing his name. After finding him, she showed him herSeviper dressed up as aMilotic and asked him to award her some bonus points during the Wallace Cup. She later watched as Wallace delivered a performance with his Milotic, and asked him to teachAqua Ring to her Seviper, but Wallace said Seviper could not learn the move.

When Jessie entered the Wallace Cup inStaging a Heroes' Welcome!, she was counting on James andMeowth to make sure she would be the one taking theAqua Ribbon home, as she believed they had plotted a scheme for her to win the Solaceon Town Pokémon Contest. However, they admitted to her that they did not use any cheats back then and told her that she won the Solaceon Ribbon all by herself thanks to her skills as a Pokémon Coordinator. Later, Jessie usedWobbuffet in the first round of the Wallace Cup. She started the performance by running towards Wobbuffet while he ran at her usingCounter. When the two collided in the middle of the stage, Jessie was sent flying in the air. She then finished it off by landing on top of Wobbuffet's head, but failed to impress the panel of judges. For this reason, Jessie didn't make it past the Performance Stage. Jessie then reappeared in the Wallace Cup in her Contest announcer persona "Jessadia", interviewing Coordinators backstage.

InShield with a Twist!, Jessie found out a Pokémon Contest would be held inMajolica Town and decided to participate. After advancing to the second round, where she managed to defeat all of her opponents, Jessie won the prestigious Majolica Ribbon, her second Contest Ribbon overall.

InDressed for Jess Success!, Jessie was determined to win her third Contest Ribbon. However, she was sick and unable to take part in theLilypad Contest, so she persuaded James to go dressed as Jessilina and compete in her place. She watched the whole competition on television, in which James managed to defeatDawn in the semifinals.

Jessie competed against several Coordinators in theNeighborly Town Pokémon Contest inTeaching the Student Teacher!. She made it through the Performance Stage and managed to defeat each one of her opponents in the Battle Stage, winning the event with the help of her Seviper and earning the Neighborly Ribbon, her fourth Contest Ribbon overall.

InDawn of a Royal Day!, Jessie entered theArrowroot Contest hoping to win her fifth and final Ribbon. Not knowing that Dawn andPrincess Salvia had switched places for the day, she was puzzled when she saw Dawn backstage, as Dawn had already completed her requirement to compete in theGrand Festival. During the first round, she delivered a performance that assured her progression to the Battle Stage. There, she quickly made her way to the finals, where she found herself up against a disguised Salvia. Using her Seviper againstSalvia's Togekiss, Salvia was able to make a comeback after hearing some encouraging words from the real Dawn, defeating Jessie and earning the Arrowroot Ribbon. Later, Salvia approached Jessie backstage and gave her the Contest Ribbon as a token of gratitude for their battle in the finals. Jessie was confused and furious for receiving what she called a pity Ribbon. She was about to throw away the Ribbon but James convinced her to keep it so she could take part in the Grand Festival; as she had obtained her fifth Contest Ribbon fair and square, she was now qualified to compete.

Jessie entered theSinnoh Grand Festival inLast Call — First Round!. When the results were announced, it was revealed that Jessie was among the 32 Coordinators advancing to theContest Battles. InOpposites Interact!, she defeated her first opponent in the Battle Stage with the help of her Yanmega and Seviper. After advancing to the semifinals of the competition inComing Full-Festival Circle!, she used her Seviper and Carnivine to face off against Dawn and herBuneary andCyndaquil. Despite her efforts, she ended up losing the battle.

After her loss to Dawn, Jessie got furious as her dream of becomingTop Coordinator was destroyed. Regardless, she told Dawn that since she had been defeated by her, she wouldn't forgive her for as long as she lived if Dawn didn't end up as Top Coordinator, thus showing that Jessie was rooting for Dawn despite the two beingrivals. When Dawn lost toZoey in the finals of theGrand Festival inA Grand Fight for Winning!, Jessie was enraged and decided she was done withPokémon Contests. She then discarded her Jessilina costume before storming away. None of the main characters ever learned that Jessie and Jessilina were the same person.

Pokémon the Series: Black & White

InPokémon the Series: Black & White, Jessie, James, and Meowth were sent to theUnova region under orders from Giovanni after they were promoted inMemories are Made of Bliss!. Now wearing black uniforms instead of their previous white ones, Jessie and James, along with Meowth, followed various missions given to them by Giovanni through other people. To prevent them from getting too much attention, Giovanni did not allow their other Pokémon to be sent to them, only making them use Pokémon native to Unova. Unbeknownst to the two, Giovanni was not certain that they would be successful; however, he sees that their presence in the region will forceTeam Plasma to reveal themselves.

The trio completed multiple missions for Giovanni in the early episodes of this series, with their first mission coming inTriple Leaders, Team Threats!. After arriving inStriaton City, Giovanni ordered them to visit a former laboratory located at the nearbyDreamyard, where they were tasked to take control of the area's mysterious ‘Future Energy'.They arrive and assemble a machine to collect data to be sent back to headquarters, though the machine ended up alerting Ash, his friends, andOfficer Jenny of their plan. The machine is destroyed, but not before they transmitted the data back to HQ for analysis.

InThe Bloom Is On Axew!, Giovanni instructed the trio to head to theDesert Resort and meet up with another Team Rocket agent to investigate ameteorite fragment located there.Upon arriving at the meetup location, the trio were surrounded by the police. As Officer Jenny prepared to arrest them, the agent-Pierce-arrived and rescued them. As they escaped, Pierce handed a briefcase to James with vital information.

InA Night in the Nacrene City Museum!, the trio was given a mission to break into theNacrene Museum and swap out a fake meteorite with the real one, which they accomplished in thenext episode, andlater handed it off toDr. Zager.

InA Venipede Stampede!, they located the Meteonite in the Desert Resort. This would be their final mission from Giovanni, and after this they were advised to act on their own in the best interest of Team Rocket. The three decided to focus on what they do best-trying to capture Ash's Pikachu.

InStopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2,after destroying the shrines ofTornadus andThundurus, Team Rocket tried to capture the forces of nature, but were thwarted by Ash and his friends.

InA Restoration Confrontation! Part 1, the trio were given a mission by Dr. Zager to obtain aCover Fossil insideTwist Mountain, which would be used to open a time gate to steal countlessFossil Pokémon from the past. Once they stole one fromFerris, they retreated to Dr. Zager's helicopter. The Cover Fossil was successfully revived into aTirtouga, but it escaped from the group. Team Rocket chased it down-where it evolved into aCarracosta-and held it down in front of the Time Gate. As they were about to pass through the gate, Ash and his friends arrived to stop them. This, along with Carracosta from the past, forced Team Rocket to flee emptyhanded.

The trio reappeared inAn Epic Defense Force!, where they tried to capture aMeloetta for a future job: OperationTempest. The plan continued in All for the Love of Meloetta!, where they were able to injure Meloetta before it was found by Ash andCynthia. InMeloetta and the Undersea Temple!, the operation began in full, with the trio capturing Ash, Pikachu, and Meloetta and bringing them to theAbyssal Ruins.

Once there, Giovanni used Meloetta's song to summon theReveal Glass and the forces of nature. During the battle, Giovanni was possessed by the Reveal Glass, and Meowth, Jessie, and James jumped in and removed him from its influence. He then ordered a full retreat from the Unova region, with the trio joining him.

Along with James and Meowth, Jessie reappeared inNew Places... Familiar Faces!, returning to their original plan of catching Ash's Pikachu. They've also added new Pokémon to their team, with Jessie catching aFrillish sometime before meeting up with Ash and company. However, she is forced to give it and herWoobat away to Giovanni inThe Dream Continues! under the pretense that she captured them for him. She also regained Wobbuffet as part of her team in the episode.

InA Showcase Debut!, Jessie entered the Rookie ClassPokémon Showcase that was being held inCoumarine City. In the first round, she competed againstShauna andAlouette using her Pumpkaboo, which she dressed up as a scarecrow. Jessie however had misunderstood what she meant to do, as the point of the Showcase was to show off the Pokémon's beauty whereas she had chosen to make Pumpkaboo as scary as possible. As a result, she was the least voted Performer and thus was eliminated from the competition.

InA Fork in the Road! A Parting of the Ways!, Jessie and Wobbuffet got lost afterblasting off when trying to stealPikachu. As she and Wobbuffet searched forJames andMeowth they came across awild Gloom which Jessie tried to shoo away by shoving sand at it, but instead it usedStun Spore on her and Wobbuffet causing them to fall into a nearby river. Jessie and Wobbuffet were saved from drowning byDr. White and his female Wobbuffet. Dr. White took Jessie and Wobbuffet back to his clinic in order to recover. There, Jessie noticed the two Wobbuffet had a connection and started to fall in love with Dr. White. Later, after being found out by Ash and his friends, Jessie confided in them that she was done with Team Rocket. Unbeknownst to Jessie, James and Meowth were listening in on the conversation, but they didn't do anything to try and stop her. After realizing Dr. White didn't have feelings for her, and learning thatPumpkaboo,Inkay, and Meowth were captured by a Pokémon Hunter, Jessie decided to leave Wobbuffet behind and save her friends. As she was rescuing her friends, Wobbuffet came back to her and helped her. At the end of the episode, she was seen holding flowers that Dr. White gave her as a gift, but she decided to stick with her friends instead.

InPerforming with Fiery Charm!, Jessie attempted to earn her firstPrincess Key by competing in theDendemille Rookie Class Showcase. During the Theme Performance, she was seen baking somePoké Puffs for the judges along with Meowth and Wobbuffet. Meowth had heard whatflavors the judges' Pokémon preferred and told Jessie to give her an advantage. As a result, the three were able to advance to the Freestyle Performance. There, they delivered a performance that impressedDelilah and some other audience members. However, it was not enough to bring Jessie the victory.

InA Festival Trade! A Festival Farewell?, Jessie and her fellow Team Rocket members attended theGourgeist Festival, during which shedressed up as aMismagius. She met a man namedCount Pumpka who had aPumpkaboo that had fallen in love with Jessie's. Count Pumpka offered totrade hisMawile for Jessie's Pumpkaboo, and after hearing that Mawile couldMega Evolve, Jessie became very excited and a fight broke out between Jessie and Pumpkaboo. As a result of the fight Jessie agreed to the trade. As soon as Count Pumpka called Pumpkaboo out sheevolved, which caused Count Pumpka's Pumpkaboo to lose his interest in her. After remembering all the good times she had with Pumpkaboo Jessie wanted to trade the two Pokémon back, to which Count Pumpka agreed. During a blast off, which happened as a result of battling Ash and his friends, Jessie was huggingGourgeist the entire time, happy to have her back.

Jessie entered theCouriway Town Pokémon Showcase inA Dancing Debut!, where she succeeded in getting past the Theme Performance, which consisted of baking Poké Puffs while simultaneously delivering a performance, with the help of Meowth and Wobbuffet. During the Freestyle Performance, she performed a dance routine alongside her Gourgeist and Wobbuffet that excited the audience. When the round was over and the audience was asked to vote on the Performer who had performed the best, a majority voted for Jessie, who earned her first Princess Key fromMonsieur Pierre as a reward.

InParty Dancecapades!, Jessie and her team members decided to attend a dance party hosted byMonsieur Pierre. After seeing Serena and her friends go inside, Meowth noted that it would be a perfect chance to catch Pikachu. Jessie, however, decided to let go of these plans in favor of attending the dance party and decided on James being her date while Gourgeist decided Inkay to be hers. Later, she was seen flailing James during their dance. With the dance party over, Monsieur Pierre announced a Tag Battle and Miette and James were partnered against Ash and Serena. Despite James's chagrin, Jessie sternly told him to win the battle but he lost, leading to her and her Gourgeist eating from the table behind them out of frustration.

InAn Explosive Operation!, Jessie, James, and Meowth were first seen contacting Giovanni and informed them aboutTeam Flare anda powerful Pokémon which can exhibit various Formes. Intrigued, Giovanni assigned them with the task to catch thePokémon. As the trio searched for Squishy, they met up withanother Pokémon resembling Squishy but having a blue core and Team Flare scientistsAliana andMable. After James's Inkay successfully damaged the device which was used by Team Flare to catch Z2, Jessie sent out her Gourgeist to attackMable's Weavile andAliana's Druddigon withSeed Bomb which created smoke, successfully allowing Team Rocket to flee with Z2. She and her teammates were confronted once again by Team Flare but despite putting up a good fight, her Gourgeist ended up being knocked out. Later, she witnessed Z2 transform into its 50% Forme to fight against Team Flare's Pokémon and laterAlain's Charizard. When the Order Pokémon lost, she along with her teammates jumped in front of Z2 to rescue it from Team Flare but ended up being blasted off by Mable'sWeavile and Aliana'sDruddigon.

InMaster Class Is in Session!, having gained the two Princess Keys needed to enter the Master Class, she entered theGloire City Pokémon Showcase Master Class. In the first round, she performed againstNini andConcetta, where she dazzled the audience withShadow Ball from her Gourgeist. When the second part of the first round began, she chose to strike a series of poses with her Gourgeist whileNini and Concetta appealed to the audience, but later joined the appeals, commanding Shadow Ball from her Gourgeist which enveloped the stage in a lilac smoke. Due to her appeals, she managed to advance to the next round in which she participated with Meowth, and made it through to the top three semi-finalists. Jessilee seemed pleased when Monsieur Pierre announced the rules for the semi-final roundin the next episode, claiming she just has to do what she has been since doing. Despite putting up a good performance with Meowth and her Gourgeist, she was defeated, and despite her partners' fear, did not seem sad about it, instead being happy that Kalos could see her beauty. When the Master Class was over, she was seen walking throughGloire City rather silently, causing James, Meowth, Inkay and her Pokémon to worry and fear her wrath. However, she shrugged their fears and decided that she just wanted to give a feast to them, which shall be financed by James, for supporting her.

She along with her teammates and her Wobbuffet worked asMalva's assistants during theLumiose Conference fromA League of His Own! toDown to the Fiery Finish!, with the aim of earning money and capturing any strong Pokémon in theKalos League. However, they were not very pleased with their jobs and felt that they were over-working; despite this, they did not quit their jobs. InKalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!, they made it a point to steal the two finalists, Ash andAlain's, Pokémon after the battle, but could not execute their plan due to Team Flare wreaking havoc inLumiose City. When Malva decided to abandon the broadcasting and confrontLysandre inA Towering Takeover!, Jessie, asJessimurrow, took to narrating the calamity herself, until the broadcast was interrupted by Team Flare. InComing Apart at the Dreams!, she, in disguise of a news reporter, set out with her teammates,Serena,Mairin, andProfessor Sycamore towardsLysandre Labs in an attempt to take over the base and bring Team Flare down.

They reached the Lysandre Labs inThe Right Hero for the Right Job!, where a surprise attack fromCelosia's Drapion caused her, and her teammates, to be enraged enough to remove their disguises and take on Celosia andDrapion with her Gourgeist. Inthe next episode, she finally defeatedCelosia andMable with her Wobbuffet, and after theGiant Rock transformed into a Zygarde, fled the Lysandre Labs along with her teammates on their helicopter. She took to reporting the entire event surrounding the Rock as they followed it on the helicopter on its way towardsAnistar City, and like her teammates, was utterly surprised to see the sevenGym Leaders and Kalos ChampionDiantha arrive on the scene to deal with the Giant Rock. She later assisted Ash and Alain in infiltrating the Giant Rock by sending out her Gourgeist inForming a More Perfect Union! to fight the Megalith Zygarde. One of the roots, however, blasted her and her teammates out of the helicopter, but they were saved byDiantha's Gardevoir.

After the disaster, she and her teammates claimed sole credit for defeating Team Flare to Giovanni.

InThe First Day of the Rest of Your Life!, she and Gourgeist participated in an Exhibition Showcase held in Lumiose City, specifically planned to help the citizens recover from the gloom of the disaster by spreading happiness and excitement.

Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon

InLoading the Dex!, the trio arrived in theAlola region to obtain some rare Alolan Pokémon for Giovanni, as well as Ash's Pikachu, which they were surprised to find onMelemele Island. They had also left Inkay and Gourgeist behind at headquarters. They allied with aMimikyu, which hated Pikachu, but at the end of the episode, awild Bewear kidnapped Jessie and James. InFirst Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!, the Bewear looked after the trio, giving them food and shelter at its den. Jessie used James'sLuxury Ball to capture Mimikyu.

It was revealed inThe Sun, the Scare, the Secret Lair! that Jessie has a dislike for Giovanni's secretaryMatori, who regularly displays a contemptuous and condescending attitude towards the trio and acts as if she is their boss. Jessie in turn sees Matori as a rival figure and even calls her "four eyes".

InA Seasoned Search!, the trio completed their secret base in Bewear's den.

InA Team-on-Team Tussle!, the trio, upon learning aboutZ-Moves, began their search for aZ-Crystal. They discovered aDarkinium Z in a nest ofAlolan Rattata andRaticate, led by aTotem Raticate, and attempted to retrieve it. However, they were intercepted by members ofTeam Skull, also after the same Z-Crystal. Ultimately, after a clash with the other team, and with the Totem Pokémon, the trio obtained the Z-Crystal for themselves.

InPulling Out the Pokémon Base Pepper!, it was revealed that Jessie has a star-crush onOluolu, a famousPokémon Base player fromMelemele Island. In the episode, she, along with her teammates, played Pokémon Base against Ash andhis classmates in an effort to get Oluolu's autograph, but lost. In appreciation for a good game, Oluolu offered Jessie his autograph anyway; however, Bewear charged through and carried Team Rocket off before she could accept it.

InMimikyu Unmasked!, Jessie sent Mimikyu out to battle Ash during another attempt to steal Pikachu, but Team Rocket was quickly blasted off. This separated Mimikyu and its Trainer from James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet, while also ripping Mimikyu's rag in the process. Wearing a malasada bag, Mimikyu and its Trainer went shopping to find a replacement for its rag, but the Disguise Pokémon became irritated by Jessie's different outfits and stormed out of the store. Jessie convinced Mimikyu to hand over its rag to her for a repair. When she later opened another bag of malasadas, a trio ofMurkrow stole them, but also accidentally took Mimikyu's rag. Jessie, however, was able to retrieve it. When a larger flock of Murkrow returned for an attack, Mimikyu slid into its repaired rag and protected its Trainer from the flock. Later, Team Rocket returned to Ash for a rematch. Nevertheless, Mimikyu still ignored her commands to attackLycanroc and attacked Pikachu instead, leaving Team Rocket open to Lycanroc'sContinental Crush, sending them flying until Bewear arrived to take them to its den.

InAlola, Kanto!, Team Rocket was revealed to have flown to Kanto as per orders from the headquarters. At the airport, the trio noticed Misty and Brock meet up with Ash and his classmates, and after eavesdropping on the group's conversation, decided to steal Pokémon off ofProfessor Oak's Laboratory and present them to Giovanni. However, their attempt to steal the group's Pokémon was thwarted, and they were carried back to Alola by Bewear inWhen Regions Collide!.

Team Rocket having obtained a Z-Power Ring

InWhy Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?,James's Mareanie learnedKnock Off, meaning the trio finally had a move that worked with their Darkinium Z. They reported this to Giovanni and Matori, who informed them they needed a Z-Ring to use it. Giovanni told them to head toUla'ula Island to meetNanu, an old acquaintance of his who could help them out. They later arrived on the island and ran into aGengar-nicknamed Greedy Rapooh-who stole their Darkinium Z. They chased it down, with Mimikyu attacking it with Shadow Ball. Greedy Rapooh jumps from body to body possessing them; James used the distraction to retrieve the Darkinium Z. As the battle continued, Nanu arrived and gave the trio aZ-Power Ring. The Greedy Rapooh is then defeated with Mareanie'sBlack Hole Eclipse. Afterwards, Jessie was given aMimikium Z fromAcerola.

InA Battle Hand-Off!, Team Rocket acted as Ash's opponent during hisThrifty Megamart trial. Mimikyu battled Pikachu, and eventually Mimikyu usedLet's Snuggle Forever, with all of Team Rocket working together to provide the Z-Power. However, Pikachu was able to survive the Z-Move when he shielded himself with his newly learnedElectroweb. When Ash'sElectrium Z turned into aPikashunium Z, Pikachu was able to use10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt, which defeated Mimikyu.

InSpying for the Big Guy!, Giovanni informed the trio that he wanted them to send Bewear to him, as they had earlier stated they had caught her. They attempted to catch her before realizing it would be impossible, after which Matorni and her Meowth appeared demanding the Strong Arm Pokémon. They managed to stall by promising other strong Pokémon-namely those belonging to Ash and his friends andGrandpa Forest. Both attempts failed, and Matori settled for takingStufful. Unable to let their friend be taken, the trio tricked Matori into taking Meowth disguised as Stufful. When the ruse was discovered, Matori's Meowth attacked, which summoned Bewear to the rescue.

InBattle Royal 151!, Jessie entered theManalo Conference alongside James. Disguised asJessina (Japanese:ムサジーナMusasina), Jessie was among the 151 Trainers taking part in theBattle Royal preliminary round. Despite intending to keep herself hidden and avoid elimination until the battle was over, Mimikyu kept running around the battlefield, attacking any Pikachu it could find. By the end, Jessie was one of the 16 Trainers still standing at the end of the round. The match-ups for the next round revealed that she would be battling James.

InThe Battlefield of Truth and Love!, Jessie and Wobbuffet battled James and hisMareanie. Fully confident in her own victory, she allowed Wobbuffet to act however he pleased, which he did by repeatedly usingCounter andMirror Coat against Mareanie'sSpike Cannon andSludge Bomb. However, Mareanie ultimately managed to defeat Wobbuffet with a relentless Spike Cannon barrage after James gained a newfound resolve to win, thus eliminating Jessie from the competition.

InThank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!, Team Rocket received a call from HQ to return to headquarters. Unable to believe Mimikyu and Mareanie would be happy there, they released the two Pokémon before returning to Kanto.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

InIvysaur's Mysterious Tower!, Giovanni ordered Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet to steal strong and rare Pokémon for the organization and make Team Rocket known and feared across the world. He then promised to deliver them a new secret weapon meant to help them achieve these objectives: TheRocket Prize Master. They used it for the first time against Ash andGoh, receiving aTyranitar andGyarados. Despite the powerful Pokémon, they lost to Ash's Pikachu.

Sometime prior toKicking It from Here Into Tomorrow!, Team Rocket was revealed to have made a secret base inVermilion City.

InA Talent for Imitation!, Team Rocket encountered a movie-starDitto who'd run away due to its inability to properlyTransform and itsTrainer's short temper. Deciding to make Ditto a new member of Team Rocket, the group worked to teach Ditto to control its nerves and transform properly. After learning that Ditto was needed back, however, Team Rocket pretended they'd kidnapped Ditto to cover up the fact it ran away. The trio provoked Ash and Pikachu to blast them off, and with that Ditto was returned to the studio.

InA Little Rocket R & R!, Team Rocket was ordered to go on vacation to theResort Area inSinnoh. However, the reward was a ploy by Matori and her agents, who planned to steal many Pokémon from the Resort Area. After overhearing her insulting them, the four decided to get their revenge by helping Ash and Goh free the Pokémon. The subsequent battle quickly turned against Matori and her unit, and whenOfficer Jenny arrived, they retreated.

InSword and Shield: The Darkest Day!, the trio were sent toGalar on Giovanni's command. During the trip, theDarkest Day began, and the trio planned on using the opportunity to captureEternatus. The plan failed, however, when Meowth was hit by a beam ofDynamax energy, causing him toGigantamax. Unable to handle the energy, he began to attack his teammates. Heeventually regained control of himself and went to attack Eternatus withG-Max Gold Rush, but was robbed of hisDynamax energy and subsequently sentblasting off by the Gigantic Pokémon.

InThe Good, The Bad, and The Lucky!, Team Rocket met up with Cassidy, who was running a café in a small snowy village with herRaticate. James grew to like the place and was encouraged by the other to stay, which he agreed to. Jessie and Meowth later found Butch running a bakery in a quiet coastal village alongside a female Meowth. Meowth fell in love, and Jessie persuaded Meowth to stay with it. The two later reunited with her after getting kicked out and rejected.

InRadio Lulled the Mischievous Stars!, Team Rocket was ordered by Giovanni to recruit new members for Team Rocket. They figured radio was the best method, and as a result started a new late-night radio show. However, after their first episode, they discovered not a single person tuned in to listen. The second episode went no better, and as a result they gave the show a major overhaul. Through many changes, Team Rocket's radio program started to become more and more popular, but along the way they forgot about the goal of recruitment. They were later scolded by Giovanni for this, though they occasionally did the show for fun.

InTeam Rocket Expedition which stands by the evils of love and truth, Jessie briefly travels alongside James and Meowth to thePaldea region.

Team Rocket reuniting with all of their current Pokémon

InRocket Revengers!, Jessie, James, and Meowth reunited with their Pokémon that had been residing atTeam Rocket HQ. Realizing the potential of such a large group, the team hatched a scheme to isolate Ash's Pikachu and capture him. The trio waited at the end of the trap, where they ambushed an isolated Pikachu. Despite their efforts, however, Pikachu was able to evade capture, and a wildLatias that had been following Ash intervened and sent the evil groupblasting off. Upset over the failure, the trio decided it was time to go their separate ways.

InAsh and Latios, she returned to the headquarters and gained a job working in the cafeteria, though the work was harder than she imagined. Shelater snuck out to try and steal Pikachu once again, where she unexpectedly ran into James and Meowth, who had gotten the same idea. Tired of working at the cafeteria, the Team Rocket trio rekindled their friendship and decided to work together once more. They launched their attack, snatching Pikachu in a net and reciting their motto to celebrate their reunion.Ash's Pidgeot came to Ash and Pikachu's rescue, and Pikachu delivered the usual blast-off Thunderbolt. Despite failing once again, the Team Rocket trio were happy to be together again and vowed to never give up on chasing after Pikachu as a team as they disappeared into the distance.

Character

She has a long-standing bitter rivalry withCassidy, another member of Team Rocket. Beginning inPokémon the Series: Sun & Moon, she has a rivalry withMatori, Giovanni's secretary and an elite Team Rocket operative.

Jessie seems to have a special preference for snake-like Pokémon, owning both anArbok and aSeviper. InThe Ninja-Poké Showdown, she expressed a preference forPoison-type Pokémon in general, though severalBug-type andGhost-type Pokémon have since appeared on her team includingYanmega,Gourgeist, andMimikyu.

Jessie is prone to vanity and explosive anger. She values her appearance, and she can get furious when her face or hair is damaged, such as inThe Tower of Terror,Tracey Gets Bugged,Don't Touch That 'dile!,A Tail with a Twist,Maxxed Out!,A Meteoric Rise to Excellence!,One for the Goomy!, andGood Friends, Great Training!. When this happens, she may do things like beat up a Pokémon such asMeowth or herSeviper. Furthermore, Jessie goes into a violent outrage whenever someone insults her beauty by calling her old, such as in the episodeThe Battling Eevee Brothers whenMisty calls Jessie an "old hag" (Japanese:oba-san). She shares this trait with James, who hates being referred to as an old man. She is also angered (compared to her companions, who are usually depressed when they fail at something) when missions are either failed or botched, which is a regular thing. At times, her anger is also shown to scare James and Meowth, usually when they are expecting it or if she really loses her temper. This intense anger was demonstrated in the Indigo League, Orange Islands, and part of the Johto League story arcs. However, her anger tantrums have become less frequent and eruptive over the next story arcs.

While she is very incompetent when it comes to stealing Pokémon, Jessie eventually becomes a highly accomplished Performer and a Master Class semi-finalist. Indeed, after she loses to Serena, she is overjoyed by her steady progress, instead of going on her usual rants or crying like the others.

During her time inHoenn, Jessie revealed herself to have been a formerPokémon Coordinator and re-assumed this role throughout her time in the region. Still, almost every time, she performed terribly. Her skills significantly improved during her time inSinnoh, during which Jessie proved herself to be a talented Coordinator. Her skills and knowledge of Contests were further showcased inTeam Shocker!, where Jessie criticizedDawn's performance after herAmbipom's attack proved distracting. Jessie tended to showcase her relationships with her Pokémon. She was consistently noted for her unique style and enthusiasm, literally throwing herself into her performances and enduring attacks. Despite being defeated on many occasions, Jessie has nonetheless been able to win a few Contests on her own, including defeating Kenny in the finals of theSolaceon Contest and being praised byTop Coordinator Johanna for her winning performance in theNeighborly Contest.

Jessie's currentparty, excluding Wobbuffet

Pokémon

As with the standards set by the Team Rocket organization, Jessie initially started off with mainlyPoison-type Pokémon, but as the series continued onward, her team has diversified. Most of her other Pokémon tend to be unusual in appearance and don't usually fit the general image of "cute". However, she does display a desire to obtain Pokémon that are considered "adorable" when the opportunity presents itself, especially feminine Pokémon such asHappiny orSmoochum. She was also attracted to aWeavile inDuels of the Jungle!.

Occasionally, she manages to take control of some powerful Pokémon, but due to either inexperience or hubris, this often backfires and loses control of them. She doesn't appear to train her Pokémon that often. Instead, they are often used to fight againstAsh andhis friends. When she entersPokémon Contests, she tends to involve herself in her Pokémon's appeals.

I Choose You! trilogy

This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: Expansion of role in M20, full role in M21, M23, and JNS05

Jessie has appeared inI Choose You!, which is set in a different continuity fromPokémon the Series. She first appeared in disguise withJames andMeowth in a Pokémon Center, being wanted for stealing Pokémon. When a Trainer who had just battled anEntei hurried inside the Pokémon Center, Team Rocket eavesdropped on the conversation and decided to hunt for Entei themselves. While looking for Entei in the forest, they were blasted off by a ragingOnix.

InThe Power of Us, Team Rocket hid behind some bushes as Ash meets Margo. Meowth asks the team how they are going to steal Pikachu, and Jessie suggests starting a juice business, in effect making them rich. That day, before the catch race, Team Rocket is in the background selling Lum Berries. Later that evening, Team Rocket are trying to steal from Toren's lab. This is when Jessie reveals that she has "no idea" what moves and abilities are. Team Rocket is about to begin stealing when the Smeargle ink spills and Toren comes into the room to investigate so Team Rocket hides outside.

The next day while Toren is presenting his research, Harriet finds Team Rocket backstage and asks them who they are. Jessie starts saying the Team Rocket motto but Meowth interrupts them. James drops a smoke bomb and they run to the forest but while they are running Jessie thinks that she tossed the Effect Spore to Meowth but it turns out she didn't and she actually dropped it.

After the Effect Spore started spreading across the city, Team Rocket took their Lum Berry cart and went to the Pokémon Center. As they caught their breath, Toren was given permission to take all of their Lum Berries to stop the spread of and reverse the effects of the Effect Spore.
