Jimmy (Japanese:ジミーJimmy) is a recurring character who first appeared inJudgment Day!.

History

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

Jimmy considers himself a poor Trainer, having not won a single battle. He often felt he had bad luck, even though he actually had the opposite. Starting out with aSquirtle, he set out on ajourney of his own. He soon added anIvysaur to histeam after he accidentally dropped a sandwich. They then encountered aShinyMagikarp that fell out of Jimmy's shirt. Jimmytraded the Magikarp to a passerby without realizing its rarity and obtained aCharmeleon in return.

Afterwards, Jimmy went toCerulean City and helpedDaisy clean theCerulean Gym, a task that earned him aCascade Badge without having to battle for it. Sometime later, while Jimmy and his Pokémon were sleeping in a small fishing boat, the rope that was tying the boat to theLilycove City dock became undone, and the boat floated away into the ocean. By accident, they found themselves onBomba Island, and he decided to enroll in the island's Pokémon Battle Judge Training Institute.

Despite his efforts, Jimmy struggled to become areferee under ProfessorSerena. During a mock battle betweenAsh andBrock, Jimmy acted as the referee, though he proved to be particularly indecisive when it came to making rulings.

While mulling over Serena's advice that night,Team Rocket arrived with their mecha and stole Jimmy's Pokémon. He chased them and grabbed onto the mecha, though the trio continued to swat him away. Suddenly, his Wartortle evolved intoBlastoise, breaking itself free of its containment capsule in the process before blasting Team Rocket off. He then decided to continue his original goal of becoming a Trainer and to return to Lilycove City. The next day, he waved farewell to Ash and his friends when they left the island.
