Jessie (also known as Musashi) is a recurring villain from the Pokémon anime.
Bio[edit | edit source]
As one third of the unholy trinity of Team Rocket (alongside James and Meowth), Jessie acts as the leader to a hilariously inept squad of gang-stalkers that constantly try to pry a yellow rodent from the arms of a perpetual twelve-year-old. While their kidnapping plans often are highly elaborate (and/or defy all forms of common sense), they invariably end up getting launched into the stratosphere.
Jessie herself wanted to become a Pokémon nurse, but ended up enrolling with a school that was meant for actual Pokémon nurses (i.e. Chanseys) instead of humans. How she didn't notice this until her failed graduation date is a mystery for the ages, but as much as the anime flashbacks try to portray her as a victim-turned-villain, Jessie still ends up being a glorified, narcisstic comic relief.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Jessie first appeared in 8chanmania LXXXII, where she and James acted as the managers of Meowth. Amusingly, they only joined the mania for its prize money after 'Operation Get-Meowth-A-Gigantamax-Crystal-So-That-He-Can-Become-Longcat' failed to find the appropriate funding from their boss. Even more amusingly, Jessie and James intentionally put their bets on Meowth getting floored by Wario, and left the mania with just enough money to pay the resulting vet bills.
Her sole personal stint in the ring was during 8chanmania XCVI, where she tried to take on Clyde of the Pac-Man Girls in the hopes of winning enough money to just buy a certain electric rat. Clydes's comment on her cheap clothes looked didn't delight her in the slightest, but Jessie ended up holding the chair anyhow.
