His main goal was to become a strong [[Pokémon Trainer]] so that he could protect the kids in [[New Bark Town]], his home town. He also has a [[QuestShipping|crush]] on {{jo|Marina}} which appears to be mutual. Both of them participated in the [[Silver Conference]] a full year before [[Vincent]] did.

* Much like {{Ash}} is based on {{ga|Red}}, Jimmy is based on {{ga|Ethan}}.
* Much like {{Ash}} is based on {{ga|Red}}, Jimmy is based on {{ga|Ethan}}. However, a separate character made a cameo in the beginning of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', battling against Ash with a {{p|Donphan}}. Unlike Jimmy, that character wears Ethan's updated clothes from {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver|s}}, and is indeed referred to as "Hibiki" (Ethan's Japanese name) in the art gallery feature of the Japanese DVD.  
* When Vincent appeared in the [[Silver Conference]] (known then as Jackson in the dub), Marina and Jimmy were referred to "Dani and Yoshi" respectively, leading many to believe that "Yoshi" was the official English name for Jimmy, and "Dani" was the official English name for Marina. Whether this was the original intention remains unknown. However, in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', they're identified as Jimmy and Marina.

* Jimmy's English name may come directly from Pokémon Gold and Silver. There is a minor Trainer named "Kenta" in the Japanese version whose name was localized as "Jimmy" in the English translation - a [[Youngster]] on {{rt|3|Kanto}} with a {{p|Raticate}} and {{p|Arbok}}. The dubbers may have mistaken this character for an unrelated anime character. The same thing happened to Vincent.

* Jimmy is the only anime character based on a player character who has met the anime counterpart to his counterpart's female counterpart, as he is good friends with {{ga|Kris}}'s counterpart, Marina. Despite this, he is not shown to have met {{an|Lyra}}, who is based on Ethan's Generation IV counterpart.
