[[Jessie]] has a [[Jessie's Wobbuffet|Wobbuffet]] that frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to shout its name or cause what Jessie considers to be trouble. It has appeared in every episode since its accidental capture in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''.
[[EP173]] featured a town in which everyone owned a Wobbuffet.

===[[Super Smash Brothers Melee]]===
When released from a Pokéball, Wobbuffet will stand on the stage in one place.  Anyone attacking or running into it will be damaged by its {{m|Counter}}, including the player who threw the Pokéball.
Wobbuffet is also a Pokéfloat.  It appears on its side and never fully reveals itself.  When it first appears, it will quickly return off-screen but will then come back and remain to allow for fighting to take place on top of it.

: Usually docile, a Wobbuffet strikes back ferociously if its black tail is attacked. It makes its lair in caves where it waits for nightfall.

=Name origin=
=Game Locations=
Wobbuffet's name is a combination of ''wobble'' and ''buffet'', meaning to strike repeatedly, possibly referring to its action of slapping its own forehead. Its Japanese name is homophonous with the interjection そうなんす ''sō na-n-su'', which roughly means "that's the way it is."  The German name means "Where to, exactly?"
==Side Games==
 
Its name, when paired with the Japanese name of its pre-evolution, {{p|Wynaut}}, ソーナノ ''Sohnano'', makes for a potential perpetual conversation of "that's the way it is" followed by "really?", and so on, as seen in [[Camp Pikachu]].
 
It is based on the late Japanese comedian 林家三平 ''Sanpei Hayashiya'', who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, そうなんす、奥さん ''sō na-n-su, okusan'', "That's the way it is, ma'am."
 
In addition, its form and available moves are based on a [[wp:punching bag|punching bag]]; that is, when it is hit, it bounces back.
