===Pre-series=== | |||
In ''[[DP153|The Treasure Is All Mine!]]'', [[James]] revealed that he met Jessebelle when they were both children, and he was interested in her and even wrote a love letter. Unfortunately, it wasn't until after the engagement was announced that James was exposed to her less than tolerable personality, starting with her insulting his beloved pet {{p|Growlithe}}, [[Growlie]]. | |||
===[[Original series]]=== | |||
Jessebelle first appeared in ''[[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]]'', where James returned to his parents' mansion in [[Kanto]] after receiving word that they had died. However, this was just a hoax to lure him into marrying Jessebelle; if he did marry her, he would receive his massive inheritance. However it soon became apparent that James was absolutely terrified of Jessebelle; he explained to [[Jessie]], {{MTR}}, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} how the marriage had been arranged when he and Jessebelle were young, and she had always been bossy. She would follow him around constantly tormenting him and telling him what to do and how he should do things. She was the main reason why James ran away from home. | Jessebelle first appeared in ''[[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]]'', where James returned to his parents' mansion in [[Kanto]] after receiving word that they had died.

Since he had not seen Jessebelle for years, James was shocked to discover that she had an almost [[Doppelgänger|identical appearance]] to [[Jessie]]. Jessebelle expelled Jessie, Meowth, and Ash's group from the home and chased James around the mansion's basement, threatening him with her {{p|Vileplume}}'s {{m|Stun Spore}} and a long whip. Eventually, Growlie broke out from its doghouse and came to rescue James from Jessebelle. The two had a Pokémon battle, with Growlie being victorious and Jessebelle running off the estate. | Since he had not seen Jessebelle for years, James was shocked to discover that she had an almost [[Doppelgänger|identical appearance]] to [[Jessie]].

James still appears to not have changed his feelings on Jessebelle, who was seen in another flashback in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]''. He was happy to visit his second summer home until he was told that Jessebelle was on her way there, and he, along with Jessie and Meowth, promptly left the premises. | |||
She reappeared in person in ''[[DP153|The Treasure Is All Mine!]]'', where she once again fiercely chased after her eternal runaway fiancé, much to his horror. James hoped a blast off courtesy of {{AP|Pikachu}} would allow him to escape, though Jessebelle was sent blasting off with him. | |||
==Character== | |||
Jessebelle is, as demonstrated by her debut appearance, extremely controlling and obsessive. She is a stuck-up, elitist woman with a dominatrix personality and a great affection for [[James]]. | |||
