They are [[James]]'s grandparents, who take care of one of the family's vacation cottages.

When James was still a child, he loved going to the vacation home to spend time with them. This was because Nanny and Pop-Pop didn't make him behave "properly", like his parents and many tutors did at home, and he also loved how the old couple treated sick Pokémon. | When James was still a child, he loved going to the vacation home to spend time with them.

Years later, Nanny and Pop-Pop encountered {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, who were concerned about {{an|May}}'s sick {{TP|May|Munchlax}}, and invited them to the mansion so they could treat the sick Pokémon. Soon after, James arrived at the mansion along with [[Jessie]], {{TRM}}, and his sick {{TP|James|Chimecho}}. Nanny and Pop-Pop were delighted to see James, but he worried that they would be disappointed in him if they found out he is a member of [[Team Rocket]]. As a cover story, he lied to them and convinced Jessie, Meowth and Ash's group to help him keep the secret. Jessie and Meowth pretend to be his secretary and manager, respectively, to explain why Meowth talks. James also pretends to be the president of a company, with their [[Team Rocket]] uniforms as the company's uniform. | Years later, Nanny and Pop-Pop encountered {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, who were concerned about {{an|May}}'s sick {{TP|May|Munchlax}}, and invited them to the mansion so they could treat the sick Pokémon.

James managed to keep the fact of his membership in Team Rocket hidden (despite Jessie and Meowth's attempts to steal food and Pokémon) from Nanny and Pop-Pop until the {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} they were taking care of let himself be {{pkmn2|caught}} by James. Nanny and Pop-Pop explained that it chose to do so because it thought James is a kind person. Hearing this, James decided to come clean and tell them the truth. They were not disappointed in him, however, saying that even though he was in an evil organization, James himself was still a kind person and were glad he had good friends. James parted with them, leaving his sick Chimecho in their care. | James managed to keep the fact of his membership in Team Rocket hidden (despite Jessie and Meowth's attempts to steal food and Pokémon) from Nanny and Pop-Pop until the {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} they were taking care of let himself be {{pkmn2|caught}} by James.
