In the article it says that James hasn't achieved much, but in the Chronicles episode Training Daze he and Jessie were promoted and got their white uniforms. Jessie and James are higher up than a regular Team Rocket member. Should this be mentioned?

::::Just to inform you all. If you watch the episode Numero Uno Articuno you will get to know EXACTLY what color his hair is as he admits it himself.

::Considering Giovanni has ordered them to take over Isshu for him, I highly doubt they have been demoted. Also, the outfits are slightly different from grunt uniforms.

== Jame's Pokemon == | |||
It says James never fought before catching any of his Pokemon but in "heres looking at you elikid he goes into a flash back bout when he caught weepinbell. He used weezing to catch it. [[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 04:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Trivia Change/Removal? == | |||
Just noticed this trivia: "He is one of the only main characters to, after being given his first Pokémon, at one point not have any Pokémon on hand, if one doesn't count the events depicted in So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd. This was in A Poached Ego! during the brief moment after he released Weezing and before he caught Cacnea. He currently has no Pokémon with him. The other character was Ash briefly when he was traveling to Hoenn." | |||
Now, James currently has no pokemon, and despite the aforementioned Ash incident, Jessie was also without a pokemon. So, I'm thinking that this trivia should be changed to more of a "James is the only main character to, after being given his first Pokémon, not have any Pokémon on hand for more than X amount of episodes." Currently, it'd be 6. However, it just seems redundant for the trivia to remain the way it is, seeing as Jessie, Ash, AND James have been pokemon-less in the past now.

== James being in a lower position than Jessie == | |||
Is Jessie in a higher Team Rocket position than James? She has more Pokémon than James and has been recognized more in every type of media especially in Unova where she caught one Pokémon and James caught zero so far.

:I am moderately sure that Jessie, James, and Meowth are all Grunts, haven't caught myself up to the BW season though so I can't say for sure and if I recall correctly there were times when they weren't even Grunts as they had been kicked out a couple times. [[User:Felinoel|felinoel]] 02:57, 15 January 2011 (UTC) | |||
::Nope. they all work together. At times James is more dominant and at other times Jessie is. Also just because she has a Pokemon in BW before James doesn't give her higher authority either. I am sure James will catch one in a couple of episodes from now. [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 03:01, 15 January 2011 (UTC) | |||
== James' Nummel == | |||
According to [[AG053]] James had owned or at least befriended about 6 Nummel when he was younger. There's even a picture shown... I just dont know how to upload the picture. | |||
== Yamask. == | |||
Why isn't Yamask in the Pokemon or (on hand) section? and it looks like he captures a Amoongus in Series N but that will be kept to later. | |||
Same for Jessie and Woobat. and capturing of Frillish. Captures left to a later date obviously. [[User:Prinben|Prinben]] ([[User talk:Prinben|talk]]) 12:21, 7 December 2012 (UTC) | |||
:I looked at the article and noticed there is no "on hand" section instead there is [[James#Pok.C3.A9mon currently owned|currently owned]] section, which Yamask is in fact on. I guess that happened because having just one Pokémon in the hand section isn't good enough. I don't know, I think it would have been better as at hand section. [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|TheBlazikenMaster]] ([[User talk:TheBlazikenMaster|talk]]) 17:15, 7 December 2012 (UTC) | |||
::There's no on hand section because we don't know if Yamask is still with James or not due to the trio leaving Team Rocket.

== Carnivine and Nummel == | |||
James said he had these Pokemon as a child. hows that possible? if those Pokemon were not yet discovered when he was a kid. {{unsigned|Archerboy58}} | |||

== Age is 25? == | |||
On their respective pages, it says that Jessie and James are 25 as of M02. But I've looked around and haven't found any mention of their ages in relation to that movie. I doubt this is true, so I was wondering if anyone knew of any sources confirming this? [[User:The Tomboyish Mermaid|The Tomboyish Mermaid]] ([[User talk:The Tomboyish Mermaid|talk]]) 10:18, 23 August 2013 (UTC) | |||
:Just to avoid further confusion before anyone asks: the main discussion about their ages is in [[Talk:Jessie#Age is 25?|the talk page for Jessie]], as most of the clues we get are in relation to her. In the anime, James' age is said to be the same as Jessie's by extension. {{unsigned|Gabo 2oo}} | |||
== Still owns Cacnea? == | |||
I don't really think he still owns Cacnea. The narrator said that his story with Cacnea had come to an end - generally when a Pokemon is put into training there's some "for now" that implies they could come back. I'd say "given away" is more accurate. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 17:31, 14 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
:Hellooooo? | |||
:Also, here's another point - the specific reason for Gardenia taking Cacnea was to teach it Drain Punch, but even though we know it's learned Drain Punch from Barry, she still hasn't returned it. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 18:16, 22 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
::Ash also left Primeape to train with Anthony for the next P1 Grand Prix, and hasn't gotten him back yet. Yet Primeape is still considered Ash's in-training. Squirtle was sent back to Vermillion City to lead the Squirtle Squad, and he's still listed as in-training. Same thing goes for Cacnea. [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 18:20, 22 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
:::But there's evidence that they are still technically Ash's Pokemon. | |||
:::Primeape left for a very specific type of training that we don't know if it is yet completed. Also, the narrator stated he may come back, didn't he? | |||
:::Squirtle has actually been seen returning, like Gliscor and Charizard - the difference being that he went back to his "training" while Charizard and Gliscor went to the lab. | |||
:::The closest thing to Cacnea leaving for a specific reason was to learn Drain Punch, which, per Barry, he has learned, yet he's still with Gardenia being used full-time as her own gym Pokemon. And the narrator specifically said James and Cacnea's story has come to an end - that's a very definite "won't be coming back". And he hasn't been seen coming back, unlike Squirtle, Gliscor, or Charizard. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 20:59, 23 March 2016 (UTC) | |||

== Hair color == | |||
The infobox says James's hair is lavender... to me, at least, it's very clearly not lavender. I suggest changing it to periwinkle.

Lavender is a much more violet color than the color of James's hair, whereas periwinkle is more of a light blue, like James's hair. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celadonkey]] 20:16, 25 June 2018 (UTC) | |||
