Wobbuffet originally belonged to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named {{OBP|Benny|EP146}}. In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', Benny was searching for someone to trade Wobbuffet with for a stronger Pokémon at the [[Pokémon Swap Meet]] in [[Palmpona]]. He was not successful at first, though a Trainer with a {{p|Stantler}} seemed to like his offer, but then bailed for a {{p|Hoothoot}} at the last minute. Jessie's Poké Ball containing her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} then accidentally fell into the machine instead when she crashed into it. Unbeknownst to her, Lickitung got swapped for Wobbuffet. | |||

Later, in ''Tricks of the Trade'', after the trade had commenced, Jessie wanted to send out her Lickitung to battle {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. Much to her surprise, Wobbuffet appeared instead. [[James]] then immediately looked up his moves for Jessie. Even though Wobbuffet had no offensive attacks, he managed to counter {{AP|Chikorita}}'s attacks back to her. Nevertheless, Wobbuffet was still blasted off along with the [[Team Rocket trio]] by {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunderbolt}}. | |||
Ever since ''[[EP149|Tunnel Vision]]'', Wobbuffet had his place in the {{motto|Team Rocket motto}}, first before {{MTR}} (which usually left him very upset), and some episodes later, right after Meowth. He could often be heard crying out subsequent to the "Team Rocket is blasting off again!" line, even if he was not out of his Poké Ball when the team was sent blasting off. Wobbuffet was thus somewhat a fourth team member. | |||
One time, in ''[[EP171|Power Play!]]'', Wobbuffet popped out of his Poké Ball and redirected Meowth's attack back to himself. This gave Jessie the idea of building a Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet, which would counter any attack back to the user similar to Wobbuffet's {{m|Counter}}. | |||

Jessie's Wobbuffet popped out of his Poké Ball much to the villagers' excitement. The [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers]] then showed up to attack the Wobbuffet and Jessie sent out her own Wobbuffet to battle them. Jessie's single-handedly took out the Wobbuffet Festival crashers' Pokémon with the use of Counter and Mirror Coat. | ||

Mini-Dit {{m|transform}}ed into Wobbuffet and used the same moveset to battle Wobbuffet and Arbok. As a result, Wobbuffet ended up losing to his miniature counterpart. | ||
In ''[[EP192|The Wayward Wobbuffet]]'', Wobbuffet was tasked with guarding the Poké Pod containing Ash's Pikachu. During the chase to get the Pod, Wobbuffet, along with the Pod and the key to it, were separated from Jessie and went on an action-packed adventure. He soon bumped into a thief named [[Goneff]], who was not happy with Wobbuffet bumping into his vehicle and took Wobbuffet hostage. Team Rocket then dug a hole and headed to the warehouse Goneff was hiding in to rescue Wobbuffet. Ash and his {{AP|Totodile}} went with them only for Totodile to get badly hurt by {{p|Golem}}. When Golem was about to finish off Totodile, Wobbuffet jumped in the way and sent Golem flying back to its Trainer. Ash was then able to get the Poké Pod back but not the key, as Wobbuffet still had it as he flew away along with the Team Rocket trio on the Wobbuffet-shaped balloon. Ash sent out {{AP|Noctowl}} to get the key from Wobbuffet and Pikachu was freed from the Poké Pod. | In ''[[EP192|The Wayward Wobbuffet]]'', Wobbuffet was tasked with guarding the Poké Pod containing Ash's Pikachu.
