====Kanto====

[[File:Officer Jenny.png|thumb|left|220px|Officer Jenny before the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]

Officer Jenny made her debut in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]''. She was seen at the beginning of the episode warning the citizens of [[Viridian City]] of [[Team Rocket trio|thieves in the area]] and to report suspicious-looking people immediately. Stopping {{Ash}}, who had his {{AP|Pikachu}} in his arms, she suspected him of being a thief, but once she saw his [[Pokédex]], she believed that he was a Pokémon Trainer, while also mentioning that three other Trainers had come through {{ci|Viridian}} that day. Using her motorcycle, she brought Ash to the Pokémon Center, and once Pikachu was in the hands of [[Nurse Joy]], she left. After {{TRT}} broke into the Pokémon Center, however, she made her way back, but appearing just in time to see the center exploding from a combination of Pikachu's {{m|Thunder Shock}} and {{TP|James|Koffing}}'s {{m|Smog}} attacks. She stayed and helped Nurse Joy through the morning, assuring her that Ash and Misty will have no trouble getting through the [[Viridian Forest]].

An Officer Jenny in [[HopHopHop Town]] in ''[[EP027|Hypno's Naptime]]'' investigates missing children as she placed posters of them for each one. She, along with Ash and {{ashfr}}, find the source of the sleep waves which were causing the children to wander off in the [[Pokémon Lover's Club]].

In ''[[EP034|The Kangaskhan Kid]]'', Officer Jenny worked as a ranger in a Pokémon Reservation Area. After Ash attempted to throw a Poké Ball at a ''Chansey'' near some bushes, Officer Jenny appeared from the bushes wearing a Chansey hat. Officer Jenny took Ash and his friends to a station in the reserve. After letting the group off with a warning, she discovered Team Rocket trying to steal some Kangaskhan in the reserve.

In ''[[EP054|The Case of the K-9 Caper!]]'', Officer Jenny was in her training facility where an officer disguised as a thief volunteered to help train the canine police unit. After Ash and his friends mistook the officer for an actual thief, Officer Jenny recruited them to her training unit. Officer Jenny began training the group at four in the morning, in which Ash struggled with the obstacle course. Team Rocket arrives in their van and mess things up using special gas that changes voices. They were able to subdue Officer Jenny using the Growlithe they controlled. But, after remembering the times it had with Officer Jenny, her Growlithe turned on Team Rocket, and the trio fled.

In ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]'', an Officer Jenny in [[Mandarin Island North]] noticed a bunch of Pokémon who disobeyed their Trainers. However, her {{p|Gastly}} was the only one who was unaffected by the problem, as Gastly was a [[Ghost (type)|Ghost-type]] Pokémon.

An Officer Jenny from [[Pinkan Island]] in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]'' was in charge of the pink Pokémon on the island.

In ''[[EP123|Spinarak Attack]]'', Officer Jenny used Spinarak in [[Catallia City]] after a crime from [[The Black Arachnid]] was stopped one hundred years ago.

[[Ash's Squirtle]] was loaned to an Officer Jenny who fights fires. It is the leader of a group of four other Squirtle known as the "[[Squirtle Squad]]", who serve as the local firefighting team. They returned with Officer Jenny in ''[[EP147|The Fire-ing Squad!]]'' where they participated in the [[Fire and Rescue Grand Prix]] where they went up against [[Team Wartortle]] and won. After the contest, Officer Jenny left with Ash's Squirtle.

In ''[[EP229|An EGG-sighting Adventure!]]'', Officer Jenny arrived in a Pokémon Center after [[Ash's Phanpy]] Egg disappeared. She claimed to be good at solving cases but got the suspects wrong.

==={{series|Advanced Generation}}===

In ''[[AG006|A Poached Ego!]]'', Officer Jenny was hunting down a Pokémon poacher named [[Rico]], who was illegally capturing {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. In the end, Rico was arrested after his cache of {{p|Ekans}} and {{p|Koffing}} were freed by Team Rocket.

In ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down]]'', Officer Jenny took care of a swarm of Gulpin that were eating all the food in a town.

In ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'', Officer Jenny was seen on board the S.S. St. Flower, a luxury cruise ship headed to [[Slateport City]] for the [[Hoenn]] [[Grand Festival]]. Ash and his friends helped her track down [[Brodie]] after he stole the [[Ribbon Cup]]. Brodie later disguised himself as another Officer Jenny, but Brock was able to recognize the true one.

==={{series|Diamond & Pearl}}===

In ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', an Officer Jenny from [[Sandgem Town]] helped escort Ash to [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab in his search to find Pikachu and Dawn. The same Jenny reappeared [[DP003|the next episode]], pleased that Ash was able to successfully find Pikachu.

In ''[[DP009|Setting the World on Its Buneary!]]'', an Officer Jenny from [[Jubilife City]] appeared, almost running over Pikachu, who could not see due to having his eyes covered by Ash's cap. Dawn initially presumed she was the same Jenny that the group encountered previously, before Brock explained how there are multiple Jennys, like with Nurse Joy. She then explained how a disguised Team Rocket had been stealing machine parts from a nearby factory, and later caught up to them, but was not able to arrest them before they ran away. This Officer Jenny is the sister of the Jenny from Sandgem Town.

In ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]'', an Officer Jenny acted as one of the judges of the [[Pokémon Dress-Up Contest]] along with [[Mr. Sukizo]] and Nurse Joy.

In ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'' an Officer Jenny from [[Eterna City]] was summoned to the [[Eterna Historical Museum]]. The Officer Jenny from Viridian City was also there too.

==={{series|Best Wishes}}===

[[File:Officer Jenny anime BW.png|thumb|250px|Officer Jenny in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]

In ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]'', an Officer Jenny arrived in [[Striaton City]] when Dream Mist shrouded the city. At the [[Dreamyard]], she discovered that the Team Rocket trio were responsible for the Dream Mist and questioned their appearance in Unova despite being Kanto-based. After Team Rocket got away using {{TP|Jessie|Woobat}}'s {{m|Gust}}, Officer Jenny went after them. Another Officer Jenny chased after Team Rocket in ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'' after hearing about the incident in the Dreamyard. However, Officer Jenny was unable to catch them as they escaped with the help of [[Pierce]].

[[Christie]] and [[Doyle]] helped out Officer Jenny to investigate missing Audino in ''[[BW035|Where Did You Go, Audino?]]''. Despite their efforts, [[Ash's Roggenrola]] was credited on helping out the most.

In ''[[BW045|Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief!]]'', after Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} were trapped in a dream created by [[Leon]]'s {{p|Beheeyem}}, Officer Jenny helped the group to escape the dream. They had to acknowledge that they were in the dream but since Meowth was still asleep, they were unable to get out. However, after Meowth {{m|Fury Swipes|fury swiped}} Leon, the group were able to escape the dream and Leon was then arrested by Officer Jenny.

==={{series|XY}}===

[[File:Officer Jenny anime XY.png|thumb|left|250px|Officer Jenny in the {{series|XY}}]]

In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', Officer Jenny and another police officer evacuated the [[Lumiose City]] area when a {{p|Garchomp}} was on a rampage.

In ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'', she and {{p|Manectric}} chased after a smuggler named [[Dolan]] as he was stealing a bunch of {{p|Scatterbug}} and {{p|Spewpa}}. One of the Scatterbug fell out of Dolan's car and when Ash took it to a Pokémon Center, she roped Ash as she thought he was working for Dolan until {{an|Clemont}} cleared the whole situation by saying that the group wanted to help her in stopping Dolan. Officer Jenny, Ash, and his friends work together to track the smuggler. As Ash went to an abandoned laboratory and battled Dolan, Officer Jenny appeared and arrested the smuggler. The group releases all of the Scatterbug and Spewpa from Dolan's laboratory.

In ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer!]]'', Officer Jenny went to investigate at a radio observatory after getting a report that strange things were going on there. In the observatory, she ran into a {{an|Malamar}} who hypnotized her into becoming its accomplice. As a result, she took on the role of '''Madame X''' (Japanese: '''マダムＸ''' ''Madame X''). Later, she went to a dark cave where Team Rocket were watching a video of {{AP|Pikachu}} using his moves. {{p|Malamar}} hypnotized the trio except for Meowth, and Madame X went looking for Ash and his friends, with Team Rocket in tow. She found them by a tree, and Malamar took Pikachu with them to the radio observatory. Malamar hypnotizes Pikachu, who was soon under Madame X's control. When Ash and Meowth arrived, Ash's friends became hypnotized by Malamar and the duo encounter Madame X in the observation chamber. She has Pikachu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on his own Trainer, but Ash withheld himself and got through to Pikachu. The Automatic Pikachu Retrieving Device that Clemont built earlier entered the observatory and crashes at Malamar. Officer Jenny went back to normal, and she and the gang went after Malamar, who led them to a room containing the system of great significance. Since everyone saw what Malamar was doing, it destroyed the mind-control device it was building before fleeing.

The Officer Jenny involved with the Malamar appeared in ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]''. She went to [[Grace Tower]] to investigate the evil Malamar's whereabouts. She again met up with Ash, his friends and Team Rocket, and asked both sides to call it a truce, even though Team Rocket were the enemies of Ash and his friends. When Malamar and its two fellow ones activated the crystals to distort the Pokémon world, Officer Jenny was about to conduct a plan to stop the crystals, but two of the evil Malamar caught her and the group. Officer Jenny was held by Malamar's {{m|Psychic}}, but was freed later on with the help of the good Malamar and {{p|Inkay}} from the forest. She sent out her {{TP|Officer Jenny|Manectric}} to prevent the crystals from working any further. After stopping the three evil Malamar's plan for the second time, she attempted to arrest them, but the antagonistic Malamar escaped by going into the merged crystals.

In ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness]]'', Officer Jenny was investigating a [[Dark Clembot|Clembot]] wreaking havoc in the [[Lumiose City]] warehouses. She mistook Clemont's [[Clembot]] as the culprit, to the point that she had to make an arrest in the [[Lumiose Gym]]. Later, when Clemont and [[Belmondo]] had their {{pkmn|battle}}, she attempted to arrest Belmondo, but Clemont wanted to finish the battle. Using {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}, Clemont was able to defeat Belmondo, and Belmondo was taken into custody, along with [[Dark Clembot]].

Officer Jenny appeared in ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'' inspecting a forest area with her Manectric along with a group of people. They were, however, forced to retreat due to an attack by large vines mutated by [[Team Flare]].

Officer Jenny received another redesign for the ''Sun & Moon'' series. She debuted in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', in which she informed the people of [[Melemele Island]] of a road closure due to fallen timber blocking the way, caused by {{alo|Rattata}} and {{p|Raticate}}. Later, she prepared to ambush the pests in a grocery store alongside Ash, Professor Kukui, Hala, and the {{DL|Totem Pokémon|Totem Gumshoos}} and its {{DL|Totem Pokémon|Ally Yungoos}}. After they chased away the Rattata and Raticate, Jenny asked an Ally Gumshoos to join her team, and it accepts.  

In the next episode, ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]'', she and Gumshoos visited Ash to give him a certificate as a recognition of his work. She then drives Ash to [[Iki Town]] for his [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against [[Hala]], but returns to her duties instead of staying to watch the trial.

The Officer Jenny from [[Akala Island]] first appeared in ''[[SM070|The Young Flame Strikes Back!]]''; she owned a {{p|Granbull}}. She showed up at the [[Paniola Ranch‎‎]] just in time to arrest [[Viren]] and [[Viren's henchmen|his henchmen]] when they threatened to tear down the ranch.

[[Ula'ula Island]]'s Officer Jenny first appeared in ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]''; she owned an {{p|Oricorio}}. She greeted [[Nanu]], who was preparing to take a nap.
