She has quite an unusual name. She explained to {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} that it was a combination of the first letters of the following {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}: {{p|Teddiursa}} "Te" (Japanese: ヒメグマ ''Himeguma'' "ヒ" ''"Hi"''), {{p|Mareep}} "ma" (Japanese: メリープ ''Merriep'' "メ" ''"me"''), and {{p|Cubone}} "cu" (Japanese: カラカラ ''Karakara'' "カ" ''"ka"'').

And she gave {{an|Brock}} and [[James]] their own combinatory nicknames to match their respective personalities.


Temacu is one of the few girls to fall in love with {{an|Brock}}. Brock caught her just before she tripped and fell into a fountain. Since that moment, she "knew" that she had to marry Brock and even started to imagine their future wedding. The feelings weren't mutual as Brock was unsure and confused.

However, Temacu's feelings for Brock didn't last long. {{TRT}} attacked [[Temacu's father|her father]]'s laboratory and captured what they thought was a Pokémon, but it was actually Temacu. As she tried to get out of the balloon, she nearly fell again, but [[James]] was there to catch her this time. This caused her to fall in love with James instead and now she wanted to marry him. Thinking that they could get their hands on the Pokémon at the lab through Temacu's infatuation with James, [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} forced him to play along, even if it meant that he had to marry her. James was not at all comfortable with this idea.

To accommodate the new plan, Team Rocket changed outfits and made up a story about James having saved Temacu from "attackers" to tell to her father. Brock was heartbroken after he found out that Temacu had fallen for James. Soon, {{an|Misty}} pulled off Jessie's disguise, exposing the trio and prompting them to run away. When they were trying to escape, Misty ordered her {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} to attack James with {{m|Water Gun}}. Temacu, worried for James's safety, jumped in front of the attack and then fainted.

Later, Temacu's father explained to Ash and his friends that she had become obsessed with marriage since her cousin's recent wedding. Temacu eventually woke up, only to fall in love with the first man she saw: her doctor, who had helped her to return her to her senses.
