James is a member of Team Rocket, an evil team that tries to capture rare Pokémon. His trio's main goal is to steal Ash's Pikachu.

He is in a trio with Jessie and Meowth, who all attempt to steal Pikachu from Ash Ketchum. He is the softie of Team Rocket and is more or less a kindhearted and thoughtful person. He came from a very rich family and had many vacation homes and extra houses dotted around the Pokémon World. He is also Ash Ketchum's second archenemy next to Jessie.
