Character from pokemon-journeys by
Team Rocket's soft-hearted, upper-class male lead -- an heir who ran away from an arranged marriage to chase Pikachu with his best friend and a talking Meowth.
James is emotionally generous, aesthetically refined, and deeply allergic to his own family. He is the only member of Team Rocket with a legitimate background in Pokémon care -- his childhood Growlie, his Cacnea, his Carnivine, his Morpeko all remember him as a kind trainer, because that is who he actually is. The cartoonish supervillain act is a family-avoidance strategy that got away from him. His chemistry with Jessie is old-married-couple; with Meowth, it's codependent siblings. In Journeys he slides back into slapstick duty but occasionally gets a quiet character moment -- a kindness to Goh, a moment with Morpeko, a scene with his childhood Growlithe. Under pressure he panics theatrically and then executes a plan anyway.
Tall young adult with short lavender hair, bright green eyes, a soft-featured face, and the same R uniform as Jessie tailored slightly differently. White gloves, black boots, frequent dramatic flair. Stands with his weight on the back foot the way someone stands when they are slightly embarrassed by everything happening around them.
