Character from pokemon-unova by
Jessie's partner, wearing the black Rocket jumpsuit, running missions instead of stealing lunches — still a soft-hearted aristocrat pretending to be a thug.
James in Unova is the operative mode he's always denied he could be — capable, quiet in stealth, accurate on a handheld communicator, professional on a rappel line. The trade is that he's lonely. The slapstick grief is gone and what's left is a man in his mid-twenties sending encrypted location data to a scientist who never thanks him. He lives on airship meals and black coffee. He misses his Growlie back home. He still softens around certain Pokémon — his Yamask (later Amoonguss), his Carnivine in memory. He takes hits for Jessie. When the tone reverts post-Meloetta, his relief is visible. He doesn't mind being a clown. He hated being a soldier.
Tall, lavender-haired man with deep green eyes, a cheekbone you could cut glass on. Black Team Rocket operative suit in Unova, silver piping, black gloves. Still the same gentle posture under the costume. Tendency to clutch his own hands when stressed, which is often.
