James's Mareanie (Japanese: コジロウのヒドイデ Kojirō's Hidoide) is the first Pokémon that James caught in the Alola region.

History

James and Mareanie

Mareanie first appeared in SM012, in which she encountered James when he was wearing a scuba diving helmet resembling a Corsola. She latched onto his helmet, mistaking it for a real Corsola, causing it to crack and flood with water. After James reunited with Team Rocket, Mareanie latched onto his head and injected him with poison which caused him to resemble a Mareanie, causing Mareanie to become smitten with James. Later, during a battle with Ash, Mareanie jumped in to help Team Rocket and launched a Spike Cannon towards Pikachu. With Mareanie's help, Team Rocket gained the upperhand against Ash, poisoning his Rowlet and dealing serious damage to Pikachu. As Jessie's Mimikyu was about to launch one final attack, Bewear suddenly appeared from the water and took Team Rocket away with her. After being dropped off at Bewear's den, James asked Mareanie to join his team, which she accepted. After catching her, James called her back out, and she affectionately latched onto his head, making him look like a Mareanie once more.

Personality and characteristics

Similar to a number of other Pokémon James has owned, such as Victreebel, Cacnea, and Carnivine, Mareanie is very fond of James and occasionally engulfs her Trainer's head in her ten spiked tentacles. The resulting poisoning causes James to look like a Mareanie. Mareanie has an attraction to James's appearance in this state, one of the reasons she decided to join him.
