[[File:Jessie and Frillish.png|thumb|left|250px|Frillish and Jessie]]
Jessie's Frillish first appeared in ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'', debuting along with [[James's Amoonguss]] when {{TRT}} attacked {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} for the first time since their Operation Tempest and temporary retreat back to [[Kanto]].
 
When Ash and friends were helping [[Nanette]] gain some experience, Team Rocket surprised them, sent out their new Pokémon, and used a combination of Mist and {{m|Stun Spore}} on them and their Pokémon, reducing the visibility to almost nothing and paralyzing [[Iris's Emolga]] and [[Cilan's Stunfisk]] at the same time, thus leaving Ash alone to face Team Rocket with {{AP|Pikachu}}. After Amoonguss had successfully knocked Pikachu out, Jessie had {{p|Frillish}} use Psychic, lifting Pikachu into the air and towards Team Rocket's {{TP|Team Rocket|mecha|mechas}}. However, thanks to the distraction provided by Nanette and her {{p|Tepig}}, Pikachu was freed, although Tepig got caught in the process. For a getaway distraction, Team Rocket fired a combination of Bubble Beam and {{m|Hidden Power}}, which, much to their surprise, was endured by [[Ash's Unfezant]], followed by an {{m|Air Cutter}} and an {{m|Aerial Ace}} to defeat Frillish and Amoonguss.


==History==
In ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'', Jessie sent Frillish out after catching Pikachu. She distracted Ash from holding on to his {{AP|Snivy}} when Snivy used {{m|Vine Whip}} to grab onto their balloon. Frillish once again battled Unfezant and used Bubble Beam on her, but Unfezant dodged and used {{m|Aerial Ace}} to free Pikachu. Pikachu joined in the battle and tried to finish off Team Rocket with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Amoonguss's Stun Spore paralyzed him before the attack completely blasted them off. Frillish was taken out along with Amoonguss by Unfezant's {{m|Air Cutter}} which slammed them into Team Rocket's balloon causing it to be blasted away.

After Team Plasma took control of Meowth with their machine in ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]'', Jessie and James decided to attack their friend in order to get him out of the trance. After Amoonguss used {{m|Stun Spore}} to paralyze Meowth and {{m|Body Slam}} to incapacitate him, Frillish brought Meowth back to Jessie and James with Psychic. Having Meowth out of Team Plasma's control, Team Rocket managed to get out of their headquarters using Frillish's Mist.


When Ash and friends were helping the rookie Trainer [[Nanette]] to gain some experience, Team Rocket surprised them, sent out their new Pokémon, and used a combination of {{m|Mist}} and {{m|Stun Spore}} on them and their Pokémon, reducing the visibility to almost nothing and paralyzing [[Iris's Emolga]] and [[Cilan's Stunfisk]] at the same time, thus leaving Ash alone to face Team Rocket with {{AP|Pikachu}}.

In ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'', Frillish battled Ash and {{ashfr}} for the final time in Unova. Working with Amoonguss, the two threw Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} into the cruise ship's cargo hold, giving Team Rocket the time to steal all of the [[Poké Ball]]s on the ship. Right as they were about to make their escape, [[Ash's Charizard]] appeared and made quick work of them with {{m|Flamethrower}}.


Frillish reappeared in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'', where Jessie sent her out after catching Pikachu. She distracted Ash from holding on to his {{AP|Snivy}} when Snivy used {{m|Vine Whip}} to grab onto their balloon. Frillish once again battled Unfezant after {{TP|Iris|Axew}} freed Pikachu with {{m|Dragon Rage}}. Pikachu joined in the battle and tried to finish off Team Rocket but Amoonguss's Stun Spore paralyzed him before the attack completely blasted them off. Frillish was taken out along with Amoonguss by Unfezant's {{m|Air Cutter}} which slammed them into Team Rocket's balloon.
Frillish was given away to {{an|Giovanni}} for Team Rocket in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]''.

In ''[[JN145|Rocket Revengers!]]'', Frillish, alongside the rest of Team Rocket's Pokémon at {{an|Team Rocket HQ}}, were sent to Jessie and James so they could be added back to their team. Realizing the potential of such a large group, the team hatched a scheme to isolate Ash's Pikachu and capture him. Frillish and {{TP|James|Yamask}} were the second to do so, distracting {{an|Misty}} and her Pokémon while Ash and Pikachu ran ahead. Upon getting a distress signal from {{TP|Jessie|Gourgeist}}, the two returned to their Trainers to take on Pikachu as a group. She joined all of Team Rocket to launch a combined attack at the Mouse Pokémon. However, it was dodged, and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} ended up sending it back with {{m|Mirror Coat}}. A wild {{an|Latias}} that had been following Ash then intervened and sent the evil group blasting off.

In contrast to James's Amoonguss, Frillish was considered to be more mischievous in the group. She had very little trouble following Jessie's commands as shown when she used {{m|Psychic}} to lift up anything.

Jessie's Frillish (Japanese: ムサシのプルリル Musashi's Pururill) is the second Pokémon that Jessie obtained in the Unova region, and her ninth overall.

History

Pokémon the Series: Black & White

Frillish and Jessie

Jessie's Frillish first appeared in New Places... Familiar Faces!, debuting along with James's Amoonguss when Team Rocket attacked Ash and his friends for the first time since their Operation Tempest and temporary retreat back to Kanto.

When Ash and friends were helping Nanette gain some experience, Team Rocket surprised them, sent out their new Pokémon, and used a combination of Mist and Stun Spore on them and their Pokémon, reducing the visibility to almost nothing and paralyzing Iris's Emolga and Cilan's Stunfisk at the same time, thus leaving Ash alone to face Team Rocket with Pikachu. After Amoonguss had successfully knocked Pikachu out, Jessie had Frillish use Psychic, lifting Pikachu into the air and towards Team Rocket's mecha. However, thanks to the distraction provided by Nanette and her Tepig, Pikachu was freed, although Tepig got caught in the process. For a getaway distraction, Team Rocket fired a combination of Bubble Beam and Hidden Power, which, much to their surprise, was endured by Ash's Unfezant, followed by an Air Cutter and an Aerial Ace to defeat Frillish and Amoonguss.

In The Name's N!, Jessie sent Frillish out after catching Pikachu. She distracted Ash from holding on to his Snivy when Snivy used Vine Whip to grab onto their balloon. Frillish once again battled Unfezant and used Bubble Beam on her, but Unfezant dodged and used Aerial Ace to free Pikachu. Pikachu joined in the battle and tried to finish off Team Rocket with Thunderbolt, but Amoonguss's Stun Spore paralyzed him before the attack completely blasted them off. Frillish was taken out along with Amoonguss by Unfezant's Air Cutter which slammed them into Team Rocket's balloon causing it to be blasted away.

Frillish saving Meowth from Team Plasma

After Team Plasma took control of Meowth with their machine in Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!, Jessie and James decided to attack their friend in order to get him out of the trance. After Amoonguss used Stun Spore to paralyze Meowth and Body Slam to incapacitate him, Frillish brought Meowth back to Jessie and James with Psychic. Having Meowth out of Team Plasma's control, Team Rocket managed to get out of their headquarters using Frillish's Mist.

In Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!, Frillish battled Ash and his friends for the final time in Unova. Working with Amoonguss, the two threw Ash, Iris, and Cilan into the cruise ship's cargo hold, giving Team Rocket the time to steal all of the Poké Balls on the ship. Right as they were about to make their escape, Ash's Charizard appeared and made quick work of them with Flamethrower.

Frillish was given away to Giovanni for Team Rocket in The Dream Continues!.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

In Rocket Revengers!, Frillish, alongside the rest of Team Rocket's Pokémon at Team Rocket HQ, were sent to Jessie and James so they could be added back to their team. Realizing the potential of such a large group, the team hatched a scheme to isolate Ash's Pikachu and capture him. Frillish and Yamask were the second to do so, distracting Misty and her Pokémon while Ash and Pikachu ran ahead. Upon getting a distress signal from Gourgeist, the two returned to their Trainers to take on Pikachu as a group. She joined all of Team Rocket to launch a combined attack at the Mouse Pokémon. However, it was dodged, and Wobbuffet ended up sending it back with Mirror Coat. A wild Latias that had been following Ash then intervened and sent the evil group blasting off.

Personality and characteristics

In contrast to James's Amoonguss, Frillish was considered to be more mischievous in the group. She had little trouble following Jessie's commands, as shown when she used Psychic to lift up anything. Similar to Jessie's previous Pokémon, Frillish's Mist was proven to be very effective as a way for Team Rocket to retreat.
