Jessie and Seviper

Jessie's Seviper (Japanese: ムサシのハブネーク Musashi's Habunake) was the first Pokémon caught by Jessie of Team Rocket during her travels through Hoenn, presumably as a replacement for her recently released Arbok. Its voice actress in Japanese is 佐藤智恵 Chie Satō, and its English voice actors are Michael Sinterniklaas (4kids Entertainment dub) and Bill Rogers (Pokemon USA/TAJ Productions dub). In the 4Kids English dub, some of the noises made by Satō are retained along with Sinterniklaas's voice. When PUSA and TAJ took over the dub, they stopped retaining Satō's voice.

Jessie caught Seviper in A Tail with a Twist after initially being impressed with its sneaky and aggressive demeanor, despite it biting off a large portion of her beloved hair. It had defeated Ash's Treecko earlier in the episode, which is why Jessie wanted it so much. One may not be sure as to whether it can be considered an actual capture or not, however, seeing as how after it bit off a chunk of her hair, Jessie mangled poor Seviper with her own two hands. She did throw a Poké Ball at it after that, though.

Seviper is Jessie's primary battling Pokémon, often seen battling alongside James's Cacnea in Hoenn and later James's Carnivine in Sinnoh. While shown to be fairly powerful before being caught by Jessie, after it fell into her command, it suffered the inevitable fate that all Team Rocket Pokémon face- defeat by Ash or another good character. In the episode Zig Zag Zangoose, Jessie and Seviper were determined to win a battle against Seviper's mortal enemy, a Zangoose belonging to the trainer Nicolai. She also entered it into a contest one time, but it failed miserably when Jessie told it to use attacks Seviper can't learn (such as Blaze Kick). We then see her apologizing to it, meaning she does care about Seviper.

It is also used as Team Rocket's escapist rogue to blanket the area in Haze, replacing James's Weezing's duty to steal innocent Pokémon under the shrouded premises.
