(Japanese: シューティーのジャノビー Shooti's Janovy) is Shooti's very first Pokémon. He obtained it from Professor Araragi as a Snivy in the first episode of Best Wishes! and was shown to have evolved to a Janovy prior to BW005.
History
Janovy was first introduced as a Snivy in Professor Araragi's lab, where he was chosen by Shooti as his starter Pokémon in BW001. Shortly after obtaining him, Shooti challenged Ash to a Pokémon battle and used Snivy against Ash's Pikachu. As Pikachu was unable to use Electric attacks due to an encounter with Zekrom, Snivy was able to defeat him easily.
Prior to BW005, Janovy was shown to have already evolved from a Snivy, when Ash challenged Shooti to another Pokémon Battle in a Battle Club in BW010. It quickly defeated Ash's Pikachu again with its Cut. During the battle with Ash's Snivy, he was revealed to be male when he became infatuated with her after being hit by her Attract. As Janovy was unable to attack, he was quickly defeated by her.
