Character Profile

Cassidy is the female half of the other Team Rocket group we have grown to know.  She also seems to be the leader of her group, just like Jessie is for hers.  She is very cold and calculating, even more so than her rival, but seems much more intelligent.  She has known Jessie for several years.  Jessie says that she used to follow her about as Cassidy was jealous of her beauty, but whatever the history, the two have grown to hate each other, viciously.  Cassidy, and her partner, Butch, have become two of Giovanni favourite Team Rocket members as they have had many more successful missions that Jessie and James.

This team have had run-ins with Ash & co. four times so far, and all these times they have ended up in jail by the end.  In the first episode, he and his partner set up a breeding centre, hoping to steal any Pokémon of value that came in, but, by accident, Ash, Misty, Brock, and Snap stumbled upon the plan.  Then they, apart from Misty, were arrested as Cassidy reported them as burglars.  But Misty proved that they were innocent and both Cassidy and Butch were put in jail ('The Breeding Center Secret').

Unfortunately, they were quickly bailed out, in person, by Giovanni, something he would never do for Jessie or James (they always have to dig themselves out, well, Mondo is supposed get them out of those situations ).  The second time, they used a parabolic satellite dish to enhance their Drowzee's hypnotic powers, and take over all of the Pokémon on one of the Orange Islands.  Pikachu, Togepi, Meowth, Weezing, Victreebel, Arbok and Lickitung were all caught up in the spell.  Team Rocket, Ash, Misty, Tracey, and one of the Officer Jennys teamed up to teach Cassidy and Butch a lesson ('Pikachu Re-volts').

Again, the got out of jail and came up with a new plan; to copy a Pokémon fortune telling book (badly) and tell trainers that it was lucky to own the Pokémon that matched their birthday.  The trainers then began to leave their Pokémon with the two, posing as an elderly couple, hoping that another trainer would bring in a Pokémon that matched their birthday that they could trade for.  However, the Pokémon left with them were to be sent to their boss.  When they found out about this, Ash and co. attempted to stop them, and the other Team Rocket tried to steal the Pokémon they had stolen.  Again, Butch and Cassidy are arrested ('The Fortune Hunters').

Recently they were part of the Team Rocket plan to kidnap a Lugia and it's child, but this plan was twarted by Ash, Misty, Brock, Pikachu and Richie ('The Mystery Is History', 'A Parent Trapped!' and 'A Promise is a Promise').
