J

Hunter J is a ruthless and cruel Pokémon hunter, with interests only in money. She appeared in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, along with her henchmen who's primary means of transportation are advanced 6-wheeled trucks. Her technology includes an airship with lasers and invisibility, heat-sensing goggles, and a system consisting of a gun, a stone, and case to temporarily hold Pokémon for her clients. In the episode The Need of the Three, she and her henchmen are presumably killed when her ship is brought down by a powerful future sight attack from the legendary trio (which she had successfully captured). The fate of her and her crew is unknown.

Unlike other villians who have appeared in the series, she is one of the few ones who has not been defeated, her pokémon are in fact so powerful that not even Ash along Gary could defeat her, in fact in a episode in which Ash and Gary were determined to rescue a group of Shieldon captured by her, Gary said to Ash that since they had recovered the Shieldon it was enough. Later on Ash teamed with a "High Ranked" Pokémon Ranger and not even them could defeat her.

Hunter J has shown some interest in Ash's Pikachu, probably because everyone wants one and it seems pretty rare in the Anime. Also she likes Team Rockets Meowth, most likely because he can speak human Language. She managed to turn both Pikachu and Meowth into stone, but Ash and Friends managed to save all the pokemon curently turned into stone.

Pokémon

 * Salamence used for transport when she is on-field but also to brutally attack any interference with Hyper Beam and Flamethrower.


 * Drapion is on her Poké Ball. She seems to always rely on Drapion when battling Ash 1-on-1. Drapion could easily defeat Aipom and Turtwig at the same time. Arguably her most powerful pokémon, along Salamence.


 * Ariados never seen in battle, but rather using Spider Web to keep her foes away.
