Michele Knotz is an American voice actress, who joined the Pokémon series in Season 9 when The Pokémon Company International (TPCi) took over. In the series, she currently voices Jessie (succeeding Rachael Lillis) after Season 8 as well as May and Misty.
In Seasons 9 and 10, she was credited mistakenly with two L's in her name (Michelle Knotz), but in Season 11 onward, she was properly credited with the correct spelling.
