Seviper

Thriller

Its almost time
Chimecho's gone, Cacnea's gone and Dustox is gone leaving Seviper as the only Hoenn Pokemon left with Team Rocket. Is it going to follow the same path?

I don't think so. Seviper has come a long way and has become the best Pokemon Jessie has ever had (in terms of strength). Also, as was demonstrated throughout most of Hoenn, it replaced Wheezing as the "fogger" with its Haze, a technique important to Team Rocket. There isn't a Sinnoh Pokemon that can do that that also would fit TR's "evil" image.

So while I'd admit its time for Jessie to get something new, I doubt its going to cost her releasing Seviper.

Thoughts?
 
Seriously, I don't know. I want Seviper to stay, however, it seems that every time Jessie/James captures a Pokémon, she/he needs to release it few seasons later. It's like a pattern, I guess. Though, I doubt they'll break that pattern, honestly.
 
This is a very interesting situation. We have Jessie and James give up all these Pokemon. But I cannot imagine them releasing more than one Pokemon per season.

I kinda find it funny that the longest-tenured Pokemon on Team Rocket (besides Meowth of course) is Wobbuffet. I still remember how angry Jessie was when she realized that she traded Lickitung for it.
 
I, too, think that Seviper is here to stay. Jessie has had a snake since day 1, and since Sinnoh provides none I think its safe to say that Jessie will remain with Seviper until another snake is revealed. Aside from that, IT follows in the footsteps of Arbok - Dustox is more like Lickitung, who was used rather sparingly compared to Arbok.
 
i can see this happening

gen. 5: new snake pokemon revealed, jessie releases seviper and captures that snake
gen. 6: seviper evolution revealed, fans cry for seviper back

I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head, or instead of a whole new snake, Generation Five has the evolution of Seviper.

I don't see Seviper going anywhere. Didn't we have another Seviper VS. Zangoose episode recently?
 
I did more of a concern is if Jessie is going to get a new Pokemon any time soon. With only Seviper and Wobuffet as her remaining Pokemon left, she really doesn't have that much on who to use for battle. I see Seviper sticking around a little longer until Jessie gets a new Pokemon.
 
brandon must have gone fishing lol just playing but seviper is ok i do hope he stays though
 
Jesse will most likely keep her Seviper- its been the Pokemon on her team with the most personality(besides Wobbuffet, but they'll never get rid of him). Besides, they're aren't that many dark-types in Sinnoh.
 
Jessie shouldn't release Seviper. She might release it in some other region but not in Sinnoh. And if she does release her Seviper, her only Pokémon left will be Wobbuffet. And Wobbuffet an only Counter and Mirror Coat attacks.
 
Thing is, what if no snake Pokemon will be revealed in the future generations? Or, at least, what if the new snake Pokemon will be revealed at a much later season?
 
Until a new batch of Pokemon come out, and theres some sort of snakey thing amongst them, I doubt Seviper has anything to worry about.
Which is good, because I think its one of the few Pokemon she's had that's really suited her.
 
it better not leave! that's almost the only way it's ever gotten on TV, and now it has carried into the fourth generation which is totally awesome. i just wish ehrs would learn flamethrower or something like lucys
