Description An idea I had many many years ago, but never got around to finishing. I found the old sketch while looking through some things and immediately knew had to have another go at it. So, I redrew my first idea and added some things that weren't there originally. For example, James and Meowth were not present in my first sketch, neither was the close-up of the photograph Jessie is holding.

If you haven't listened to or even heard of 'The Birth of Mewtwo' CD Drama, then this drawing might be a little confusing, as the photograph is a reference from that, as it was what Miyamoto (Musashi/Jessie's mother) would carry around with her, until it got swept away in a big gust of wind during her mission to find Mew.

I think this idea works for whether you believe Jessie actually knew her mother and remembers her, or if you think she never knew her at all and was so young that she doesn't remember Miyamoto. Whatever you think is true, it would still be quite a shock to find an old photo of yourself in a place you've never been to before.
And who knows? Maybe seeing that would bring back some past memories that Jessie might have buried deeply into the back of her mind.

Also, in case anyone doesn't know, the Japanese on the back says Musashi (Jessie's Japanese name). I could've made it say 'Jessie' but I like the Japanese, and besides that is it's original source. ^_^

Oh, and I could resist more unnecessary touching, he he he. Gotta have some Rocketshipping in there somewhere.

Anyway, enjoy! ^^

Seriously, looking at this picture makes me tear up. The look on Jessie's face is perfect.

i wish i saw the actual pic, hey!!! We saw, little Jessie, Teen Jessie, and Present day Jessie. [link] yes, that's teenage Jessie, I learned she used to be nice as a teen (she wanted to be pokemon nurse). Funny, that she's nice 'til she hit adulthood (which is the jessie we know today). And yes, she's in her young teens here maybe 13 or 14. And Jessie isn't wearing make up yet, I bet she started wearing it in her late teens or maybe adulthood. Does anyone hsve a link to little jessie. I'm not a jessie fan, but, it touches me that teen Jessie has a warm heart and cares for all the poor pokemon out there. What do you think of her as a teen?

Yes, I remember that episode, as it is one of my favourites. I like it when they have episodes that show softer sides to Jessie and James. Unfortunately I do not have a link to younger Jessie, but I should imagine that if you did a google search or went looking on Youtube it wouldn't be too hard to find.

[link] yep look that's why jessie looks cuter than how she is now. I think her foster family's cafilick (not sure how to spell it) the clothes she's wearing looks like what the cafilick children wore to school.

I read a transcript of "The Birth of Mewtwo" and I have to admit I am a bit confused about Miyamoto? As far as the series/movies/CD dramas go, is she MIA or does Giovannia know where she is? I've heard conflicting information on such.

Shaami In reply to Alorxico [2011-07-06 17:41:56 +0000 UTC]

It's never been fully explained, so you can just assume she's MIA and no one really knows if she's dead or alive.

Okay, why did I not fav this before? I could have sworn I did when I first ran into it.

Miyamoto needs more attention, she was getting to be a good character before she was suddenly caught in that avalanche. It was one of the sadder moments, next to Ai's death. Oh, gosh, I can't listen to Tears, After the Cloudy Weather the same way again, it was used both times...

Shaami In reply to kokorotoyume [2010-12-28 16:59:48 +0000 UTC]

Quite right! There are so many people who do not know about Miyamoto. I wish she could at least have some sort of cameo in the anime...

Anyway, thank you for faving and commenting! Very much appreciated. ^__^

kokorotoyume In reply to Shaami [2010-12-30 19:38:33 +0000 UTC]

On a fan website, one of her theories was that Loreli--I mean Prisma from the Orange Islands MIGHT have been a disguised Miyamoto, or even this one woman from the Whirl Islands Cup, but it's just a theory.

But yeah, I wish that, too. Or at least have them in the Andes and for Jessie to find the picture. Heck, they should have had a TRIBUTE to her in the Articuno episodes in the Johto saga. I always felt that there was something missing in those episodes back then.

Have you noticed that Jessie, ever since her hair turned magenta has looked like her mother?

Shaami In reply to kokorotoyume [2011-01-03 14:26:50 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah! Those theories have been going around for years. I'm sure they'll be still going around for years to come. We may never know what exactly happened to Miyamoto, but it's fun to speculate. I always had this small hope that she survived and is still out there, somewhere.

Yes, Jessie does really look a lot more like her mother, since the change in colour. It makes more sense when you think of it like that.

kokorotoyume In reply to Shaami [2011-01-03 20:46:50 +0000 UTC]

I have a feeling she finally died shortly after the events of Mewtwo Strikes back. UNLESS Articuno found her, or Mew felt sorry for Miyamoto and saved her, she's been doomed from the start.

Shaami In reply to kokorotoyume [2011-01-05 11:56:19 +0000 UTC]

Well, anything is possible, but I doubt that the Pokemon anime will ever resolve that particular backstory. I'd be very surprised if Miyamoto ever got a mention. Still, you never know.

kokorotoyume In reply to Shaami [2011-01-06 13:33:00 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, it's been years, I think they already forgot her. It's like with the GS Ball plot device, it's been shelved. Though with the GS Ball, they shelved it because they were going to use Celebi in the fourth movie anyway. So maybe they were going to do that with Miyamoto, but then decided not to.

In the dub, when they're stuck in the mountains before Celadon City, Jessie never said her mom made food from snow, did she? I could have sworn they did that.

Shaami In reply to kokorotoyume [2011-01-10 20:05:49 +0000 UTC]

Ah yes, that whole GS Ball business was a waste of time.

In the dub, Jessie did say that her mother made snow food, but in the original Japanese she actually didn't say that woman was her mother. I think she said that she was one of her foster parents, or something like that.

DARN ORANGE ISLAND FILLER

Hence why they never showed her face. Interesting tidbit. I should take a look at that, I never did believe that part was telling the truth when I was younger. I always felt there was something missing. But of course, the dub always makes you feel awkward like that.

jezzypie is too strong...
but sometimes she would have to pour out her hidden feelings...
cause not all those times she would just cover her wounds and pretend she's okay.

I understand her.
