In addition to his voice work, James provided more than 700 episodes of the script for the animated series, shaping stories that define the generations of fans. From the first episodes to the last trips, James brought warmth, humor and unforgettable attraction to the Pokémon world. His talent gave life to some of our most loved characters, and his legacy will continue to reach the hearts of instructors everywhere.
James’s voice will always be a part of our adventure. Our thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends. ,
Carter recorded voice lines for anime’s more than 700 episodes, but retired from voice acting in 2023 after diagnosis of throat cancer.
The video ends at a poignant moment from the anime where Mewath and a Glamo are riding a boat while looking at the moon.
