He could often be heard crying out subsequent to the "Team Rocket is blasting off again!" line, even if he was not out of his Poké Ball when the team was sent blasting off. Wobbuffet was thus somewhat a fourth team member.
One time, in Power Play!, Wobbuffet popped out of his Poké Ball and redirected Meowth's attack back to himself. This gave Jessie the idea of building a Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet, which would counter any attack back to the user similar to Wobbuffet's .

When Golem was about to finish off Totodile, Wobbuffet jumped in the way and sent Golem flying back to its Trainer.

In Ring Masters, Wobbuffet was entered into the Sumo Conference, disguised as a facing off against a Trainer's . He was able to make quick work of his opponent with Counter, but was disqualified due to Shonosuke noticing the use of the move.

In Why? Wynaut!, Team Rocket devised a plan to steal Ash's Badges. Wobbuffet was handed the Badge case and ran ahead, and along the way he encountered a wild who also wanted the Badges.

======Kanto Battle Frontier======
Wobbuffet made his stage debut in the Battle Stage of the Saffron City Pokémon Contest in A Hurdle for Squirtle. Jessie planned for him to use the countering technique against Harley's . However, this backfired, as Ariados's manipulated him into a puppet. Since then, he was used in other Contests, but would usually cause the elimination of Jessie for one reason or another.
Wobbuffet ran away from the group in Fear Factor Phony after a fake ghost made by some Ghost Pokémon scared him off. While he was running away, he saw a dancing and fell in love with it.

Roamin' Off!, after Jessie, James, and Meowth had disbanded, James went after a with the intention of presenting it to the boss and crediting the whole trio, believing the promise of success would be enough to bring Jessie and Meowth back.

====Personality and characteristics====
Wobbuffet is used occasionally for battles. Its knowledge of moves like and comes in handy, since Team Rocket often find themselves on the receiving end of powerful attacks. Despite being powerful, Wobbuffet sees only infrequent use in battles.
Wobbuffet usually serves as a comic relief character due to his goofy, energetic, and looney personality. He emerges from his frequently as a running gag, and often at inappropriate moments which frustrated Jessie at times. Team Rocket has also had various vehicles and robots based on him. James once remarked that he makes Misty's Psyduck look like a genius. Wobbuffet is also noted for his inability to recognize a Wynaut as a member of his own evolutionary line in Wynaut's debut episode.
Even though Jessie often seems annoyed with Wobbuffet, she was shown to truly care for him. This is showcased in a handful of episodes, including Who, What, When, Where, Wynaut?, in which Wobbuffet temporarily went missing. Jessie was very worried and desperately went searching for him on the island. Another instance was in Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama! where Jessie was upset at James's idea to send Wobbuffet to since they couldn't tell him apart from Narissa's . Even though Wobbuffet has been absent, he has still been shown to be doing his comical pose every time Team Rocket do their motto.
Wobbuffet also seems to care for Jessie deeply and see her as a motherly figure. This can be seen in The Wayward Wobbuffet, when he was lost and imagined a cloud in the shape of Jessie, childishly clapping with joy after noticing it. Even so, his loyalty has sometimes been in question, such as in Fear Factor Phony, where he temporarily left the group to hang out with some Pokémon and even single-handedly stopped Team Rocket's plan to steal Pokémon. Since his return, Wobbuffet has taken back his role as the "fourth member" of the team. He also seems to get more battling time now, and his capability of reflecting attacks has proven useful many times. Before Jessie caught her , Wobbuffet was her major battler, and did rather well, despite his incapability of using offensive moves. By A Fork in the Road! A Parting of the Ways!, he was shown to have become very close to Jessie, as seen when he chose to stay with her over a female Wobbuffet.
Wobbuffet appears to be good friends with Meowth. This was demonstrated when he was the only one to notice that an was not simply Team Rocket's Meowth covered in mud, whilst Jessie and James mistook it as that. Later, following an encounter between Meowth and 's true form, Wobbuffet was the only member to snap Meowth out of his horror and teared up in joy when Meowth recovered.
As seen in Mad About Blue, Wobbuffet is shown to be under pressure after the Pokémon fanatics try to examine him due to his blue appearance.
