Once Team Rocket is defeated, she will thank the player with a Pink Bow^GSC/BrightPowder^HGSS.

DJ Mary in Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver

History

Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver

DJ Mary debuted in Air Time!, where she was first seen at the Goldenrod Radio Tower. Ash appeared on her show to talk about his Pokémon and his aspirations. She was due to narrate the next radio segment, a drama series, but Team Rocket had earlier destroyed the radio station's tape reels. Team Rocket, disguised as the Dugtrio Trio, and Ash's group helped fill in the voice actor roles while DJ Mary narrated the radio drama about "Prince Goldenrod". She was forced to improvise after Team Rocket added their own twists to the script, but she managed to tie everything together.

In Will the Real Oak Please Stand Up?, DJ Mary and Professor Oak were going to do a live show in Maroon Town, but Team Rocket got wind of this and disguised themselves as Oak and Mary. With the help of Nurse Joy, a quiz show determined who was the real Oak and DJ Mary.

Pokémon Chronicles

In Oaknapped!, DJ Mary informed Tracey that Oak disappeared before he could tape a segment for her show. Tracey and Ritchie later caught up with her and Officer Jenny at Seafoam Island's TV station. Together, they located Oak and defeated his kidnappers, Butch and Cassidy.

Character

DJ Mary is well known for her celebrity interviews and radio segments, which are broadcast across the Kanto and Johto regions. She is good friends with Professor Oak and often works with him. She is also a celebrity in her own right and has her own fan-club.

DJ Mary worries about her broadcast schedules, though she is composed and upbeat during her performances. She is quick-thinking and can easily go impromptu during a radio interview, as seen in Air Time!, when she noticed Ash's overwhelming nervousness.

Although confused at the whole situation, Mary acts as one of the hosts covering the event.
