"We felt so happy you called us friends the other day that we wanted to give you a swell gift!" — Jenny
Jenny is a member of Team Buddy's research team.
Appearance[]
Jenny is a young woman who wears 1950s attire. She wears a pink and white dress and accessories with a pearl necklace and bracelet. Her shoes are dark red. Her sandy blonde hair is styled in a heavily curled ponytail and held back with a pink headband. She wears light blue eyeshadow.
Her appearance when not Buddyized is unknown.
Personality[]
Like all Buddyized people, Jenny is very cheerful, polite, and eager to please. She takes orders without question. She can occasionally get a bit spacey due to the Lucid Mist's effects. She uses her baking as a conversation starter, comfort, and distraction from negative emotions. She is the only Buddyized person to show moments of outright sadness, though she works hard to cover that up.
Her non-Buddyized personality is unknown. It can be assumed that she is intelligent enough to be considered for Neo Team Buddy's research team on her own merit.
Aether Foundation Audio Logs[]
Jenny is introduced as one of the researchers working under Scientist B-A5 to make a stronger Buddyization process. She and Jason were Buddyized, leaving them eager to please, overly happy, and a bit ditzy. They are excessively pushy and unconcerned with scientific results, which is annoys B-A5 by Day 9.
On Day 22, the power goes out in the lab, giving B-A5, Jenny, and Jason the opportunity to bond a bit. Jenny talks about how happy her Igglybuff in the daycare makes her, prompting B-A5 to talk about his home. When B-A5 talks about how dangerous the Pokémon are in his home region, Jason and Jenny panic and question why they can't make Pokémon nicer. B-A5 appreciates the sentiment and admits that he considers his two workers to be his only friends at the Aether Foundation.
Inspired by B-A5's story, Jason and Jenny take it upon themselves to make Pokémon nicer. On Day 24, they bring in the fruits of their labor: a Buddyized Galvantula. They admit that they Buddyized a few Aether Foundation scientists in order to do the necessary experiments but they are quite happy with the results. They go to tell the Boss about their experiment, oblivious to B-A5's objections.
On Day 25, they are off helping Professor Fennel at the Hau'Oli Salon, taking them away from the labs, preventing B-A5 from using them as his test subjects. He does admit that he misses them.
On Day 29, Jenny assists B-A5 as he uses the Nihilucid Mist on Cynthia.
On Day 32, Jason and Jenny try to help B-A5 through his breakdown, but their Buddyization prevents them from truly empathizing with his struggles. That night, Jason and Jenny catch wind that B-A5 intends to run away from Team Buddy, prompting them to take action to stop that. They get Buddyized Galvantula to delay and make B-A5 more susceptible to the Lucid Mist collar after they activated while they bring the Boss along to stop him. Ultimately, the Boss has Jason and Jenny bring B-A5 to the Nihilego Juicer, despite him begging them to stop.
On Day 35, Jason and Jenny access the upper floors of the Aether Foundation to retrieve some ice cream for Cynthia, their new boss. They are confronted by Lusamine, who questions them before sending them along their way. When Jenny starts crying, Jason comforts her before he has to send her to a misting chamber. When she admits that she's crying about Lusamine's rudeness toward the two of them, Jason does everything to comfort her, which Jenny is thankful for.
Day 39 reveals that Jason and Jenny genuinely don't know what happened to B-A5 and assume that he'll be returning to the labs at some point if for no other reason than to say goodbye before leaving.
Day 41 reveals that Jason and Jenny have a bit more investment in the research subject than first assumed. They grow worried as Cynthia ignores the protocols that B-A5 utilized in his trials, as she uses Nihilucid Mist without Buddyizing them with Lucid Mist first. However, their arguments fall on deaf ears and they must continue following Cynthia's protocol. Day 42 reveals that Jason and Jenny are in charge of disposing of the Ultra Failures that are unable to function after the Nihilucid Tests.
