Pokemon's Misty and Jessie Voice Actress Sadly Passes Away
Rachael Lillis, the beloved voice actress behind iconic Pokémon characters Misty and Jessie, passed away at 55 after a courageous battle with breast cancer. The news was shared by her sister, Laurie Orr, on their GoFundMe page.
Lillis' passing on August 10th, 2024, prompted an outpouring of grief from family, friends, and fans. Orr described Lillis' peaceful passing and expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support shown through the GoFundMe campaign, which raised over $100,000. These funds will cover medical expenses, a memorial service, and support cancer-related charities.
Fellow voice actors, including Veronica Taylor (Ash Ketchum) and Tara Sands (Bulbasaur), shared heartfelt tributes on social media, remembering Lillis' kindness and extraordinary talent. Fans also expressed their sorrow, recalling her contributions to their childhoods through her work on Pokémon, Revolutionary Girl Utena, and Ape Escape 2.
