    He wanted growlithe to watch over his parents while he was gone.
    Stupid of him though, since Team Rocket might have had a chans of catching Pikachu whit a strong Pokémon like Growlithe.

    Same reason Meowth did not want Skitty to come with Team Rocket. Do you think he would want his Growlithe to be blasted in the air so many times by the same Pikachu?

    It's a pity to have Growlithe fight for evil purposes.. moreover, if Growlithe is on Team Rocket's side, it'll be easy to catch Pikachu, and the editors probably have to think of creative ways to beat Team Rocket for ALL the episodes Team Rocket appeared in..

    if TR possessed weaker pokemon (like now), the editors don't need to think of better ways for Ash to defeat TR except to have Pikachu blast TR off with some electric attacks.. I think editors just didnt' want to stress their minds out o.o

    well, that's just my opinion though, not necessarily true

    He did't bring his Growlithe so Growlithe could protect James parents, James left Growlithe so it could blast of and blast of again he thinks first he knew that if Growlithe come it would get wiped by Ash and Co.

    I've got an answer: because James is an idiot. Sure Growlithe would have got blown away with the rest of the team, but give that pup a fire stone and Team Rocket might have actually had a chance for once.

    Yes it did, and it was a dumb reason. Surely his parents are that rich they could have bough or caught their own Pokemon to protect them. Just my 2 cents.

    Well you can buy Pokemon from game corners in exchange for coins, and you can buy Pokeballs to catch Pokemon, and considering how much money James's parents have...

    And you know how? They never actually showed anyone go into a game corner and get coins, did they? For all we know, there might be places in the anime where you can buy Pokemon in exchange for coins. Also, the safari supplies free pokeballs to catch Pokemon in the safari zone aslong as you pay the price for getting in.

    Sorry. I didn't mean to get you mad or anything, but anime really is annoying at times.

    actually, I feel that James really loved all his Pokemon.. perhaps even as much as Ash does to his Pokemon.. He values his Pokemon and you hardly see him hitting or scolding his own Pokemon (only Jessie does xD)..

    heh, I think James' pokemon love him more than he loves them, every single time he releases his Cacnea, it gives him a biiiiig hug! If that is a hug o.o
