Professor Aurea Juniper (Japanese: アララギ博士 Dr. Araragi) is the resident Pokémon Professor of Nuvema Town in the Unova region. She specializes in the origins of Pokémon.

In the core series games

Professor Juniper debuted in Pokémon Black and White, where, like the other professors, she will give the player a Pokédex in her lab; however, she leaves a present containing the first partner Pokémon at the player's house for the player, Bianca, and Cheren. She also demonstrates to the player how to capture their first Pokémon, a level 2 Patrat, with her level 7 Minccino.

Over the course of the game, if the player visits her in her lab, Professor Juniper will hand out a total of three TMs depending on the number of Unova Pokédex Pokémon the player has seen: TM54 (False Swipe) after seeing 25 Pokémon, TM17 (Protect) after seeing 60 Pokémon, and TM10 (Hidden Power) after seeing 115 Pokémon.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the player can call her over Xtransceiver to have the Pokédex evaluated, or to ask how a Pokémon in their party evolves.

Professor Juniper in the anime

In the anime, Professor Juniper debuted in In The Shadow of Zekrom! as an old friend of Professor Oak. She gave Ash, Delia, and Oak a ride in her SUV to her lab so she could study Ash's Pikachu who was ill. Later, she showed Ash the Unova first partner Pokémon, then gave Trip his first Pokémon, Snivy.

Ash later returned to Professor Juniper's lab after finding out that Pikachu had lost his electricity from Zekrom. Later the storm arrived again but this time it gave Pikachu's electric powers back, and Ash departed from her lab the next day.

In A Sandile Gusher of Change!, Juniper sent Ash the Poké Ball belonging to the Oshawott that was supposed to go to a new Trainer, but wandered away to go with Ash. In Minccino-Neat and Tidy! it was shown that she had sent Bianca to give Ash his Badge case. She then spoke to Ash via Bianca's Xtransceiver.

Ash sent his Pidove to her in Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest!, in order to make room for his newly captured Sewaddle. He switched them in The Lost World of Gothitelle!.

In A Venipede Stampede!, Professor Juniper and her lab assistants monitored Venipede swarm event in Castelia City, and they quickly identified that the problem was linked with strong energy waves coming from the Desert Resort. She flew over to Castelia and met up with Ash and his friends to investigate the unusual activity caused by Team Rocket. She was also set to appear in the unaired and non-canonical final episodes of Team Rocket's Meteonite mission; in May 2023, the scripts for these episodes surfaced, revealing that Juniper was to be involved in investigating the history of the Relic Castle and would recover a small Meteonite stolen by Team Rocket from the Nacrene City museum so it could be returned to Lenora.

In Archeops In The Modern World!, Fennel helped Juniper revive an Archen from a Plume Fossil. Archen later evolved into Archeops and left with a passing flock of Archeops. While the encounter was brief, Juniper was able to document the cry and behavioral data on the Archen evolutionary line.

In Crisis at Chargestone Cave!, the group encountered Professor Juniper while she and her team were conducting research on the electric stones of Chargestone Cave. Juniper also met up with Bianca for their planned trade in Evolution Exchange Excitement!. Juniper traded her Karrablast for Bianca's Shelmet, making both of them evolve at Chargestone Cave. In order to help Bianca work with her new Escavalier, Professor Juniper suggested they have a Tag Battle against Ash and Cilan, who used Boldore and Crustle, respectively. Although Professor Juniper's Accelgor and Bianca's Escavalier learned to work together and eventually defeat Boldore, they were both defeated by Crustle's Rock Wrecker. Juniper was surprised to encounter her father Cedric, who revealed that he had located the Hero's Ruin. Ash's group left with Cedric in Explorers of the Hero's Ruin!, while Professor Juniper remained behind to continue her Chargestone Cave research.

In New Places... Familiar Faces!, Juniper met up with Ash and his friends again when they returned to Nuvema Town after the Vertress Conference. She also presented a beginner Trainer, Nanette, the three first partner Pokémon. After some thinking, Nanette chose Tepig as her first Pokémon. Juniper also received a call from her father, who revealed that the White Ruins had been discovered. While Juniper was unable to join her father, she suggested Ash's group visit the new Aspertia Gym en route to the White Ruins.

In Farewell, Unova! Setting Sail for New Adventures!, Juniper told Ash and his friends about a cruise that would travel through the Decolore Islands to Kanto, after they expressed their wishes to travel to Kanto together. She bought tickets for them to board the ship, but a disguised James bumped into her on purpose to switch the tickets around with fakes to lure Ash and his friends into another scheme of Team Rocket's. She wished the group all the best before returning to her lab. She also made plans to transfer Ash's Unova Pokémon from her lab to Professor Oak's laboratory.

Juniper made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of Genesect and the Legend Awakened.

Character

Professor Juniper is pleasant and mature. She willingly offers her assistance, even providing Ash's group with ship tickets on two occasions, in New Places... Familiar Faces! and Farewell, Unova! Setting Sail for New Adventures!, respectively. She has a particular interest in the origins of Pokémon. Juniper is often busy with multiple projects at any given time, all of which require extensive fieldwork and data analysis back at the lab.

Professor Juniper obtained Accelgor as a Shelmet when Bianca traded it to her for her Karrablast in Evolution Exchange Excitement! to trigger the evolution. It participated with Juniper's former Karrablast, now an Escavalier, in a Tag Battle against Boldore and Crustle, and unlike Escavalier with Bianca, obeyed Juniper with ease.

After Escavalier began obeying Bianca during the battle upon being protected by Substitute, the two Bug-types defeated Boldore with their combined Hyper Beam attacks but Accelgor was subsequently defeated in a single hit by a Shell Smash-boosted Rock Wrecker from Crustle, Escavalier soon following suit in the same manner.

Accelgor's known moves are Acid, Energy Ball, Protect, Substitute, Quick Attack, Recover, and Hyper Beam.

Plume Fossil → Archen → Archeops ♀

Debut	Archeops In The Modern World!

Working with Fennel in order to utilize Musharna's Dream Mist and using a Plume Fossil provided to her by Lenora, Professor Juniper was able to revive an Archen in a lab between Castelia City and Nimbasa Town. Archen quickly proved to be a handful and refused to eat modern Pokémon food. She soon formed a bond with Ash and his Tranquill as they attempted to teach Archen to fly.

Some ancient seeds were attached to Archen when she was revived and were unknowingly planted in the lab. Cry after cry, the seeds grew and grew until the vines had made the lab completely inaccessible. The vines then began blossoming with fruit, and Archen quickly ran up and helped herself to her first meal since being revived. She then evolved into Archeops and in turn, gained the ability to fly. However, Team Rocket attempted to capture Archeops and, in the process, destroyed the habitat she had created. Luckily, a flock of Archeops had heard her call and arrived to take her with them. After saying a farewell to her new friends, Archeops flew off to live with her own kind.

Archeops's only known moves are Dragon Breath and Peck.

History

Black & White arc

Professor Juniper debuted in Fussing and Fighting, where she prepared three first partner Pokémon to be given to three new Trainers. While on a call with Fennel, the first partner Pokémon got into a fight into each other. The next day, Juniper had three first partner Pokémon mailed alongside a set of three Pokédexes to the house of Black, one of the new Trainers. Of the three, Tepig ended up in Black's hands, while Cheren and Bianca received Snivy and Oshawott, respectively. Due to Black's impatient nature, he accidentally dropped Cheren and Bianca's Pokédexes in a puddle of rainwater, damaging and rendering them unusable. While the Pokédexes undergo repairs, Juniper sent Cheren and Bianca off to find Black and inform him to keep his Pokédex safe.

After Cheren and Bianca successfully met up with Black, they gave Professor Juniper his Xtransceiver number so that she may be in contact with him. In At Liberty on Liberty Garden, she contacted Black to have him and White travel to Liberty Garden in order to get data on the Mythical Pokémon Victini. After Black succeeded in this mission, Professor Juniper's father, Cedric Juniper, arrived to assist in repairing the Pokédexes.

By A Lost Melody, Professor Juniper and her father successfully repaired the Pokédexes. She had Cedric sent to Castelia City in order to deliver Bianca her fixed Pokédex. To Juniper's shock, Bianca revealed that she decided to become her assistant and instead handed the Pokédex over to White.

In A Wretched Reunion, Juniper traveled to Route 6 alongside Fennel. There, they witnessed Black, White, and Cedric in battle with N, the king of Team Plasma. During the battle, Cedric revealed that a year ago, N barged into his lab and liberated a second set of first partner Pokémon meant to be given out to another set of Trainers. N chastised Professor Juniper for her treatment of the first partner Pokémon given to Black and his friends and claimed that she only thinks of them as objects meant to be researched. When Black tried to stop N, his Musha chose to run away instead of eating his dreams as usual. The shock of losing one of his most trusted Pokémon caused Black to faint from shock.

In Dream a Little Dream, Professor Juniper, Fennel, Amanita, and White looked after Black at the Pokémon League gates while they watch the tournament.

Black 2 & White 2 arc

In Pink Slip, Professor Juniper hides in Fennel's home alongside Fennel, Amanita, Bianca, and Cedric Juniper to escape the Plasma Frigate freezing Unova's cities. There, Fennel reveals that after researching the Dream Mist for two years, she managed to discover another dimension known as the Pokémon Dream World. She hypothesizes that this may have been where Black went to after being sealed into the Light Stone. To confirm this, Fennel has White sent to the Entralink, where the real world and Dream World are most connected. The operation proves to be a success as White manages to find and obtain the Light Stone.

Professor Juniper appeared in BWGP02. Takurō and Mashiro had arrived in Accumula Town and saw her. She evaluated Takurō's Pokédex and commented on how it was filling up quite a bit. She then told him to keep it up. Professor Juniper then told the two about a Purrloin that was causing trouble. Later, when Takurō had his Pidove flap up a gust of wind, Professor Juniper went with Mashiro to a cliff where Takurō was but discovered that Takurō had already rescued himself and Purrloin.
