Pokemon Owned (Anime):
Yamato never really had any pokemon of her own, but she does seem to share possession of the following pokemon with Kosaburou:
Ratta, Sleep, Okorizaru, Derubiru, 
Kapoeraa 

Information:  Yamato is the female half of the second duo of the Rocket-Dan to appear in the anime.  The orange-haired beauty and her partner, Kosaburou, are favored by Sakaki and are given more high-priority jobs than Musashi and Kojirou.  Unfortunately for them, their schemes are always found out and the duo usually spends time in jail for their crimes.  They find a way out each time, proving the resourcefulness of "real" members of the Rocket-Dan.

Yamato has no problem showing her feelings of superiority to the lowly-ranking members, especially to Musashi.  Yamato seems to have a particular hatred for Musashi, yet at the moment no one really knows why. 

Yamato is currently in jail for her involvement in the capture of the baby Lugia.

Links to Fan Pages: 

The Rocket Asylum has a bunch of information about the Rocket-Dan.  One of the few character pages that's still being updated, the Rocket Asylum has bios on all of the Rocket-Dan members (minus the ones that appear in the episodes 4Kids hasn't dubbed yet), fanfics, quotes, mottos, and a lot of other stuff.  Plus, you just have to laugh at the "Pokemon Live" pictures!
