“It is with a very heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of Rachael Lillis on Saturday evening,” fellow Pokemon voice actor Veronica Taylor posted on X.
“Rachael was an extraordinary talent, a bright light that shone through her voice whether speaking or singing.
“She will be forever remembered for the many animated roles she played, with her iconic performances as Pokemon’s Misty and Jessie being the most beloved.
“Rachael was so thankful for all the generous love and support that was given to her as she battled cancer.
“It truly made a positive difference.
“Her family also wishes to thank you as they take this time to grieve privately.”
Taylor said a memorial is being planned.
Lillis rose to fame in the 1997 Pokemon anime series playing the fan-favourite character of Misty.
She went on to play the villain Jessie in the Pokemon universe, as well as Jigglypuff in Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. games.
Lillis also voiced many other anime, cartoon and video game characters throughout her career.
Before her death, Lillis’ sister Laurie Orr had launched a GoFundMe explaining the breast cancer had spread to her spine and she was barely able to walk.
Following her death, the page was updated to say: “She passed peacefully Saturday night, without pain and for that we are grateful.
“Rachael (‘Rae’ as we called her) was a beautiful, smart, talented person with a kind heart who was so moved by all of you.
“She likened the response to this fund to the movie It’s A Wonderful Life, when George is surprised to learn just how much he is loved by his friends and how much they do care!
“My heart breaks losing my dear little sister, though I am comforted knowing she is free.”
Fans have remembered Lillis’ work.
“Goodbye and thank you for a childhood of memories, Rachael Lillis,” one person wrote on X.
“I’m truly heartbroken to hear this one, Rachael is a legendary staple of my youth and I’ll never forget the adventures she helped bring to life,” another wrote.
“The impact Rachael had on my generation’s upbringing will never be forgotten,” another person said.
