When was jessie introduced in the toy story series?

Jessica Jane 'Jessie' Pride is a cowgirl rag doll who made her debut in Toy Story 2, the second film in the Pixar animation franchise. She was created as a response to the idea of introducing a female character to the series, suggested by Nancy Lasseter and developed by John Lasseter, Pete Docter, Ash Brannon, and Andrew Stanton. In Toy Story 2, Jessie is portrayed as a brave and excitable doll who was abandoned by her first owner after the child outgrew her, leading to years of loneliness in storage before being rescued by Buzz Lightyear and Woody. Her character became a central figure in subsequent films including Toy Story 3, Toy Story 4, and Toy Story 5, where she takes on a leading role.
