Just to add in: During that flashback, James admits to Lupin, Sirius, and Pettigrew that he 'nicked it.' That doesn't necessarily prove that he is a seeker, just that he stole the snitch and 'had really good reflexes.'

It says in Harry Potter wiki that he played chaser in the gyriffindor team. Yet in the fifth book, in the pensive, he is playing with a snitch. And i think (im not sure) but doesnt someone mention james potter as a seeker in the first harry potter?

JK Rowling has said that James played Chaser. Jayce Carver Slytherin banner Talk 20:22, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

James is only said to have been a Seeker in the film adaptation of Philosopher's Stone. JKR stated in a 2000 interview that James played Chaser and Rowling's word is decisive. As for James toying around with a Snitch in the "Snape's Worst Memory" chapter of OotP, he was trying to impress Lily at the time, and the fact that he chose a Snitch to do so doesn't prove he was a Seeker — only that he had access to Quidditch equipment and thought the Snitch looked cooler than the Quaffle or Bludgers.
