I rather missed the Team Rocket rivalry between Jessie & James, and Butch & Cassidy. They were totally absent from the Black & White series. Always fighting over who could say the motto better had me chuckling. Also, to me it seems as if Jessie & James have gained the competence that Butch & Cassidy had in previous seasons where they appeared, a bit serious at times, but still goofy. Maybe the writers gave Jessie & James their attitudes to wean off Butch & Cassidy?? I also miss the other running gags with them, such as nobody being able to get Butch's name right, and when the two could never pronounce correctly the name of the Professor / Dr from Team Rocket (I forgot his name ^__^). So would anyone like for the Butch & Cassidy to return in XY? I think it would really bring back the old personalities of Jessie & James, which is what I thought the writers were trying to do again.
