Answer a current topic: I prefer them in the games more, especially the Johto era games. They really pushed their game then and were everywhere in Johto.

Reason for joining: Team Rocket's hands down the best villainous team ever. Not because they're the original and first evil team but because I feel like they have a lot of depth and I personally love their boss.

Who is your favorite Team Rocket executive?
Proton! Cool design, very fitting for a Rocket executive. But Ariana is so pretty too.

Do you prefer Team Rocket in the Anime,Games or both?
I've grown a bit tired of the Rocket trio in the anime since they're so overused and the plots are the same, but even so I can't help but like them. They were some of my favorite characters originally so it's tough to let that go. I prefer them in the anime!

Welcome aboard Sheep.

I agree it's always "Let's get Pikachu" and then "we're blasting off again" but I still love them. It wouldn't be pokemon without them. I;m really glad they changed it back after the whole Unova thing, what with the black uniforms and whatnot.

well yeah, but the Anime Rockets are there mainly for comedic relief. Their attempt to steal Pikachu is just a plot device to keep them in the show. Jessie Wobbuffet can easily take out pikachu, as we've seen in a few episodes, so it's not like Pikachu is that powerful.
Plus I think at one time they had stolen a miniature Ditto but instead of fleeing with it, they opened a sideshow and still attempted to steal Pikachu only loose Ditto.

Reason for joining: I'm a huge Team Rocket fan, and have been ever since I had first seen them in the anime.

Do you prefer Team Rocket in the Anime, Games or both?
I prefer the anime Team Rocket, as they're a little... comedic. They may not be as funny as they once were, but still. Team Rocket in-game is just way too serious.

Who is your favorite Team Rocket executive?
Probably Archer, since he's pretty calm and cool.

Why is it that Team Rockets "business ventures" keep failing?
Maybe their plans weren't well thought-out? If they gave a little more effort and put some additional time into thinking them, then I'm pretty sure they would have succeeded in at least one of their business ventures. d:

Welcome aboard.

Bonus Topic:
Team Rocket has deployed some very creative tools,vehicles and other contraptions in their attempts to catch Pikachu. Which one is you favorite/most memorable?

Mine would have to be the simple Magikarp Submarine they used mainly in the Orange Islands.

Need a refresher on the stuff they've used? I have a list for that. :)

My most favorite would definitely have to be the Meowth hot-air balloon. It made appearances in almost all seasons of Pokémon anime. Most of the time, Team Rocket blasted-off with it. Pokémon-provoker is my favorite as well. With this machine, you're able to increase a Pokémon's anger, helping it to raise its strength temporarily. Another of my favorite is vacuum car, which debuted in one of the episodes of Advance Generation series (don't exactly remember which, though).

Ironically enough I just caught my brother watching a Pokemon episode on Boomerang yesterday using one of my favorite contraptions. xD;; The Meowth-bot (Mecha-Meowthinator) from the Orange Islands episode where Snorlax's Pokeball is broken is one of my favorites - that thing was severally overpowered though seemed fun to control. It wasn't the biggest invention they'd came up with but it was pretty successful on a lot of (smaller) Pokemon bar Snorlax. Basically any Meowth bot. :D

Answer topic question: Team Rocket has deployed some very creative tools,vehicles and other contraptions in their attempts to catch Pikachu. Which one is you favorite/most memorable?
It has to be the meow the hot air balloon. It's classic and is in almost every episode..

Which Generation of Team Rocket did you enjoy the most?
I'd have to say the Kanto generation through the johto generation. Mainly because I grew up with that generation.

Do you prefer Team Rocket in the Anime,Games or both?
I'd have to say the anime. The ones in the game aren't like the ones in the show(obviously). And the ones in the games don't have a talking meowth. :)

And to answer one of the current topics: I love Team Rocket in both the Anime and in the games. However, I think that Jessie, James and Meowth in the anime are unmatched in the realm of comic-relief haha :).

Partner Pokemon: Koffing


Reason for joining: Oh geez I could go on for hours. No characters in any fiction make me feel better than Team Rocket. While in the games, eh, they're ok, in the anime, they're wonderful characters. My pride and joy is an article I wrote on Wynaut? Magazine (bobandbill and Slayr231 write there as well) about why Jessie, James, and Meowth aren't the villains they're made out to be. Plus, James had a Koffing, the happiest Pokemon ever, and Jessie has Wobbuffet, the second happiest Pokemon ever!!

Do you prefer the anime or games versions of TR?
I much, much prefer the anime. In the games, they're like "I'mma steal your Pokemon, whatever", whereas in the anime you feel a genuine connection to them.

Very excited about a Team Rocket club. Count me in.

Username: Murkmire
One Partner Pokemon(Any Pokemon you can get your hands on): Arbok
Reason for joining: Are you kidding? Team Rocket is awesome. I know it's a bit silly, but the TRTrio is funny, cool (in their own way) and I love their taste in Pokemon. With the exception of Meowth, of course. Giovanni, in game and anime is a pretty cool character, and I like his VA to boot.

Do you prefer Team Rocket in the Anime,Games or both? Both, to be quite honest. Though, it'd be a bit funny if there was a staple grunt similar to the TRTrio that fumbles about and tries to stop the player. Like a... an "anti-hero" possibly?

Who is your favorite Team Rocket executive? I never really considered that, because I never got to play HG/SS. But, after looking through them, I'd have to say Ariana, hands down. Not only is she pretty Grrr, but I like her Pokemon team of Arbok, Vileplume and Murkrow. My kind of woman. ;P

Why is it that Team Rockets "business ventures" keep failing? Because, sadly, there always has to be a happy ending. Not much else to it. ;P

Which Generation of Team Rocket did you enjoy the most? I couldn't really say. But, if I had to, it would be the Gen. II version. Definitely more activity from them, and should be more from them.

Reason for joining: Do I really need to explain? xD
Ok, then. My name is actually Giovanni, so I ended up liking the character before even knowing him. Then, I got really wrapped up into the games. The way he actually does incredible stuff with Team Rocket always impressed me, plus I always wondered his true motivations.

Team Rocket has deployed some very creative tools, vehicles and other contraptions in their attempts to catch Pikachu. Which one is you favorite/most memorable?

The Magikarp submarine, no doubt.

Reason for joining: Team Rocket is amazing. Ever since I started watching the anime, I fell in love with them. I'm a Rocketshipper too ^-^

I like Team Rocket better in the anime because they're funny and they come up with stupid disguises that Ash and co. for some reason can't see through? . In the game, they're just like any other bad guys, so I like the anime version more.

I think the episode in Advanced where they lose their pokémon is so sad :(

A question even though it isn't the topic: Do any of you ship JessiexJames or anything else to do with TR?

A ROCKETSHIPPER! STAY BACK BEAST! I SHALL DESTROY YOUR CLAIMS! James is gay. Oh so very gay. As such, he isn't in a relationship with Jessie. Even if he was hetero, in episode 423, Sweet Baby James, when James is questioned if Jessie is his wife, he says the following:
"Marry Jessie? I'D RATHER DIIIIIIE!".
Pretty strong evidence. If you want me to get into listing the James quotes that totally purvey his homosexuality, I'll deliver. Like, so very many exist.

Added all the new members to the list, sorry I've been quite busy and the clubs I started have suffered.

"Marry Jessie? I'D RATHER DIIIIIIE!".
Methinks the lad doth protest too much.
With it being a children's show from Japan I have severely high doubt that James is gay. All in all this topic will likely bring nothing but arguing, so with that in mind.

Do you enjoy Team Rocket in the new X&Y Anime? or do you wish they had tried to change it up?

What do you think of their choice of Pokemon?

Do you enjoy Team Rocket in the new X&Y Anime? or do you wish they had tried to change it up? Eh, I've completely stopped keeping track of the current anime. At least, for the time being. So I wouldn't know, but I can assume they're a mix between Unova TR and the original TR.

What do you think of their choice of Pokemon? I absolutely love their taste in Pokemon, and I do occasionally check on which Pokemon they catch in their new quest for conquest. Of course, they haven't disappointed. Pumpkaboo and Inkay are both lovely Pokemon.

They're not quite back to the golden days of Sinnoh, but they're at least much better than Unova TR. Wobbuffet being back brings so much joy to my heart, and Inkay is adorable. Seeing James give away food for a Pokemon, however, was really weird and out of character. But yeah, the original motto being back (but with the new actors, hm, interesting) is crazy awesome, and the goofy attitude is amazing. Now all we need is a grass type to munch on James, and maybe some Contests for Jessie to lose!

I like them in X and Y. They're not quite the same as pre-generation 5 but they're better
Then gen 5

Besides pumpkaboo, Inkay, and wabbafet (I don't know how to spell it by heart) I'd say a poison type for Jessie. And a grass, ground, and/or a poison for James.
