    I got to wondering when i was listening to Team Rocket's Rock'n What is Giovanni's master plan? I think it's more than just capturing the world strongest pokemon or more than just money and world dominination. plus what does Rocket in their name mean like team aqua their name corresespond to their legendary pkmn target and their plot.
     
    "Rocket to the top through sheer intellect, determination, and force."

    Giovanni really was only about money. At least in game canon, his motivation was domination through economic means. Team Rocket was in every way organized crime in the fashion of the mafia... If Pokemon was a little bit more mature, I'm sure we'd see Team Rocket selling "Rare Candy", vitamins, and other kinds of drugs. Team Rocket is a means unto itself. Power simply attracts the corruptible, whom want power for the sake of power.
     
    Their plan is to obtain rare pokemon and sell them for as much money as they can. Also I think it is also to regain and recruit Mewtwo, and with him rule the world.
     
    I was been wondering that too. It's rather vague, however, it seems to be a sort of a "take over the world" scheme by obtaining power and wealth.

    This. Very well said. Giovanni is just a greedy bugger who happens to be talented and dark.
     
    They're quite clearly an organized crime syndicate, performing deeds of questionable legality for the sake of monetary gain. Giovanni's grand design is to get wealthy however he can.

    In a way, this makes Team Rocket more believable an intimidating than the seemingly more-popular-among-fanboys Team Galactic because Rocket's goal is achievable and and not founded in logic unlike Galactic's goal.
     
    To get all the rare pokemon in the world and to get rich. There other role was to steal Ash's Pikachu and to regect Magikarps.

    I don't recall him asking for ash's pikachu
     
    To get all powerful and legendary pokemon to use it in his disposal, which is to rule the world and be rich. That's what I've thought of...
     
    I'd say the pursuit of wealth and power. He steals the "regular" Pokemon for sale on the black market, and goes after the stronger ones to build an army to usurp control over those currently in power. Which is also why he funded the research and creation of Mewtwo.
     
    Well, Team Rocket's goal is harder to guess at then Aqua, Magma, and Galactic, but not much so. I shall tell you what I believe is correct on both generations.

    Team Rocket Generation 1: Led by Giovanni, they functioned as the Mafia of the pokemon world. Stealing pokemon, attacking and even killing trainers, and selling drugs... not to mention that they're stealing money from people via the Rocket Casino. They want money, and they want to be feared.

    That is, until we reach Silph Co. Team Rocket invaded with one thing in mind, the Master Ball. They were going to mass-produce the Master Ball, and capture powerful pokemon with them, such as the Legendary Birds, Mew, Mewtwo, Dragonite, Snorlax, Lapras, Gyarados, ect... allowing them to build an army to overthrow the Elite 4 and the Pokemon League, allowing them to rule over Kanto. But they bit off more they could chew, and Giovanni had to disban Team Rocket, but it wouldn't be the last time we would hear of them.

    Team Rocket Generation 2: Led by Apollo, they began to resume activities in Johto, selling Illegal foods, practicing Pokemon Abuse multiple times, once again trying to steal money, to produce a signal that Giovanni would hear, and to find a signal to make their pokemon into powerful machines of war.

    While the last one was perfected by Cipher, they layed the foundation down by forcing Magikarp to evolve early, in order to produce Gyarados, which would net them the perfect army of killing machines. But they didn't want to do anything too drastic until they could get Giovanni back, so they can allow him to take charge.

    Team Rocket Anime: Led by Giovanni, this team seems no different then the game, but it seems more megalomaniacal(sp?) Then the games, so I put it in. Giovanni wants to rule the world, and he wants power. He is interested in Ash's Pikachu because it is way too powerful to be normal. He funded the creation of Mewtwo, and attempted to use it, but it fled. I don't remember too much about him, but he does show slight interest in expanding Rocket control, but not enough to persue it formally, sending three mid-class rockets to attempt to build a base.

    Team Rocket Manga, and Neo Team Rocket: Don't know enough to make a guess, sorry.
