In ''[[BW022|A Venipede Stampede!]]'', Jessie, James, Meowth, Pierce, and Dr. Zager flew over the [[Desert Resort]], using the small Meteonite to scan for the larger one. When they discovered it, the energy pulses in the nearby area destabilized, a swarm of {{p|Venipede}} fled the desert and descended upon [[Castelia City]]. Giovanni was later seen heading for Unova in order to oversee its collection in person. At the end of the episode, [[Professor Juniper]] went to the desert to investigate what had happened. | In ''[[BW022|A Venipede Stampede!]]'', Jessie, James, Meowth, Pierce, and Dr. Zager flew over the [[Desert Resort]], using the small Meteonite to scan for the larger one.

Two [[BW023 (unaired)|unaired]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were to have featured the climax of Team Rocket's quest for the Meteonite and their fight with [[Team Plasma]] over it, until they were indefinitely postponed and [[BW112|later]] retconned out of continuity. | Two [[BW023 (unaired)|unaired]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were to have featured the climax of Team Rocket's quest for the Meteonite and their fight with [[Team Plasma]] over it, until they were indefinitely postponed and [[BW112|later]] retconned out of continuity. It was revealed to have served as an artificial sun for an ancient people who used it to survive following a volcanic eruption. However, its power eventually grew uncontrollable, destroying the civilization. It was sealed in the [[Relic Castle]] following this, until Team Rocket discovered it and broke the seal. Giovanni obtained it and brought it to Castelia City, where he presented it to a gathering of powerful figures in the Unovan underworld, intending to force them to join Team Rocket under the threat of manipulating the weather with it if they refused. The party was then attacked by Team Plasma, who stole the Meteonite so it could be used for {{an|N|their hero}}'s benefit. However, it destabilized during their escape, forcing them to land in the Desert Resort and consult their leader [[Ghetsis]] for instruction on what to do next. This allowed Team Rocket to catch up with them, and a battle between the two [[Villainous team|teams]] broke out; during their conflict, the Meteonite melted Team Plasma's helicopter and rose into the air, releasing increasingly powerful bursts of heat that threatened to destroy the Desert Resort and Castelia City. {{AP|Pikachu}}, who had fallen under the Meteonite's influence after interacting with it earlier, was eventually able to destroy the Meteonite with a supercharged {{m|Electro Ball}} after Giovanni and Ghetsis ordered their respective teams to abandon their missions to obtain it. In the aftermath, Professor Juniper recovered the small Meteonite and decided to return it to [[Lenora]] in Nacrene City. | ||
In ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]'', [[Matori]] told Jessie, James, and Meowth the mission was over and discharged them to do as they pleased in Unova. | |||
