While they still want to put Pokémon into a frenzied state, the {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s act more self-righteously, desiring is to liberate Pokémon from their Trainers and that they're doing this under orders of Ghetsis and in service of "{{an|N|the Hero}}." This suggests a different story arc based on the first games of Generation V was planned for the first incarnations of Team Plasma to feature in but it got scrapped as of the release of the sequels, the anime using the second incarnation of Team Plasma instead. | ||
** Additionally, {{an|Giovanni}} takes note of Team Plasma's name when it is revealed and says their presence requires Team Rocket having to recalculate how to operate within Unova, suggesting that he would still play a role in the originally planned Team Plasma-related story arc. In the arc the anime ended up using, however, Giovanni is not present. | |||
* The scene with {{p|Liepard}} attacking a skyscraper with {{m|Hyper Beam}} with two Team Plasma Grunts alongside it on a helicopter is reused for the ''Best Wishes! Season 2: Episode N'' opening, ''[[Be an Arrow!#Opening animation: Version 2 (BW109 - BW122)|Be an Arrow! 2013]]'', although it is newly animated rather than taken directly from the episode. The differences is that [[Aldith]] and [[Barret]] are in the scene (who have their uniforms designs from {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}) instead of one Team Plasma Grunt with the original {{game|Black and White|s}} uniform. | * The scene with {{p|Liepard}} attacking a skyscraper with {{m|Hyper Beam}} with two Team Plasma Grunts alongside it on a helicopter is reused for the ''Best Wishes!
