The motto has been ripped off repeatedly by Ash and {{ashfr}} during the series. The first time it was done was in ''[[EP021|Bye Bye Butterfree]]'', where Ash, Misty and Brock entered the house where Team Rocket was by breaking the windows and by saying the first lines of the motto. In ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]'', Ash, Misty, and Brock, along with [[Duplica]], put on Team Rocket uniforms and mocked the original motto, with Duplica severely angering the two by saying "ignite" instead of "unite". [[James's parents]] revealed that they weren't dead by saying the lines "Prepare for trouble!" and "Yes dear, and make it double!". | The motto has been ripped off repeatedly by Ash and {{ashfr}} during the series.

When defeated, and sent flying off due to a Pokémon's attack (usually {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunderbolt}}) or a malfunction in their mech, Jessie, James, and Meowth usually cry, {{tt|「やな感じ！」|”Yana kanji!”}} ("What a bad feeling!") in the original, which became "Team Rocket's blasting off again!" (4Kids dub) or "We're blasting off again!" (TPCi dub) before disappearing into the distance with a star. This usually happens only once each episode, but there have been many occasions in which it has happened multiple times, especially in ''[[DP043|Malice In Wonderland!]]'', where they are shown blasting off four times on screen, and heard to blast off many more times offscreen. Another occurrence when they blasted off more than once was in ''[[DP117|Noodles! Roamin' Off!]]'', but this could be because they blasted off once very early in the episode, followed by another blast off later, and a final blast off. Another reason could be because the episode focused on Team Rocket. In ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', James blasted off by himself. Butch and Cassidy have also "blasted off"; however, James noted once that he, Jessie, and Meowth had copyrighted it in ''[[AG159|Off The Unbeaten Path]]''. | When defeated, and sent flying off due to a Pokémon's attack (usually {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunderbolt}}) or a malfunction in their mech, Jessie, James, and Meowth usually cry, {{tt|「やな感じ！」|”Yana kanji!”}} ("What a bad feeling!") in the original, which became "Team Rocket's blasting off again!"

Team Rocket didn't blast off after ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' until ''[[BW029|Cottonee in Love!]]'', but from then onwards, they have blasted off every episode. However, there hasn't been yet a blast off in Unova which wasn't against their will and involved pain, as they have always blasted off with jetpacks. They also don't scream their infamous quote, " We're blasting off again! " for the aforementioned reason. | Team Rocket didn't blast off after ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' until ''[[BW029|Cottonee in Love!]]'', but from then onwards, they have blasted off every episode.
