We should remove them from the article. HOWEVER, we must also realize that we don't know if they will be appearing or not (in other words, don't state that Team Rocket isn't appearing in HG/SS when removing the remakes link as if you know that they won't until we have more info.).

== Spoilers == | |||
Should I put a spoiler warning before the bit that reveals who the Viridian City Gym Leader is? [[User:Taromon777|Taromon777]] 09:45, 17 June 2009 (UTC) | |||
:It's not really needed. We don't have spoilers on Giovanni's page, Viridian City's page, or the Viridian Gym page.

== TR Name in Japanese == | |||
団 (dan) means "Group, Team, Club, Gang..." basically any grouping. It's used in school clubs, sports teams, etc. So putting it up as "Rocket Gang" is sort of misleading. It DOES mean that... but it also means "Rocket Team" or "Rocket Club" or any sort of "Rocket Group". I think we should mark it as "Rocket Team" because it is closest to the English name, even if TR is actually a gang. [[User:CherryParanoia|CherryParanoia]] 00:59, 1 September 2009 (UTC) | |||

== Team Rocket Base in the Anime? == | |||
In the first Paragraph it states "An underground school for aspiring Team Rocket operatives is present somewhere in the region, while the organization's headquarters were formerly near Pallet Town." What Episode confirms that the HQ base was anywhere near Pallet? --[[User:Lordrogersmith6485|Lordrogersmith6485]] 00:15, 16 May 2010 (UTC) | |||
:[[EP065]]. Team Rocket go to meet Giovanni at the head quarters before it is destroyed by Mewtwo. They then head to Oak's Lab in Pallet town planning to steal Pokémon. So presumably the HQ was close to Pallet. Then again in one episode they managed to get from Saffron City to Goldenrod in one night (EP159) so they can travel fast if need be.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 00:52, 16 May 2010 (UTC) | |||
::So is that more of an assumption rather than the consideration that the Team Rocket Trio are somehow capable of quick transporation? Well, we can leave that be I suppose. But what of the Underground School? When was this shown? --[[User:Lordrogersmith6485|Lordrogersmith6485]] 02:24, 16 May 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::Beligaronia, couldn't they have used the Magnet Train?

::::@CuboneKing Nope, it wasn't built yet and wouldn't be for a year, according to [[EP158]]. | |||
::::@Lordrogersmith6485 Possibly in [[SS012|Training Daze]], I haven't seen the episode but it's the only training centre reference I can think of off the top of my head. Nowhere in the episode article is it mentioned to be underground so I could still be wrong.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 02:36, 16 May 2010 (UTC) | |||

== Kuyck Kuyck Kuyck == | |||
Maybe noone else has noticed this guy, but there is a Rocket who laughs like like Curly in Gen 2 and the remakes, and is the only known guy you fight twice aside from the bosses. Seeing as the Rocket Bros. have their own page, how about this guy? I like him and would do it, but thought I should get the go ahead first. [[User:Nevar00|Nevar00]] 13:52, 11 June 2010 (UTC) | |||
:That sounds more like somthing that should be in the trivia section of this page. [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 9:17, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Consistency in other articles == | |||
I've seen "Team Rocket" used as both a singular (as in "Team Rocket steals a Pokémon") and plural noun (as in "Team Rocket steal a Pokémon") around the site in various articles. Which one of these is considered to be correct? Technically, the word "team" is singular, even though a team is by definition made up of more than one person.--[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantomjunkie]] 06:13, 2 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:The main problem is that there are two different (sort of) things called ''Team Rocket''. When it is singular it should normally be referring to the villainous team in Kanto and Johto. When it is plural it will normally be referring to [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in the anime, where it is often used to refer to the three as a group, as opposed to the team as a whole. If that makes sense. So ''Team Rcoket steals Pokémon'' in the games, while in the anime ''Team Rocket steal Ash's Pikachu''. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</sc> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 06:48, 2 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Slight bias == | |||
While I am new to editing this wiki, I'm assuming it is supposed to be neutral, so should the references to Team Rocket being "Evil" be removed? I'm not claiming that I disagree that they are, though. [[User:Absolution|Absolution]] 19:34, 14 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:No, since this is fiction and the writers obviously intended for them to be the bad guys. [[User:Idya Ran|Idya Ran]] 19:10, 13 October 2011 (UTC) | |||
== Useless Minions == | |||
This is just something that I noticed and I am not sure if it is worth noteing. Team Rocket is suppoosed to be a highly sucssesful group of poachers who cappture rare and valuble pokémon, yet most of the members(This is excluding Geovanni, The Iron Masked Marauder and previus members like Bruno and Lt. Surge) only train pokémon from the Rattata, Zubat, Ekans, Koffing, and Sandshrew families. Leaving one to wounder why they dont use the more powerful pokémon that they no doubt capture on thier Pokémon raids. [[User:EpicShadow|EpisShadow]] 10:11, 18 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Trio In Poverty == | |||
I think part of the Trio's section should include facts about there poverty situation and the fact that despite this, they can aford lots of realy expensive and heavy machinery that no normal person could afford. Other things that would go into this area of information would be the kinds of sidejobs they do like selling food at the indigo leuge championships. [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 10:48, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:I think it's pretty much accepted that any machinery or transportation they use is provided by Giovanni and the rest of Team Rocket. --[[User:Phantomjunkie|<span style="color:red">Phantom</span>]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|<span style="color:black">Junkie</span>]] 04:10, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
::I thought about that, but it makes no economical sens to spend so mutch money on a group with such a high rate of failure. There must be another way they get it. For simplicity's sake it should just say "the method by wich they retrieve the money is unkown". If it pleases I can write a paragraph about this when I have the time. [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 11:19, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::Don't quote me on this, but I seem to recall them mentioning occasionally that they are so poor because they spend all their salaries on their mechas. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</sc> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 04:32, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::: Would this be okay "The trio has often been shown as poor or having little money. This may be due to the unusual amount of machinery and costumes they use in their attempts to capture Ash’s Pikachu. Because of this, one would wonder why Giovanni continues to fund their projects. They often take on side-jobs like selling food at stadiums or creating fake items to sell to the public." [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 9:05, 19 July 2010 (UTC) | |||

== Split? == | |||
Can we split this article into two parts: "Team Rocket (game)" and Team Rocket (anime)". I'm surprised this hasn't already been done. The [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} trio really deserve their own article.

:Why should the trio get a whole page when each individual member has their own page?

::I think there is enough data to make a decent split, for example the origins are different in both Special and anime: In the anime Team Rocket has been running for decades under the command of Giovanni's mother. Also, during Best Wishes Team Rocket seem to be getting a relevant role and it's confirmed that they will clash with Team Plasma, I smell a lot of edit wars coming as soon as the special airs.[[User:LurKasumi|LurKasumi]] 18:08, 7 July 2011 (UTC) | |||
== Name pun == | |||
The Team Galactic and Team Plasma pages say Team Rocket's Japanese name is a pun. Is there some way this could be incorparated into this page? [[User:Idya Ran|Idya Ran]] 19:10, 13 October 2011 (UTC) | |||
==All generations== | |||
They have been seen in all generations...in Gen. 1 games, in Gen. 2 games, in FRLG, in HGSS, and in BW and B2W2. No other villainous team has been in so many games. Add to trivia?[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 20:43, 27 November 2012 (UTC) | |||
