Team Rocket trio: Difference between revisions

Beginning in ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'', they have made various attempts to capture {{an|Meloetta}}, only for it to disappear on each attempt. However, they managed to capture it in ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'' and ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'' with the help of Giovanni and Dr. Zager after the former defeated Ash with his {{TP|Giovanni|Persian}}. The trio capturing Meloetta was part of the plan in order for Giovanni to summon the Kami trio using the {{key|V|Reveal Glass}}. However, once Meloetta was freed from his control, Giovanni became possessed by the item's powers which made him want raging power. The Team Rocket trio temporarily switch sides in order to stop Giovanni. They did so by pushing him off a cliff, which managed to snap him out of the controlled rage. Losing Meloetta foiled their plans in capturing the Kami trio, along with interference by [[Ridley]], Ash and the others. With Giovanni back to normal, he along with the trio, Dr. Zager and the Rocket Grunts, leave Unova and return to Kanto.

In ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]'' and ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'' they were spying at [[Team Plasma]]'s operation at the [[White Ruins]], waiting for the right time to enter the scene. However, they only decided to do so after [[Looker]] found out where they were hiding in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'' and asked them for help. Even if they fought against Team Plasma independently of Looker's intended guidance, they still did it in order to help him (having formed a mutual alliance with him during the {{series|DP}}), along with defeating Team Plasma, since they had a rivalry against the organization.
