<i>When Team Rocket sits down for a delicious lunch at a noodle shop, the shop's owner asks to speak to them. The owner, Christopher, was a Team Rocket trainee along with Jessie and James—but after they took him to a noodle stand one night, he realized there was more to life than Team Rocket. Thanks to their help, he now has a noodle shop empire! And after he sees how Meowth's claws are perfect for slicing noodles, he even offers Meowth a job. But Team Rocket sticks with what they know best; they build a giant ramen robot to ambush Ash and steal Pikachu, only to get blasted by Pikachu's Thunderbolt. | <i>When Team Rocket sits down for a delicious lunch at a noodle shop, the shop's owner asks to speak to them.

When the noodle maker loses his grasp on a ball of noodle dough, it goes hurtling towards {{MTR}} who uses {{m|Fury Swipes}} on it. In doing so he unintentionally slices the dough into perfect noodles, and Christopher is impressed. He asks Meowth to work for him, telling him that he is easily one of the best noodle makers ever and would eventually end up taking over the reins of the business. Meowth starts to picture the money and respect this would bring but Jessie and James object, telling Christopher that Meowth is needed to build their mechas. Though he hated that Meowth's talent would go to waste, Christopher does not want to do anything to inconvenience his mentors and dropped the matter. | When the noodle maker loses his grasp on a ball of noodle dough, it goes hurtling towards {{MTR}} who uses {{m|Fury Swipes}} on it.

Ash, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} leave the town with the stomachs full of delicious noodles and resume the journey to Snowpoint City when Team Rocket confronts the three again, this time with a noodle-inspired mecha. They are zapped by Pikachu yet again, and are blasted off to repeat their previous landing. Jessie and James blame their failure on Meowth, which angers him. Meowth announces he is going back to Christopher and train to become a noodle master. James tries to apologize for blaming their failure on Meowth, but Meowth still quits. James tries to chase after Meowth, but Jessie stops him explaining that Meowth should be allowed to decide what is best for himself. Still upset, James contemplates losing Meowth while Jessie looks at the [[Ribbon]]s she earned in the {{to|Solaceon}} and {{to|Majolica}} {{pkmn|Contest}}s and decides to be a full-time [[Pokémon Coordinator]]. Jessie tells James (to his absolute horror) that she is also quitting. Finally, she tells him that he should also consider leaving Team Rocket too, reminding him that he comes from a filthy-rich family and has a fiancé waiting for him before changing into her Jessilina costume and twirling away. A devastated James is left alone and he yells into the sunset, vowing to climb to the top of the Team Rocket ladder. | Ash, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} leave the town with the stomachs full of delicious noodles and resume the journey to Snowpoint City when Team Rocket confronts the three again, this time with a noodle-inspired mecha.

Later that night, James is crying next to a fire unable to imagine his life without his long-time teammates. He looks up and sees Meowth and Jessie in the stars, wondering what the two are up to. James then hears Ash and the others, and puts out his camp fire so he wouldn't be seen. Spying on them he overhears {{an|Dawn}} talking about an {{pkmn2|Shiny|oddly colored}} {{p|Metagross}} living on a nearby mountain. Realizing this would be ideal to give to the {{an|Giovanni|Boss}}, James decides to go after and catch it. However, he takes off so soon that he doesn't hear that this certain Metagross is very aggressive, and people who have previously tried to catch it have become seriously injured. | Later that night, James is crying next to a fire unable to imagine his life without his long-time teammates.
