Neo Team Rocket: Difference between revisions

Neo Team Rocket were first seen in ''[[PS093|Sneasel Sneak Attack]]'' where they had stolen {{adv|Gold}}'s [[bag|backpack]] thinking it was [[Joey]]'s who had Pokémon vital to [[Professor Elm]]'s research. After realizing their mistake, they go directly to Professor Elm's lab where Gold and {{adv|Silver}} were battling. They interrupted the battle, electrocuting Gold with an {{p|Elekid}}, knocking him unconscious. Silver manages to defeat them with his {{TP|Silver|Totodile}} and {{TP|Silver|Sneasel}}, and Neo Team Rocket retreats.

They next appeared in ''[[PS100|Into the Unown]]'', capturing Gold and [[Bugsy]] inside the [[Ruins of Alph]] so as to steal the sleeping {{p|Unown}}. However, Gold and Bugsy manage to awaken all of the Unown who then chase them out of the chamber. Neo Team Rocket then trap the pair using Spinarak webs, but the trap backfires as they get stuck in the webs themselves. The group also appeared for a short time in ''[[PS102|Ursaring Major]]'' at the [[Slowpoke Well]], cutting off {{p|Slowpoke}}s' [[Slowpoke Tail|tail]]. They were quickly stopped by Silver who then bound them with ropes and left them there where they are later found by [[Kurt]].

[[Team Rocket Elite Trio|A trio of Neo Team Rocket elites]] later attempt to capture {{DL|Legendary beasts (Adventures)|Suicune}} after following [[Eusine]] in ''[[PS128|Indubitably Ditto]]'', but they are quickly halted when {{adv|Crystal}} has [[Crystal (Adventures)#Parasee|Parasee]] use {{m|Spore}} to put every Pokémon in a 2 mile radius to [[Sleep (status ailment)|sleep]]. Eusine then battles against Neo Team Rocket in ''[[PS129|Great Girafarig]]'' while Crys searches for Suicune. They surround the battlefield in an electric web created by Spinarak and Elekid, and Eusine sends out his {{p|Jumpluff}} after being electrocuted by the web. His Jumpluff uses {{m|Cotton Spore}}, as well as a sneaky {{m|Leech Seed}} and the two manage to make their escape, leaving behind a dummy and metal chain wrapped around the web that Girafarig's tail clamps down on, electrocuting both Harry and his Girafarig.

Sham and Carl later appear in ''[[PS163|Bringing Up Bellossom]]'' having taken control of the [[Magnet Train]] during the [[Gym Leader]] battles. The Gym Leaders then board the train, and a major battle ensues. This later proves to be a diversion so the [[Masked Man]] could fulfill his mission to capture {{p|Celebi}}.
