Team Magma Grunt (Trainer class): Difference between revisions

Team Magma grunts have made several appearances in the anime, using their Pokémon to infiltrate a target or to help [[Tabitha]] out. A group of Magma grunts made their first appearance in ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]'', where they tried to find ancient Pokémon in the ruins under [[Oldale Town]]. They use [[Professor Alden]] to guide them there, and after collecting data from the ruins, escape in their helicopter. In ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'', they dig into a special shrine underground on [[Dewford Island]], searching for Groudon and the [[Cave of Origin]].

In ''[[AG036|The Spheal of Approval]]'', two grunts, along with Tabitha, try to steal a curious stone linked with {{p|Groudon}} from the [[Oceanic Museum]]. They successfully escape with most of the stone. They appear again in ''[[AG054|Fight for the Meteorite!]]'' where they steal a meteorite from [[Professor Cozmo]] and use it to power a machine to disturb [[Mt. Chimney]]. They battle [[Team Aqua]] and win, but their plans are ruined by {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. Their last appearance is in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon!]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends!]]'', where the awakening of Groudon and {{p|Kyogre}} causes mass destruction before the two Pokémon calm down. No Team Magma grunts are seen again after this episode, with the exception of [[Brodie]], who appears in ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]''.

They make a brief appearance in a flashback in ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]''.
