'''Team Rocket Grunts''' (Japanese: '''ロケットだんいん''' ''Team Rocket Member'' in Generation I, '''ロケットだんいんのしたっぱ''' ''Team Rocket Underling Member'' in Generation II, '''ロケットだんのしたっぱ''' ''Team Rocket Underling'' in Generation III and IV) are members of [[Team Rocket]]. They act as fodder, enforcers, soldiers, workmen, crooks, and backup for various leaders in the criminal organization. They usually use Pokémon with higher Attack stat, such as Raticate.

Male Team Rocket Grunts are depicted as men wearing black uniforms with a big red R on them, as well as gray gloves and boots (white in Generations I and II). They also wear a black cap, which in the first three Generations completely hides their short hair, though it is shown as pink in Generation IV. In [[Generation I]], they each hold a whip, though, in a similar change to the {{tc|Ace Trainer|Cooltrainers}}, it is omitted in all further depictions. They also seem to be adults in Generation I, though they seem a bit younger, perhaps even teens, in further games.

In Generation II, female Team Rocket Grunts debuted. In their introductory games, these female grunts are depicted as red haired women in white Team Rocket uniforms without caps, with their design being very similar to [[Cassidy]] and their outfit similar to [[Jessie]]'s. However, their overworld sprites had caps and black uniforms like the males. In Generations III and IV, their design is drastically changed, and they are shown more similar to their male counterparts, wearing a black uniform with a red R, a black cap, and gray gloves and boots, though they wear black shorts or a skirt instead of pants. They are shown to have short, pink hair in the games, though their artwork from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} shows their hair as green.

In {{game|Red and Blue|s}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the grunts are found throughout Kanto creating general disruption. They first appear in [[Mt. Moon]], going after [[Fossil]]s. One grunt is found at the end of the [[Nugget Bridge]] recruiting for Team Rocket, and another had stolen a [[TM]] from an elderly couple in [[Cerulean City]]. In [[Celadon City]], the grunts operate a base under the [[Rocket Game Corner|Game Corner]] trafficking {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} all over the world, and they are also responsible for the murder of the mother {{p|Marowak}} in [[Pokémon Tower]] as part of a plan to steal {{p|Cubone}} and sell their skulls. They also appear when they take over the [[Silph Co.]] headquarters. After the player defeats them there, [[Giovanni]] disappears, later reappearing at his own [[Viridian Gym|Gym]], and the grunts are not seen after this in the original games. However, in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, two grunts remain in an old man's house next to the restaurant in [[Celadon City]]; they will never leave, nor will they {{pkmn|battle}} the player. Additionally, in {{game|Yellow}}, both [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are from the ''Rocket'' Trainer class, and appear next to the regular grunts in Mt. Moon, the Game Corner and Silph Co.

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, grunts are also found on several of the [[Sevii Islands]], even after Giovanni's defeat. On [[Knot Island]], the player faces two in front of a cave which leads to the Ruby for the [[Net Center]]. On [[Floe Island]], the player helps [[Lorelei]], who nearly defeated a grunt with her {{p|Lapras}}'s {{m|Ice Beam}} while interrogating Team Rocket at [[Icefall Cave]]. On [[Fortune Island]], there is a grunt in front of [[Altering Cave]]. On [[Chrono Island]], the player finds a group of male and female grunts operating from [[Rocket Warehouse|a warehouse]] obtaining a large number of Pokémon, most of them rare, and trying to make a working prototype of the high-frequency sound wave machine which would influence [[evolution]]. After the player defeats the grunts and the two {{tc|Executive|Admins}}, they will pull out, but not before telling the player that they will find Giovanni and restore Team Rocket. They have not been seen in the Sevii Islands since.
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, grunts are also found on several of the [[Sevii Islands]], even after Giovanni's defeat. On [[One Island]], the player faces two in front of a cave which leads to the Ruby for the [[Pokémon Network Center]]. On [[Four Island]], the player helps [[Lorelei]], who nearly defeated a grunt with her {{p|Lapras}}'s {{m|Ice Beam}} while interrogating Team Rocket at [[Icefall Cave]]. On [[Six Island]], there is a grunt in front of [[Altering Cave]]. On [[Five Island]], the player finds a group of male and female grunts operating from [[Rocket Warehouse|a warehouse]] obtaining a large number of Pokémon, most of them rare, and trying to make a working prototype of the high-frequency sound wave machine which would influence [[evolution]]. After the player defeats the grunts and the two {{tc|Executive|Admins}}, they will pull out, but not before telling the player that they will find Giovanni and restore Team Rocket. They have not been seen in the Sevii Islands since.


In the Generation II games and their remakes, three years after the events of the original games, Team Rocket, under the administration of the Executives, create havoc throughout Johto gaining profit and trying to communicate with their old leader, Giovanni. The grunts are first seen operating in the [[Slowpoke Well]], led by [[Proton]], cutting off {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tails to sell. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, a Grunt is seen bothering a [[Kimono Girl]] at the [[Ecruteak City]] Dance Theater. In [[Mahogany Town]], the player finds [[Team Rocket HQ]] underneath a souvenir shop, in which Team Rocket have been using a fully-working high-frequency sound wave machine that influences Pokémon [[evolution]], transmitting it from an antenna in a tree. They also help their Executives take over the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], as well as guard the [[Radio Director]], who is hidden in the [[Goldenrod Tunnel]]. After defeating [[Archer]], most grunts are gone for good. However, a lone grunt appears in [[Cerulean City]] later on, unaware of the disbanding of Team Rocket, who has stolen the {{key|II|Machine Part|Machine}} {{key|IV|Machine Part|Part}} from the [[Kanto Power Plant]]. After he is defeated, he states that he will return to his [[Unova|home country]] and revive [[Team Rocket]] there. It is [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|later revealed]] that when he returned home to [[Icirrus City]], he fell in love and started a family, effectively abandoning the idea for a quiet and peaceful life with his wife and child. Team Rocket has not been seen since.

Team Rocket Grunts use Pokémon from a variety of [[type]]s, but often employ {{type|Poison}} Pokémon more than others. Also, the large majority of their Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation I]], though Houndour is used in the [[Sevii Islands]] which were introduced in [[Generation II]].

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the Grunts have had few appearances. They first appear in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', under the command of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} trapping Trainers and trying to steal their Pokémon. But before Team Rocket could steal the Pokémon from all the Trainers onboard, they were stopped by {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}.

In [[Pokémon Origins]], several Team Rocket Grunts were seen. {{OBP|Red|Origins}} first encountered a Rocket Grunt in ''[[PO02|File 2 - Cubone]]'' in [[Cerulean City]], retrieving the stolen {{TM|28|Dig}} from him. A group of Team Rocket Grunts were later seen taking over the [[Pokémon Tower]] and making its top floor their base. When Red and {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} later infiltrated the Tower, their path was blocked by the {{OBP|Marowak|ghost|ghost Marowak}}. While Red tried to battle against the {{OBP|ghost|literal}}, Blue sneaked by it and made it to the upper floors, swiping the [[Silph Scope]] from one of the Grunts, which he then gave to Red, allowing him to identify the ghost. After {{p|Marowak}}'s spirit had been calmed, Red battled against one of the Rocket Grunts, and, thanks to the help of {{p|Cubone}}, was able to defeat the Grunt's {{p|Koffing}} with his {{p|Jolteon}}, forcing the Grunts to retreat.

In ''[[PO03|File 3 - Giovanni]]'', a pair of Rocker Grunts were seen when Red raided the [[Rocket Hideout]]. Several more Grunts were seen patrolling around [[Saffron City]] after the organization had taken over the [[Silph Co.]] office building. Once Red has cleared through the building, he entered Silph Co.'s president's office, where he found [[Giovanni]] and a Rocket Grunt watching over the president. The Rocket Grunt was also seen being responsible of carrying around a suitcase containing Giovanni's [[Poké Ball]]s. Several disguised Rocket Grunts were later seen serving Giovanni at the [[Viridian Gym]].
