Team Rocket trio: Difference between revisions

Though their general incompetence in making any sort of contribution to Team Rocket didn't go well for them as Giovanni contemplated firing them in one episode<!--which episode?--> (but reassigned them due to problematic developments and manpower shortages in Team Rocket) and was shown to not even remember who they were in ''[[DP080|The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!]]''. However, due to their false reports that they alone caused [[Team Aqua]], [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Galactic]] to disband, [[Matori]] recommended them to Giovanni for his plans in the [[Unova]] region. The trio got promoted and soon they became more serious and less goofy, changing to black uniforms from their original white uniforms. They focused less on capturing random Pokémon and more on the assignments that are given to them straight from headquarters. In ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]'' however, [[Matori]] informed them that they won't be needed for any more missions at the time. They began to worry that the boss had abandoned them. Before Matori contacted them about the situation, they have already returned to their white uniforms for unknown reasons. Therefore, they have returned to planning their own schemes like they did in the previous series, but often carry out their current plans in the same manner as their most recent missions and [[Dr. Zager]] frequently assists them in these schemes. They do keep some gadgets, such as jet packs they occasionally use to retreat; they have yet to be blasted off in the {{series|Best Wishes}}, and maintain their recent boost in athleticism.

Later, in ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'' and ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', they plotted to capture {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}; however, their attempts were foiled by Ash, his friends, and {{p|Landorus}}.
