The '''boss fantasy''' (Japanese: '''ニャース妄想''' ''{{tt|Nyarth|Meowth}} delusion'') is a segment in the [[Pokémon anime]] where {{MTR}} thinks of practical uses for the [[Pokémon]] being focused on in the current episode. Through this, the [[Giovanni]] in Meowth's imagination rewards Team Rocket for their generosity, which gives Jessie and James the motivation to go through with their next plan. The segment debuted in ''[[EP021|Bye Bye Butterfree!]]'', but became regular only after ''[[EP205|The Kecleon Caper]]'', appearing as often as the [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]] and blast offs during the Hoenn saga. | The '''boss fantasy''' (Japanese: '''ニャース妄想''' ''{{tt|Nyarth|Meowth}} delusion'') is a segment in the [[Pokémon anime]] where {{MTR}} thinks of practical uses for the [[Pokémon]] being focused on in the current episode.

The segment appeared less often in the {{tt|Diamond & Pearl series|DP saga}}. Due to the TRio shifting into a more serious nature in the {{tt|Best Wishes series|Best Wishes series}}, the boss fantasies have dissapeared completely. Whether they will return in the future is not known. | ||
It can be noted that the Giovanni in such fantasies almost always says he will reward "Meowth and his friends" for bringing (Pokémon so and so) instead of "Jessie, James and Meowth" or a variation of that. This can be attributed to the fact that Meowth is usually the one who dreams up these fantasies, and his ego causes him to imagine Giovanni rewarding him first, then his friends. Occasionally, Meowth will imagine Giovanni in {{wp|Chibi (term)|chibi}} form while in others, Meowth will imagine Giovanni with a muscle-covered body. | It can be noted that the Giovanni in such fantasies almost always says he will reward "Meowth and his friends" for bringing (Pokémon so and so) instead of "Jessie, James and Meowth" or a variation of that.
