The trio returned fully to their previous role as comic relief in the ''Decolora Adventure!'' arc, roles they continued to retain during ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'' and ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', but they still had advanced technology until the end of ''XY''. [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] rejoined them in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', at the end of the ''Decolora Adventure!'' arc, and accompanied them to [[Kalos]] in ''XY'' and [[Alola]] in ''Sun & Moon'' as an effective fourth member of the group to steal rare Pokémon from those regions. Despite once again being comic relief, Jessie and James seem to have become much better at battling, immediately posing a challenge to Ash and his friends several times. Giovanni also continued to support them; he no longer admonished them for their failures and relied on them to accomplish Team Rocket's work in Kalos and Alola. However, Team Rocket had no presence in Kalos and Alola other than Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet. Starting in ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', they have lived in a {{an|Bewear}}'s den on Alola's [[Melemele Island]]. In ''[[SM018|A Seasoned Search!]]'', they finished building a secret Team Rocket base inside the den. | The trio returned fully to their previous role as comic relief in the ''Decolora Adventure!'' arc, roles they continued to retain during ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'' and ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', but they still had advanced technology until the end of ''XY''.

In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', the trio | In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', the trio operated out of a base hidden underground in [[Vermilion City]] and travelled to different parts of the world searching for new Pokémon to steal. During this series, they were equipped with new tools, most notably a [[Rotom Phone]] and the [[Rocket Prize Master]], a capsule toy machine that provided them with Pokémon from Team Rocket's stock. As a result of this, they did not use their own Pokémon for the majority of the series, though Giovanni did eventually send them back the Pokémon they had stored at the {{an|Team Rocket HQ}} close to the end of the series in ''[[JN145|Rocket Revengers!]]''. | ||

Many other members of Team Rocket have appeared besides the aforementioned boss and the trio, most of them are field agents as well. In addition, at least in the dub, one of these members, [[Domino]], implies that Team Rocket had agents in even the most innoculous places such as a university. A recurring duo who are rivals with Jessie and James, [[Cassidy]] and [[Butch]], show up from time to time. This pair reports to [[Dr. Namba]], rather than Giovanni directly. As revealed in ''[[JN095|The Good, The Bad, and The Lucky!]]'', however, Cassidy and Butch have since left Team Rocket and gone their separate ways. | Many other members of Team Rocket have appeared besides the aforementioned boss and the trio, most of them are field agents as well.
