HOW DID I FORGET HOW GOOD THIS IS? Seriously, it's almost up there with Holy Matrimony and definitely number two in my top 5 list. It further proves my point that Team Rocket are not really bad guys and are actually intended to be good guys in their own ridiculously elaborate story that just so ( Read more... )

like this, i'd rather write pointless things, although i need to go to sleep

Okay, that was a fantastic article. I just saw the episode where Jessie was at the Chansey school, and my friends and I were just like "We feel more for Jessie than we EVER did for Ash! Team Rocket FTW!" Thanks for the great read!

Thank you very much and it's no problem! I agree that they're a lot more sympathetic and realistic than any of the other main cast, and I've always loved them for that.

Team Rocket ftw. :')

Seriously, I thought I was kinda weird for, like, sympathizing with TR for a looong time but idk, it makes sense.
Because every time they have an episode with their back stories, I feel sooooo bad for them. ):

And James is adorable. <3

Well their lives just suck so much that it's hard NOT to sympathize with them, really. Poor guys ): I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels really bad for them

and James is probably the cutest thing on tv haha

You've definitely been friended back. And thanks! They've been my favorite people on tv since the show started. It's nice to find other fans~

Also, I am totally in love with this icon

This is great!! I stopped watching Pokemon a few years ago... mainly when the new cast hit the show. I watched that first show in horror. Now I only watch episodes that deal with our "heroes" past. I'm sure I've missed a few too. I never got to see the huge clip of Jessie in that singing band and not going along with her nerd looking boyfriend in English.

I have a couple of questions... Did they ever come outright in the show (or CD drama) that Jessie never met her father/he left her and her mom? And did they ever come outright in the same above and say that James was bullied in school? (it's been a LONG time, so they may have in the older episodes but I haven't seen those in forever!!)

And, what are your top 5 episodes?? XD

I'm adding you as a friend... I need Team Rocket friends to discuss things with. Mainly where to watch the newest Japanese episodes with English subs. Yay. Oh, and thanks for writing this super essay!!!

i actually haven't watched anything (other than chronicles) after season 5, so i haven't taken any of the things that they've revealed since then into account. i'd like to say it's just because i like to stick with the original writers but really the voice acting has gotten so horrific in the later english seasons that i gave up. i've been thinking about watching it in japanese though, because all of the new backstory sounds really interesting! let me know if you can find a good place to watch the new episodes subbed ( ... )
