What do you think stands out as Team Rocket's biggest failure? Let us know in the comments! For more Pokemon, check out our playlist!: ua-cam.com/video/1WkBoTps6uM/v-deo.html
For me, it has to be the time in Unova that Team Rocket and their boss Giovanni battled against Ash and his friends and Ash proves to be too strong for them and saved Meloetta and the Forces of Nature (Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus).
Honestly there were just so many good moments with team rocket that it is impossible for me to pick, they have just been such amazing characters, from their time in black and white showing their more serious and terrifyingly professional sides, to them giving Ash and his friends a run for their money with a particular mech that had their original Double Trouble song playing in the background. Edit: I just remembered the episode for the latter that I was talking about. Look for the episode A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!
It really breaks my heart, knowing we won't see these three stooges again. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we'll all miss them like parting with old friends
Not sure if this has been done yet, but how about: Top 10 times Team Rocket were the Good Guys OR Top 10 times Team Rocket were friends/allies to Ash & Frends
@@nickcorrales8172 Ditto. When I saw those suggestions, I thought of "Pokémon Shipwreck," "The Ghost of Maiden's Peak," "Pokémon the Movie 2000," "Pokémon 3: The Movie," and "Pokémon: Mewtwo Returns."
@@BowserMovies1989 - Another example is when Ash helped Team Rocket specifically James train Cacnea to learn Drain Punch, also the episode where Team Rocket free the Ekans & Koffing from the Poacher, releasing Arbok & Weezing while Jessie, James & Meowrh try to fend off a Tyranitar to buy Arbok & Weezing time to escape with the Ekans & Koffing. These episodes always force the waterworks 😢😢😢😭😭😭
@tdog - It was definitely Drain Punch, that episode is one of my absolute favorites, and I have James' heartbreaking speech memorized James: Remember what you said? About Cacnea having high hopes? Gardenia: Yes. And I still do James: Cacnea this is where we part... please go with the Gym Leader Meowth: WHAT ARE YA DOING!? James: Cacnea needs a great trainer to learn how to use Drain Punch... but it's not me. You've got to go! To be your best! (Cacnea protests) James: No! Go away! (Cacnea deflates for a few seconds before accepting that this is what's best) James (In his head): That's my Cacnea. I'll always remember our time together... the sad times... and the joyous of times too... return... and goodbye! Not gonna lie, just writing it all down has me in tears 😅
@@JP_Loco_93 The sting of that episode even carried on much into the next, where James was so depressed by leaving Cacnea behind Jessie and Meowth planned to steal the twerps' pokemon (and ironically they were caught in the act by James who immediately saw right through it)
Two fights I always loved from Team Rocket: 1) Once There Were Greenfields. James wants to prove to Gardenia he can raise Cacnea well and recruits Ash to help it learn Drain Punch. It was close, but Cacnea put everything it had into trying to win. It was a real tear-jerker of an episode. 2) Wobbu-Palooza! The battle with Ego always overshadows this battle. This episode is where Team Rocket were the good guys and helped defend a village of Wobbuffet trainers who wouldn’t fight back due to festival rules. Team Rocket didn’t care about the rules and Wobbuffet saved the day!
My favourite Team Rocket battles where the showdowns they’d have in Orange Island and Johto when Jessie & James would use Arbok, Weezing, Victreebel and Lickitung or / Wobbuffet
@@sthepcorms6747 The only good thing that happened to Ash was reuniting with his Pidgeot. No reunion with his dad, no catching recurring Latias, no reunion with his Primeape, nothing. Team Rocket finally getting off his back would be nice. Jessie, James, and Meowth would be nice people, have jobs as scientists, and become respected and not increase crime rate wherever Ash and Pikachu goes
The battle between Team Rocket and Ash, May, and Brock in "Do I Hear A Ralts?" was iconic too! I think Team Rocket actually defeated them in that battle iirc. 😂
The mispronunciation of Butch makes me laugh. The rocket gang being in the Alolan league was a great change of pace. The gang is significantly stronger than the entirety of Team Rocket's organization, and they kept proving it. Hell, they were absolutely at their strongest in Alola. Whoever their replacements are in the new series have some hellishly huge boots to fill.
I was wondering when are they going to upload something Team Rocket related like, "Top 10/20 Stupidest Team Rocket Moments" or "Top 10/20 Times Team Rocket Almost Won"
Yeah everyone was randomly clever in that faceoff. The twerps seen through Team Rocket's disguise, Ash even exposing Meowth a clever way by scanning him with his Pokedex, and then Team Rocket bring out ALL their Pokemon and use all their signature moves strategically. Oh, and James ducks away from Cacnea glomping him. XD
What? Lickitungs first battle is not shown? It is one of the best fights, fair and square, and so nice to see Pikachu getting kicked in the ass with so much ease. :D
The battle with James and Venusaur vs. Ash and Cyndaquil in the Johto episodes was a really good one. It showcased James' prowess as a grass pokemon trainer really well and it was great to see. So seeing James get himself a grass pokemon every gen was a nice nod to that.
Not actually a fan of them but I'm still interested in them. They're funny, sometimes skillful in their plans and the moments of them with their Pokemon are really wholesome and emotional. Three of them with Ash and Pikachu are iconic in Pokemon anime a long time. Gonna miss them all
Wow someone requested and we got it.. can we get another team rocket best moments, coz jessie actually nailed in kalos queen semis and also the post team flare episode and dustox farewell episode, and the black and white episodes till the plan failed to get tornadus thundurus and landorus
Huh I thought there would have been Jessie’s time in Kalos during the showcases. And what about the times they worked with Looker against Galactic and Plasma? And against Team Skull, Magma, Aqua, and Flare?
Do now the the top 20 funniest Pokemon Running Gags, Like Victreebel eating James or Jessie's Wobbuffet popping out of nowhere from his pokeball. Or Ash's Gible accidentally hitting Piplup with his Draco Meteor. 😂😂😂😂
I always actually liked Team Rocket more than Ash, Misty and Brock. They had some interesting back stories and I know they were criminals but they were lovable/incompetent criminals.
I don’t know what the new series is going to do now that team rocket won’t be around. Scarlet and Violet didn’t really have an actual villainous team for players to contend with.
I can't remember which season but there were a few episodes Jessie & James were actually Formidable. Of course they weren't trying to catch Pikachu in those either.
I have a soft spot for the Meowth vs Pikachu one shot battle in the Pokeball factory episode, simply because it's the ONE TIME EVER that Meowth fought Pikachu and got in some damage.
every time i see/hear season 1 of pokemon i cringe from how im reminded how old ive gotten when the anime came to America i was only a month and 1 day old
You forgot to mention Team Rocket's seriousness and their menacing one up wins against the team on Pokémon: Black & White like the time when Meowth tricks Ash, Cilian and Iris believing he was on their side until he actually stolen all the Pokemon from the center. Plus Jesse andJames had awesome escape plan instead of blasting off.
Hey, WatchMojo. How about you guys do a list of the Top 20 Cutest Pokemon? I can give you a couple examples of these cute pokemon you must mention. Examples: Eevee Jigglypuff Oshawott Emolga Piplup Togepi Dedenne Teddiursa Pichu Cubchoo Skitty Pachirisu What do you think? Please do this list, WatchMojo!
Nothing for 'Fury Swipes of Love' in Diamond and Pearl series? Or the random intense as hell battle they put up in 'Do I Hear a Ralts'? Or a large amount of their Black and White face offs?
another highlight battle for these guys was when they saved the wobuffett festival symbol when those crooks were destroying it and sure they tried to steal the food from those same people but it’s the thought that counts
Jessie's Yanmega is deffinetly a honorable mention it almost sent Ash and company blasting off. It sucks it we get team rocket renuited their team earlier in aim to be a pokemon master would have been so fun to see how they utilized their full teams.
They were really good in ghost train episodes of black and white. The whole meowth changing sides led up to that even thought it was predictable it was fun to watch how their plan worked in the part1 episode.
Team Rocket was only chasing after Pikachu because they refused to admit that they lost to just a regular Pikachu. NOTHING WILL GET ME TO CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT THIS!
The irony is that by the end of the series and constantly setting up schemes where Pikachu buffed up, they actually ended up making themselves RIGHT about him. Pikachu is taking out LEGENDARIES by the later series. Most of the supporting characters even talk about his 'unusual power' the same way Team Rocket did originally.
PLEASE make a video focusing on Serena. She’s my favorite character in Pokémon and she deserves to have a video focused on her. I’m really upset that the Pokémon anime ended without Ash and Serena growing up and getting married and fans of AshxMisty REALLY piss me off!

James’ battle with every Pokémon he’s ever had that keeps attacking him still stays with me to this day.
Omg your here lol.
The episode they release Arbok and Weezing still breaks me even as an adult
Legit 😢
@@darkhumor1259 I rewatched it the other day still 😢
Team rocket could've easily made a fortune through a 'Pokemon who can talk show'

@@justinsullivan8250 Don't compare out good anime (Dragon Ball) with a bad one (Pokemon).
@@bacd-nn2lg Come on man. Pokémon ain’t a bad anime. It’s lasted for more then two decades so who are we to complain about it’s success.
Duu we needa whole revamp of them 😂😂😂. They remind me of every encounter in my own life. Jesse and james! Legendary stalkers! ✨
It really breaks my heart, knowing we won't see these three stooges again. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we'll all miss them like parting with old friends

Thanks for the birthday gift WatchMojo! Team Rocket are my favorite characters in Pokémon. ❤ My fave of the TRio is even on the thumbnail! 😄
Happy birthday. I literally had a birthday yesterday
Happy Belated Birthday

Even the people at WatchMojo are saying Butch's name wrong🤣
My favourite Team Rocket battles where the showdowns they’d have in Orange Island and Johto when Jessie & James would use Arbok, Weezing, Victreebel and Lickitung or / Wobbuffet
I still think the final Ash & Pikachu episode should've had them quitting Team Rocket and stopped following Ash & Pikachu
Me too. I don't know why the anime is obsessed with them doing what they always been doing since Pokemon Emergency
They didn't do that because of a simple reason, merchandise, they still want to use it Team Rocket products
@@sthepcorms6747 The only good thing that happened to Ash was reuniting with his Pidgeot. No reunion with his dad, no catching recurring Latias, no reunion with his Primeape, nothing.

The battle between Team Rocket and Ash, May, and Brock in "Do I Hear A Ralts?" was iconic too! I think Team Rocket actually defeated them in that battle iirc. 😂
I think two Team Rocket fight I remember was First time defeating Ash in Aloha and the Pokemon poacher who had Eakens and Koffing.
The mispronunciation of Butch makes me laugh.

Who agrees that Pokemon is one of the most nostalgic series a series can be
I was wondering when are they going to upload something Team Rocket related like, "Top 10/20 Stupidest Team Rocket Moments" or "Top 10/20 Times Team Rocket Almost Won"
The tag battle against Ash and Brock in Battle Frontier where they were given a Charizard and Aggron.
The beginning of Do I Hear A Ralts is one the BEST Team Rocket battles ever! Everyone goes ALL OUT!
Yeah everyone was randomly clever in that faceoff. The twerps seen through Team Rocket's disguise, Ash even exposing Meowth a clever way by scanning him with his Pokedex, and then Team Rocket bring out ALL their Pokemon and use all their signature moves strategically. Oh, and James ducks away from Cacnea glomping him. XD
Fun fact: Eric Stuart started voicing James from Episode 3.
What? Lickitungs first battle is not shown? It is one of the best fights, fair and square, and so nice to see Pikachu getting kicked in the ass with so much ease. :D
2 honorable mentions are:
-When arbok and weezing evolved
-When team rocket came back to the unova region from Kanto and got frillish and amoongus
Team Rocket are like the Wile E. Coyote of the Pokémon franchise.
The battle with James and Venusaur vs. Ash and Cyndaquil in the Johto episodes was a really good one. It showcased James' prowess as a grass pokemon trainer really well and it was great to see. So seeing James get himself a grass pokemon every gen was a nice nod to that.
Jesse and “John” got me weak 😂 the disrespect
I love the 10 Team Rocket battles in Pokémon.
I cried when Jesse and James let Arbok and Weezing go
Whenever they show up it makes for a more enjoyable time. Some of the most iconic characters in anime history.
Wobbuffet is truly the greatest, it countered a special attack..
0:49 i died laughing LMAO , Butch finally said it on purpose because James been calling him wrong name on purpose.
“You said it wrong on purpose” got me dying 😂😂😂
Team Rocket, classic trio and also they have been good guys and help Ash out a handful at times.
One of my favourite battles is when James enter the Lillypad contest dressed as Jessie and beat Dawn in a battle.
When Meowth used those buckets of water that was such a cheat way
😂loved it so much !!*
Only thing missing 😂 is how Jessie caught Seviper 😂😂🖤 .
At this point, there is no better and persistent rival for ash and his companions than team rocket.
I was gonna say how Meowth fought Barry's Empoleon was gonna be here
Unpopular opinion: I like Team rocket (Jesse and James) over Ash. I was always secretly rooting for them when I was younger. 😅
I miss when Jessie and James had arbok and weezing !
Not actually a fan of them but I'm still interested in them. They're funny, sometimes skillful in their plans and the moments of them with their Pokemon are really wholesome and emotional. Three of them with Ash and Pikachu are iconic in Pokemon anime a long time. Gonna miss them all
You should make a Top 10 Pokemon Boss Fantasies. Those were always some of the funniest parts of the show.
Wow someone requested and we got it.. can we get another team rocket best moments, coz jessie actually nailed in kalos queen semis and also the post team flare episode and dustox farewell episode, and the black and white episodes till the plan failed to get tornadus thundurus and landorus
Man the best battle of Team Rocket is during the Orange Islands saga. When they battle against Butch and Cassidy’s Drowzee.
Huh I thought there would have been Jessie’s time in Kalos during the showcases. And what about the times they worked with Looker against Galactic and Plasma? And against Team Skull, Magma, Aqua, and Flare?
Them saving those kids from their replacements will always be my favourite moment
Amazing video of team rocket Pokémon battles in the anime,watch mojo, fantastic job.
I always love the team rocket prepare to fight!
Do now the the top 20 funniest Pokemon Running Gags, Like Victreebel eating James or Jessie's Wobbuffet popping out of nowhere from his pokeball. Or Ash's Gible accidentally hitting Piplup with his Draco Meteor. 😂😂😂😂

Can’t you do a top ten yugioh list? It’s been 2 years since you did one!
Love them honestly I have to talk about James voice change in later seasons I think the accent suets him better then it did in the first season
Very surprising that WM has a top 10 all about Team Rocket
I can't remember which season but there were a few episodes Jessie & James were actually Formidable. Of course they weren't trying to catch Pikachu in those either.
I have a soft spot for the Meowth vs Pikachu one shot battle in the Pokeball factory episode, simply because it's the ONE TIME EVER that Meowth fought Pikachu and got in some damage.
#3 will ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE
Team rocket blasting off forever😢😭
Releasing Arbok and Weezing to protect Ekans and Koffing is a tearful and painful decision
We’re going to need
Top 10 list for
All time Pokémon moments/episodes also for each
And 10 each for its generation
every time i see/hear season 1 of pokemon i cringe from how im reminded how old ive gotten when the anime came to America i was only a month and 1 day old
I'll truly miss them 😭
There a few missing
Pikachu vs mimikyu (pre trial that nanu came up with in sun and moon)
“Jessalina”(James) vs Dawn
Jessie(with Aipom) vs Dawn
You forgot to mention Team Rocket's seriousness and their menacing one up wins against the team on Pokémon: Black & White like the time when Meowth tricks Ash, Cilian and Iris believing he was on their side until he actually stolen all the Pokemon from the center. Plus Jesse andJames had awesome escape plan instead of blasting off.
I hope we can see arbok and weezing again one day
I’m so impressed with Team Rocket in the ralts episode. That was one of my favorite moments!
8:50 oh and yes forget about how they have won after catching Yanma and evolving it into Yanmega....

Fennekin is so cute
We will miss Ash, Pikachu, James, Jessie, Meowth and Wobbuffet always!!!
Am going to miss team rocket
Nothing for 'Fury Swipes of Love' in Diamond and Pearl series? Or the random intense as hell battle they put up in 'Do I Hear a Ralts'? Or a large amount of their Black and White face offs?
After the arcs they went through in Alola, they were done so dirty in Galar.
didn't put the Chimecho episode with James??
Countering the special attack gotta love the anime
My favourite Team Rocket moment is their redemption in “The Power of One”.
Butch and Cassidy are my favs ☺️
Butch? Don't you mean Bruce?

Are you sure it's not Beef?
@@forrestannis909 Who knows... I still remember him as Buffy though
The way Tracey called him that sounded like he did that on purpose!😂 I laughed so hard at that part I had to keep it paused until I stopped laughing.
another highlight battle for these guys was when they saved the wobuffett festival symbol when those crooks were destroying it and sure they tried to steal the food from those same people but it’s the thought that counts
Man I feel like you missed Team rocket vs Team Flare (battle for Z2) that was shockingly good
Team rocket's Pokemon joined them after they treated them nice.
Jessie's Yanmega is deffinetly a honorable mention it almost sent Ash and company blasting off. It sucks it we get team rocket renuited their team earlier in aim to be a pokemon master would have been so fun to see how they utilized their full teams.
They were really good in ghost train episodes of black and white. The whole meowth changing sides led up to that even thought it was predictable it was fun to watch how their plan worked in the part1 episode.
Yeah the episode in battle frontier where they steal an aggron and a charizard and use those to fight was pretty cool
Even watchmojo can't say Biffs name right? Oh great now I'm forgetting his name!!!
God bless all who see this

Did the got any major development in this series, because I watched over 1200 episodes of Pokemon anime and didn't saw anything at all.
@@bacd-nn2lg watch he movies too youll be suprised how many times they saved the day
Never noticed but Cassidy sounds like Mai Valentine
It's honestly impressive they aren't dead.
Love James Cacnea my favorite Pokémon of his
This is so true still with the Pokémon anime still ending with ash Ketchum and Pikachu
princess vs princess episode & Punchy pokemon episode and also in ultimate test episode we can see some good battling stuff
PLEASE make a video focusing on Serena. She’s my favorite character in Pokémon and she deserves to have a video focused on her. I’m really upset that the Pokémon anime ended without Ash and Serena growing up and getting married and fans of AshxMisty REALLY piss me off!
Y’all if we had a top ten for Jessie’s abuse I’d watch all day!
I think Battle at the Viridian Gym was the best Team Rocket battle.
What about one of the latest episodes where almost all their pokemon left behind return?? We can finally see their true fighting skills!!
Team Rocket vs Team Plasma should be number 1. Despite the episodes never air until now. 😅
I thought for sure the number 1 would be Mimikyu vs Pikachu
What about the Battle with Mimikyu when Team Rocket used it’s Z-Move for the first time.
