Pokémon’s iconic villain Team Rocket has disbanded, for now, in the recent episode of the Pokémon anime, Pokémon Journeys: The Series.
Team Rocket’s iconic villains Jessie and James have spent decades chasing after Ash and his Pikachu, and getting up to all sorts of double trouble. With Ash retiring, I guess there’s no better time for Jessie, James, and Meowth to break up the band.
The latest episode of Pokémon Journeys: The Series aired in Japan last week, and that’s where Ash foiled Team Rocket’s hijinks for the last time. Naturally, Team Rocket had to go out big — trying to catch Pikachu. All of Team Rocket’s past Pokémon return for a big reunion battle, after which Team Rocket ultimately gets blasted off into the sunset for what appears to be the last time: All three — Jessie, James, and Meowth — agree that it’s time to move on without each other.
