Team Rocket Gets a New Look + Pokemon Sunday Preview + Even More Anime News! (UPD)

Hey PokéJunglers!

ozymandis here yet again with a small but at the same time BIG change for the “Pokemon: Best Wishes!” anime! Our once badass as heck villians now turned hilarious and not so evil, get a new loook! This is from the official Pokemon anime website and, the pictures comes with a description. Apparently they finally got promoted to being “Advanced Members” and are the top Team Rocket members in the Isshu region. (So i’m guessing that they are the only Team Rocket members in Isshu? ><) Also, it says that they have the mission of bringing the Isshu region down using the power of Team Rocket.

Also- the TV Tokyo website has updated saying that on September 12th Pokemon Sunday will air a special episode PACKED with Black and White information! Allthough we might get this information leaked to us before the actual airing so we shouldn’t expect to much. The episode will also feature a special guest named  Junichi Masuda, who, for those of you who don’t know,  is one of the three big minds behind Pokemon along with Sugimori and Tajiri. Not to mention that he was last on the show to reveal the Zoroark silohuette! So it might actually be some really big info!

Also just found this video on youtube! It aired right after the new Pokemon episode aired, it shows all the starter pokemon in action! 😀 Thanks to Kriffix for the heads up.

it shows:

  • Tsutaaja’s Vine Whips comes from it’s collar (who would’ve thought? ><)
  • Confirms Ash getting Mijumaru (Mijumaru’s cry… so cute!)
  • Mijumaru’s Shell Blade in action, also it using the shell as a shield
  • Tsutaaja knows Attract and is a female
  • Yanappu’s Bullet Seed
  • Tsutaaja is against Pikachu so therefore, it is either Dento’s or Shooty’s

So with that, any opinions on the costume change? I personally don’t mind it and thinks it looks awesome! 😀 I mean I was always confused as to why Jessie’s and Jame’s outfits were white in the anime but all the grunt’s outfits were black in the video game…>>; Also, what do you think they’ll show in Pokemon Sunday? Comment down below!

peace and love–ozymandis

    • The Pokemon Musical information is for this Sunday.
      Junichi Masuda will go on Pokemon Sunday on September 12th in two Sunday’s, it is the final Sunday before the release of B/W in Japan^_^

      (Keep in mind they may reveal new information this week on the Pokemon Musical’s but it is being kept secret).
      Also we may get hint’s to the September 12th episode at the end of this week’s episode when they preview next week’s episode^_^

  1. Hey Ozy, Check FB, I linked to one with Giovanni~

    *EDIT*
    You don’t seem to be on so I added it. Let me know if you want it back.
    Some guys on 2ch are joking around saying that Giovanni got demoted lol.

  2. Well it’s about time. Am I the only one thinking they were updated because Team Rocket will (most likely) never reappear in the games? All of the games featuring them have been remade … Either way I love their new looks!~

  4. Going by the clues, It’s almost certain that Shooty will get the Tsutaaja. It be cool if later on Dent gets one too though~ Suits him big time.

  5. almost everybody likes tsutarja, but 4 me, i liked mijumaru from the begining, and i usually choose the starter that ash chooses, so..i will choose mijumaru!

  6. “The episode will also feature a special guest named Junichi Masuda, who, for those of you who don’t know…”

    …Is one of the final bosses of Game Freak. He started out composing the soundtrack of Red/Green, and nowadays is responsible for the production and directing of the main series and — I think — also approval of new pokémon/NPC designs.

    How come you didn’t know that, Pokéjungle? ~___~

      • ahah well i’m actually probably even nerdier as you guys >< , but i always seem to foget junichi's name. xDD
        i always remember sugimori and tajiri but i can never remember junichi

        junichijunichijunichijunichijunichijunichijunichijunichi

      • Well. Ash has been confirmed to have Mijumaru.
        Pokabu has been seen running around in the gym, so he might get that too.
        And for all we know the Tsutaja could be wild?
        Although I doubt it, Ash does have the possibility of getting all 3 starters?

        Again, I doubt it. He’ll probably just stick with our cute and lovable otter friend. <3
        😀

        • Shooty will almost definitely have a Tsutaaja.

          He’s also a trainer starting out in Kanako town and will need one of the 3 starters. And since the other two are taken it’s pretty much certain.

          • Then who does N get. I saw in a video he had one pokemon. I know this isn’t the game but he will definitley be making an anime appearance. I don’t think it will be a generic Pokemon. Sorry but I’ve been thinking about this for a while.

          • Well. There was a lot of starter sharing in D/P
            Dawn, Barry, and Kenny had Piplup.
            Ash and Paul had Turtwig (although we only ever saw Paul’s as a Torterra)
            If Shooty has Tsutaja, it doesn’t necessarily mean that none of our other main characters can’t have Tsutaja either. I would love to see Dento get it. <3

  7. I always loved those black outfits that cassidy butch were wearing, it made them look special.
    Although these doen’t really look pure black,. more like a dark grey blue puple’ish color.

  8. People here are saying that Ash isn’t going to get Tsutaaja, but to be honest, I think he will. It’s great that he’s definately getting Mijumaru, that actually made me really happy, but I’m thinking that there’s a high chance of Ash getting all three starters like before. I dunno, I mean, Dento does seem like he will be fairly Grass-oriented, but his signature Pokemon is obviously Yanappu, and likewise for Iris, hers is Kibago. I obviously don’t have any evidence for this other than a gut feeling, but I think it would be cool if that happened again =)

    However, lets go on the assumption that Ash doesn’t get all of the starters and instead only gets Mijumaru, and Shooti or whoever gets Tsutaaja – who will get Pokabu in that case?

  9. Ooh….does this mean badass team rocket is returning? 😮

    Getting promoted is a big thing….. especially considering these guys aren’t really promotion worthy….

  10. Forget Jessie and James, look at Giovanni! He’s been turned into a train conductor! *cough*asexytrainconductor*cough* Much better than the bright orange suit, yuck.

  11. Damnit i always said ever since that manga was shown saying tsutarja learns vinewhipe, that it would come from its yellow collar! I wish someone would give me credit for actually having a smart and good guess that day… 🙁
