+ | ==Summary== |
||
+ | There are even more Team Rocket mottos, that have only been said in one episode - because they tend to change it, or have failed. Also, they usually have 'copied phrases', when a 'good person' asks a question; and if one of their team members are not at presence, one of the trio fills in for that person (e.g. Jessie has a cold, then James fills her line...). |

Summary
There are even more Team Rocket mottos, that have only been said in one episode - because they tend to change it, or have failed. Also, they usually have 'copied phrases', when a 'good person' asks a question; and if one of their team members are not at presence, one of the trio fills in for that person (e.g. Jessie has a cold, then James fills her line...).
