amidamaru Posted November 18, 2002 Posted November 18, 2002 I guess the only reason I like pokemon is Team Rocket. But not Jessie and James, mind you. I had the chance to read a manga called "Red R" at a friend's house, and that doujinshi focused on a darker TR side. Reeeeeeaaaally good :D Unfortunately, I haven't found any other Red R manga anywhere, maybe you've seen it around?
Imp Posted November 20, 2002 Posted November 20, 2002 Team rocket is an evil gang, but I think its members are cool! The only thing is, Jessie and James keep saying that motto... [COLOR=deeppink]Prepare for trouble![/COLOR] [COLOR=sky blue]And make it double![/COLOR] [COLOR=deeppink]To protect the world from devastation...[/COLOR] [COLOR=sky blue]To unite all peoples within our nation...[/COLOR] [COLOR=deeppink]To denounce the evils of truth and love...[/COLOR] [COLOR=sky blue]To extend our reach to the stars above...[/COLOR] [COLOR=deeppink]Jessie![/COLOR] [COLOR=sky blue]James![/COLOR] [COLOR=deeppink]Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light![/COLOR] [COLOR=sky blue]Surrender now or prepare to fight![/COLOR] [COLOR=limegreen]Meowth! That's right![/COLOR] Hmmm... who knows how they got that talking Meowth in there... And then there's Butch and Cassidy, Jessie and James' rivals. I saw them in a few episodes, such as the fake breeding center episode (forgot its name), Pikachu Re-Volts (the Orange Islands episode with Drowzee), and the Johto episode with the fake astrology book (forgot its name). Anyway, thay have that Raticate... RRRRAAAATICATE!!!
G/S/B Master Posted November 20, 2002 Posted November 20, 2002 Jesse and James vs Butch and Cassidy war is always funny. [quote] James: Hey it's Botch! Butch: It's Butch!!!!! [/quote] The orange Island is the MOST HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!!! Because those 4 is on a motto war LOL!!!!I forgot B and C's motto. I would think Team Rocket is funny instead of evil.I mean c'mon! I wonder what happened to the Black Tulip in the Mewtwo returns movie...
amidamaru Posted November 20, 2002 Author Posted November 20, 2002 I think my absolute favorite is Giovanni. He's evil, powerful and rich, and he's got such a kewl story xD And who can forget the Dan'in? You know, the little unknown members dressed in black, I think they're adorable =)
Makai Kite Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 There are some Rocket members in the radio drama for Mewtwo Strikes Back (in Japanese)... there are Madame Boss, Miyamoto (Jesse/Musashi's mother), and Domino (a younger member, about 13, probably).
amidamaru Posted November 28, 2002 Author Posted November 28, 2002 Madame Boss and Miyamoto don't appear in that radio drama, they appear in "It's a white tomorrow, Rocket Gang!". That's where lots of the questions about Jessie's past are answered. What a tragic story it is, too :O
Solo Tremaine Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 They do appear in Myuustu no Tanjo. They're both in the first part, and Madame Boss gives Miyamoto her mission. From then on in, all we hear is Miyamoto every now and again in the mountains looking for Mew. I can't remember Butch and Cassidy's motto either. It was 'nastier', though. I know one of the lines was 'Surrender to us now or you'll surely lose the fight!', which didn't really fit. I liked Team Roket's song. Not just 'It's a White Tomorrow', but also Team Rocket's Rockin, from the dub series. It's cool!
Makai Kite Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 There's a Japanese version of Team Rocket's Rockin... Rocket Dan Yo Eien Ni/Rocket Team Forever. But the English version is completely different. Here are the translated lyrics for the Japanese version... If there is darkness at the end of the universe, Let us show you the light! Run! Sparkle! Show how you shine! (That's right!) Love is justice, justice is evil, A recurring trick of drama. Look! We are the stars of this play! Tomorrow will be our day for Pokémon! There is a light at the end of the universe. There you will find our faces. Musashi! Kojiro! And Nyasu! (Quiet, you!) (Ouch!) (Our song!) (What are you doing?) Dreams are reality? Reality will be a nightmare, Once we assume command. Watch! We open a flower! Tomorrow will be our day for Pokémon! (Meow!) Soil is the Earth. The Earth is Nya-su (nice). And we'd all eat some nasu (eggplant), were it up to Nyasu. From the bottom, To the bottom, The Earth is to turn. One time, two times, three times and, lots of whirling, Four times, five times, six times, and, steadily increasing, ii kanji! But before that, seven times thump, thud, cue! The usual thud!

Ya na kanji! Kyuu kuu Tou tou Ya na kanji! But that won't stop us, we are dauntless! The sky's the limit! We'll prove it! How?! How?!?! How?!?!?! Answer. It's our duty. No, no.... Shall we do it?

amidamaru Posted November 29, 2002 Author Posted November 29, 2002 Dude, that's one tres kewl theme song xD
iggy Posted November 29, 2002 Posted November 29, 2002 That theme song is pretty good compared to the american ones They suck the only one I actually like was the JLC and the Original theme song
amidamaru Posted November 29, 2002 Author Posted November 29, 2002 I'm dying to get my claws on that CD Drama. The thing is, it costs about 50 bucks at amazon.com, and I ain't got money to pay for it xP Anyone know where I might find japanese TR sites? o.O
Solo Tremaine Posted November 29, 2002 Posted November 29, 2002 Go to: [URL]http://members.tripod.com/~pmtranslation/bom.html[/URL]. It's the first and best translation of both of the Pokemon CD Dramas (Team Rocket Forever- It's a White Tomorrow! and Myuutsu no Tanjo). Excellent site, which is well worth visiting. There's a little pull-down menu at the bottom which directs you to where you want to go.
Makai Kite Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 I used to have Rocket Dan Yo Eien Ni on my system a while ago, but I lost it. I lost quite a few Pokemon songs... *shrugs* I don't know how, either.
amidamaru Posted December 1, 2002 Author Posted December 1, 2002 I remember I once saw a set of plushies. TR plushies. It was Musashi, Kojiro, Nyasu and a random Dan'in on ebay.com. You can find amazing things in there xD
