Info incoming.

The title is of course a reference to the Rocket Gang Secret Empire radio show from back in the gen 5 days.)

"Get us more Rocket Gang members on a worldwide level!" Having received this order from their boss Sakaki, Musashi, Kojiro, Nyarth and Sonansu start a radio show to recruit new members. They're really enthused about hw this show will tell the world of the Rocket gang's greatness and get new members, but believe it or not, they get absolutely zero listeners... Deciding that thing aren't going to end like this, the Rocket Gang members go about creating fun radio with such enthusiasm they forget the actual reason they were supposed to make it, so they...?!

Very excited for this. Bought some of the old CDs on Amazon and they are really entertaining. Love all the ways they are playing with the TRio’s episodes this series.

You know what?

Pokemon Anime fans as in general do not have a 25th episode special cause like I said I think and it's really clear right now this whole season it's the 25th anyversary.

But us Team Rocket fans we have our own special and maybe it's not at the best time for Team Rocket but whatever, let's enjoy this.

And by the way... There is Team Rocket for a loooot of time as long as our friend Ash runs, Team Rocket will run alongside so no haters they aren't going anywhere.

Team Rocket surpassed Brock, Serena, and others it's really clear they will surpass Goh too. Sorry Goh fans and by the way they will surpass the gatcha too.

So let's enjoy this Eight months left, cause I see the end of the tunnel here. Eight months and a new era begins.

In my country of all places... Ahhh I hope that the world has not crumbled by then.

It will be even great if the episode ends with pikachu zapping them and having them blast off since that's what happened in there debut episode as well.

It's about damn time the TRio show up again, I'm glad the gap between focus episodes was smaller than last time. Their episodes are still fun, I just can't wait for them to improve in the next saga since things of note like captures/evolutions/new moves will happen again

The April 1st 1 hour special is specifically said to commemorate the anniversary.

You will agree with me that while not bad at all in fact it seems to be two good episodes.

A 25th anniversary episode could have been much more.... special to say the least.

But I remember the 20th aniversary episode and episode 1000, and well... it's a trending on not knowing what to do for special dates.

Only 10th aniverary episode was somewhat special.

Yeah, I like they're doing a lot of call backs to the TRio's old stuff this series.

At the same time though, I kinda want it to amount to something too. They haven't really been given anything ongoing to do like in BW or SM, or even DP and XY with Jessie's performance arcs. Even too-good-to-be-true stuff like Gigantamax Meowth only got one appearance for a gag.

Well Episode 1000 has Lillie overcoming her phobia (by TPC Japan) and Kukui and Burnet's wedding (by TPC International), which were two major episodes, so not that bad.

Hopefully the previous two episodes and this one are also good episodes.

For those who don't have the reference, the Team Rocket radio show (Rocket Dan’s Secret Empire) was a weekly real radio show created by the sound director of the Pokémon anime: Masafumi Mima and the voice actors of Jessie, James and Meowth ; that aired on Inter FM in Japan in 2012 to revive the TRio Rocket during the BW period because the voice actors of Team Rocket had been disappointed with the exaggerated villain roles of their characters which they deemed OOC and because they wanted them to appear more often in the series such as during the OS AG, DP era.
