And here come team rocket to ruining the fun.

Uhhh have you been missing every promo that shows team rocket in a forest with bewear and mimikyu? This wasn't surprising at all. This will probably be the episode they catch them. Hence why mimikyu was battling pikachu.

Makes you wonder whats so special about Wobbufet? Meowth I understand as he's TR's equivalent to Pikachu, but Wobbufet?

Wobbufett's the most popular Pokemon they own. It's practically the fourth member of the group
I do wish they'd just let other Pokemon stay too.... or let Team Rocket capture more than just one new Pokemon each.

Abareru-kun is one of the folks from Pokenchi, isn't he? And what the heck is an "Anime Cheerleading Chief?" Is that a character within the episodes themselves or is that referring to a segment outside of the episodes?

So, it appears this is going to be Team Rocket's Alola debut. I hope Ash enjoyed the peace and quiet of the previous two episodes, because here come his stalkers! Giovanni's presence makes me wonder if Team Rocket will be sent to Alola on a mission. After their "success" at taking down Team Flare, maybe Giovanni decides to send them on a mission to infiltrate and/or take down Team Skull. That should be fun to watch them bungle.

Meowth is pretty much a member of the Team Rocket trio. He is not a Pokemon under the ownership of a trio member like Wobbuffet is.

Didn't they have a contest after bw to see which of the members was the most popular? I remember wobbuffet winning that one.

They had a poll after the end of the Project Tempest arc about which old Rocketmon people wanted to return, the options being Sonansu, Manene and Dokucale. Sonansu won.

The decision to bring it back for XY likely took the poll results into account.

Abareru-kun is one of the folks from Pokenchi, isn't he?

Yes (and he was also a regular co-host on Get TV). Last episode ended with him thanking Rica for her moving performance of the opening theme, then cryptically declaring he was going to "hype up the anime as well" and that he was going to "be in the anime" before leaving the house, leaving the rest of the cast wondering what he meant by that.

Ah, I see. Thank you for responding, Dephender. So, then, it's unknown whether his role is within the show proper (as in, he is voicing an actual character) or in one of the segments that goes along with the episodes, like these PokéProblems or PokéQuizzes? I haven't really seen Abareru-kun "in action," so to speak (since I've only ever managed to catch snippets of Pokénchi), but he IS a comedian, so at least he fits right in with the slapstick comedy of the SM series. It'll be interesting to see what his role is.

I thought that was the case, I just didn't want to assume they flat out asked which one people wanted to come back. But yeah I agree on that probably took into account in their decision.

My guess is that he'll be hosting whatever post-credit segment that's taking the place of PokeTV. His role is "Anime Cheerleading Chief", which doesn't exactly sound like a character that'll actually be in the show itself.

Life doesn’t end, …it changes.
Rowlet hugging Ash is so cute!!! X3 And Pikachu got up immediately after being carried by Rowlet. He still has a lot of fight in him! Hope this means Ash catches the grass starter and not the regional bird for once.

Sick of dealing with idiots.
Wow, Jessie's face is like nightmare fuel and why did Pikachu use Thunderbolt on Rotom Pokedex? Also, I'm curious as to why Litten was shown in the preview.

Looks like Ash will get Rowlet then. NICE!
Mallow coming with him on his quest to catch a Pokémon in Alola. That's nice.

Also, i don't think Ash will get Mimikyu. Looks like this Pokémon is gonna be a rival for Pikachu.
Maybe TRio will get it?
