Looking Forward: The Plasma Report: TOP SECRET
Greetings my fellow leaders of Team Rocket. I write to you from a location I must keep secret, but I assure you I am planning a glorious and triumphant return as you read this. Like Ho-oh rising from the ashes, we will return again, more powerful than before. But there is a more pressing matter at hand: a newly discovered rival in the Isshu region, Team Plasma.

So he lives...
what was that? It's not NEWS!

Team Rocket will rise again; greater, more powerful, and more feared than any other group on Earth. I have a plan, perhaps my greatest yet, to tilt the balance of the world into the favor of Team Rocket. We will begin soon.
Son of a bitch... they're planning another forum takeover. Maybe we should have a Team Rocket vs. Team Plasma Takeover once Black and White are released?:-p
I don't believe it... even Cyrus can "horrify" the Magnificent Bastard himself. o.O
But anyways... I'm really anxious to see what the full extent of Plasma's plans are. I'm suprised that "Giovanni" had completely missed the part where they go around and steal other's Pokemon in order to liberate them from their trainers though. Gio, I DISAPPOINT!
The presentation is slightly silly, but the article itself... It can easily be explained.
Due to the fact that Pokémon themselves are never portrayed as evil on their own, the major antagonistic force is going to always be people who use Pokémon to further their own goals. It's just that the goals are getting more and more elaborate. In much the same ways that legendaries get more and more fantastic as the series goes on, so do the evil teams.
We started with regular criminals who merely use Pokémon for profit (although fanon would tell you that they had a hand in creating Mewtwo... which they did not). As the game's various plots got more complex, the next step is to of course, use the box legendary to further their goals. For Gen V we will be getting much the same. They may want to use the powers of either Reshiram or Zekrom (so far, both have powers over fire and electricity... both of which are plasma-based) to do... something. So far they seem to want to separate Pokémon from people. Whatever that might mean.
EDIT: I'm sick of Team Rocket wanking though. Is it a nostalgia thing? I mean, as the series goes onward, Team Rocket is becoming less and less of a legitimate threat. Especially when bigger and badder villainous forces come out of the woodwork. What makes Team Rocket so popular... That might be a better article to write about.
Fanon that was furthered by the anime.Quote:

Open your local newspaper. Does it have opinions, personality pieces, and even the occasional short story?Quote:

There are even three other non-news pieces currently on the front page (The Stuff of Legend and two Origin of Species pieces), so it isn't like this change should come as a shock at this point.
Don't like non-news in your newspaper? Well, you can always not click on it.
It was stated in the opening narration, "Giovanni is financing our experiment, for he wants to control the most powerful Pokémon in the world."Quote:

It's not too far out of the question an older fan would have seen it, compared to the recent movies which go straight to DVD. Your response makes it seem like you've watched it too >_>Quote:

You get a piece of information wrong and now you have to resort to aggression? Just own the fuck up and say "oops, my mistake".Quote:
