A lot of stuff behind the scenes I can’t talk about, but I had a big hand in what happened lately. Though we aren’t active at the moment, so I’m vacationing in the Sevii islands for a while.
Yes the rumors were true, we cloned the sacred birds. They’re my babies and I won’t take any disrespect in regards to them.
I use they/them and it/its. Call me a rocket, not a person.
Fuck Lance all my homies hate Lance.

//OOC:
Hi hello! I’ve been playing Pokémon team rocket edition lately and. I am so compelled by the oc I’ve made out of the protagonist.
This is from a canon divergent world where rocket is lowkey a political movement that got smeared by the media and resorted to criminal activity to survive, so rocket WILL seem softer when Zora talks about it. FEEL FREE TO HAVE CHARACTERS FROM OTHER WORLDS REACT TO ZORA AS THEY WOULD TO A ROCKET FROM THEIR OWN WORLD!
I follow from @stormcloudsandshadows!
I’ve dabbled in rotomblr before but I deleted the blogs because I got bored… oops. Probably won’t happen this time because I’m very brrr about Zora
Are you claiming you DON'T just steal slowpoke to cut off their tails to sell and toss them out in the wild without any veterinary attention?
Come on man, one of you guys tried to offer me a couple grand to carry a backpack full of them through checkpoint when I was 12
Hello??? What!!!
Why would we do that… don’t slowpoke literally shed their tails naturally… what…
Like okay I’m used to lance’s propaganda in my own world but what? Slowpoke???
Mistreating Pokémon would be bad anyways, like. I personally am way more fond of Pokémon than people but even if it WAS purely on a “roarrr rocket want profit grr grrr” no one would want to buy an injured Pokémon so taking good care of them is in EVERYONE’S best interest?
(I swear if you take that in bad faith. That statement is a what if, it is not how I think and it’s not how the grunts under me think. I know this is a risk, I’ve heard so much about this piss on the poor webbed site.)
[@champion-rocket] 7. What's your favorite type of silly hat?
Big frilly ones with feathers and stuff. The ones that were really big in fashion as a form of expression and stuff. I know in their day they were super stylish and dignified but they seem so goofy and fun looking back at them. Like. Ah yes I look like a fancy bird made my head into it’s nest!
[@champion-rocket] Alright, I've got to ask: What's the situation with the cloned birds?
Oh yeah sure, that’s fair.
Basically, due to Lance’s control of the sacred beasts of Johto, the boss was looking for a way to match them, and the sacred birds had been roosting in known locations.
Actually capturing the birds would be way too conspicuous, especially with how much Lance had people turned against us. So the boss sent me, my rival, and the kid to each go find one of the birds. I went to find articuno. After I had gathered a feather from battling it, I had to go to where zapdos was because police had surrounded it and were hunting my rival down. One of the executives came to help too. They dealt with the cops and Lorelei while I got the feather from zapdos.
My babies are the first successful clones of the birds. I couldn’t use them to face Lance, because after the thing with Zapdos they banned anyone from challenging the champion alongside the birds because “they must have acquired them illegally because there’s only one of them” (which isn’t even true? They’re powerful Pokémon but they are individuals of a species pretty proveably)
No, that happened when you guys invaded Alola through an ultra wormhole. I lived through the lockdowns while Ghetsis was holding the traumatized kid of the Aether foundation's president hostage in the name of Rocket. This is just pathetic attempt to feign ignorance.
WHAT????
What on earth
I literally have no clue what you’re going on about
I. Think you might be in a different world than I’m in.
My team rocket very much has not done any? Of this???
You pieces of shit were harboring Ghetsis, the piece of shit that iced an entire town in my region, Unova, with a superweapon all so you could better take over other dimensions in your pathetic bid to establish a multidimensional empire. Go fuck yourself. Pathetic.
Oh fuck no. I’m fine with the general “oh no rocket evil” stuff, working in kanto this last year made that very easy to get used to given Lance’s smear campaign about us. But ghetsis?
Absolutely not. Shutting that down
I’m from Unova. I lived through plasma. I would straight up undermine the boss and take over myself if he tried to partner with that guy. And that’s saying something because I fully recognize that Giovanni is way better at leading than I am.
