Interview with Team Rocket

Reporter: Hi, I'm Richard Williams, with the Pokémon Times. Are you the infamous Team Rocket?

Jessie: Why, yes we are.

Reporter: You must be Cassidy.

Jessie: What are you talking about!!!? I'm Jessie. (Jessie's face turns bright red and swells up like a balloon.)

(The reporter jumps back in fright.)

James: Calm down, Jessie. Allow us to introduce ourselves.

(Jessie begins the Team Rocket Motto pose.)

Jessie: Prepare for trouble...

James: and make it double...

(The reporter cuts in.)

Reporter: Enough of that, I'd like to ask you a few questions anyway.

Jessie: (angrily) Do not interrupt the Team Rocket Motto.

(Jessie and James finish)

Meowth: Meowth, that's right! Now, what questions would you like to ask, about us?

Reporter: Oh yeah, first what are your names?

Jessie: I'm Jessie, the gorgeous one.

James: I'm James, the handsome one.

Meowth: I'm Meowth. The perfect pokémon with the gift of both human and pokémon speech.

Reporter: Okay, now who do you work for?

Meowth: We work for my owner, the boss.

Reporter: And, who is this boss of yours?

Meowth: That's none of your business.

Reporter: Moving on, what are your goals?

James: We plan to steal that Pikachu and hope to steal him soon. To impress the boss and complete our goal that pikachu will be ours, we will finally be done with that plan.

Reporter: How long have you been trying to steal that Pikachu?

Jessie: Months now.

Reporter: Then, why don't you give up if you are always unsuccessful? Is that pikachu worth all that trouble?

James: (unsure) Well, I guess; (whispers) we can't tell the boss we can't even steal pikachu from a 10 year old kid. Do you think I enjoy getting electrocuted and being beaten up?

Reporter: Hmmmm..., some people do find that stimulating.

Meowth: Psy yi yi, enough of this! Let's go!

Reporter: Wait! Don't leave. I promise to put in flattering photos of you in the paper, if you stay and finish answering my questions.

James: (interested) Really?

Jessie: Alright, maybe we can stay a while longer.

Meowth: Psy yi yi.

Jessie: What's with the "psy yi yi", we are beginning to worry about you Meowth.

Reporter: Okay, one more question.

Jessie: Shoot.

Reporter: How can we get in touch with Cassidy and Butch? (Jessie, James, and Meowth fall to the ground and faint.)
