I don't know how to feel about the Meowth thing.
I'm angry because I feel betrayed as a Meowth fan and a Team Rocket fan and IDGAF if I'm "taking things too seriously", you would too if they were the only things keeping you going while you were facing bullying in school growing up.
Meowth should not be caught. And Team Rocket shouldn't throw him out. They might be more "serious" now but they can still be friends with him and to have them not care he's gone, to have him no longer be their bro, to have any of what's apparently happening in 43... happen...
It's not okay. This is not the Team Rocket that taught me the things I didn't learn in school, about how even when things look their worst, you can always try again, about how even when you're an outcast you can always feel like you belong somewhere, and how it was okay to be a girl, but still stick up for myself and those I care about. It's not the Team Rocket I grew up with.
I'm going to fucking cry if this is permanent. And it saddens me that so much of the fandom is apparently okay with this.
(Don't get me started on how it'll take Meowth out of the picture and how that's good for Rocketshipping. Because it's not. Meowth has kept those two together, and if they just happily cast a close friend like that aside, that doesn't say much for how true they are to each other. Don't even get me started.)

He was their friend, yes, but remember that he was fired so he might have fucked something up, we don't know on what grounds he is being dismissed.
I highly doubt any of this is permanent. We just have to watch the episodes and see what happens, then go from there.

It's all just too much for me to handle. I can't take him leaving TR, I really can't. I knew this was coming since the episode title was announced, but I didn't know it'd be anything like what's shown.
just the screenshots are so upsetting to me i just can't

Anyways, I too not sure how to feel about Iris catching Meowth. I'm thinking though perhaps Iris will actually give the pokeball she used to catch Meowth to Jessie and James, but that's probably unlikely going to happen. Want to wait and see how this goes.
Off topic, but I just want to let you know that I most likely won't come to chat tonight due to needing to deal some online stuff for my dad. >.>;

except you know, stuff that's ooc/ruins a character's purpose isn't character development, and that's an excuse I've seen OOC/Mary Sue writer use when called on their bullshit.
This is character development the way Harry becoming a Death Eater would be character development.
