Pokémon has had its fair share of villains over the years, but no one comes as close as the original Team Rocket. Immortalized thanks to the help of Jesse, James, and Meowth in the Indigo League anime, Team Rocket has made regular appearances in Pokémon media for three decades. Now, it looks like everyone's favorite antagonists are coming back in a big way.
Thanks to a new trademark filing, it looks like some kind of new Team Rocket content is on the way. Per PokeBeach, the new trademark filing translates essentially into "Are You Perhaps With Team Rocket?" The trademark has been filed in Japan, and it's under the same category that is used for set names and products related to the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
This is just a trademark filing right now, so nothing else is really known. However, Are You Perhaps With Team Rocket? is a strange name for a new Pokémon TCG set. Traditionally, sets stick to short and snappy titles like Pitch Black and Ascended Heroes. It's also a bit odd, since a Team Rocket-themed set called Destined Rivals just arrived in 2025. It seems a bit early for another Team Rocket set right now....
