Okay, well, since those effected by the powers plot still have residual stuff going on, I was thinking...

What if Team Rocket did some kidnapping? Surely the science division would want to chart the effects and such, right? They could use psychic Pokemon to teleport people to whichever lab branch is closest.

The kidnapped would be gone for about a week or so and then unceremoniously dumped in whatever place is easily accessible, but doesn't give away the base?

Anyway, it was just a thought.
