Team Rocket scientists are either members of or contracted by Team Rocket to develop new technology. They help design and implement many of the devices used in Team Rocket's plans; they also experiment on Pokémon.

Red/Blue/Green/Yellow/FireRed/LeafGreen

Some of the Silph Co. scientists join Team Rocket in exchange for power and money. Both they and the Team Rocket Grunts attack the player to prevent interference with their plans regarding Silph Co. One scientist only joined because Team Rocket wouldn't let him study Pokémon unless he did.

Sevii Islands

When the player obtains the Sapphire from the Ruin Valley cave, Scientist Gideon drops down and steals it so that he can sell it to Team Rocket for money. The player faces him after defeating all Rocket grunts in a local warehouse. After defeating him, Gideon mentions a hint about the identity of Giovanni's son.

Gold/Silver/Crystal/HeartGold/SoulSilver

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In the Kanto and Johto sagas, Rocket scientists do not make many appearances as they appear to be keeping to the shadows. In fact, the only Rocket scientist to be known to the public is Blaine, who helped on the Mewtwo Project.

In PS020, it was shown that the Eevee that Red owned was asked to get for Erika was part of the "Eevee Bio-Engineering Scheme" that would allow Team Rocket to have a weapon with the skills to make an Eevee transform freely among its evolved forms without the use of evolutionary stones. The scientists did this at Giovanni's command.

Most of the scientists were killed when Mewtwo destroyed the Cinnabar Lab in PS034.

In the anime

Giovanni hired Dr. Fuji to use his team of scientists to find and clone Mew. Dr. Fuji agreed out of the hope that the money given to him to develop the cloning technology would allow him to make a replica of his late daughter Amber. The scientists succeeded in cloning Mew, and Mewtwo was created; however, soon after its awakening, Mewtwo destroyed the lab in which it was created and the scientists within it.

Other Rocket scientists worked under Professor Sebastian, making the forced Pokémon evolution beam and the crystal system that traps the Electric Pokémon Raikou in The Legend of Thunder!. Further into Johto, a team of Rockets working under Dr. Namba managed to trap two Lugia, a mother and child. Namba was last known to be researching Hippowdon's sand.

A scientist named Dr. Zager appeared in Unova, working with Pierce to analyze the Meteonite and discover its potential. In later episodes, he begun filling a superior officer role to Jessie and James similar to that of Dr. Namba in relation to Butch and Cassidy.
