"[Phase 2] Compilation of all Team Rocket grunt lineups - we need your help!"

#PokemonGO: I started this post a few days ago for everyone to report all grunt teams they encountered in Team Rocket battles. Since new Shadow Pokémon have been added recently, I think it's a good time to start afresh and verify what new teams are added, and what old teams remain! Please report the team that Team Rocket grunts used in the exact order**, as well as the hint you see when you click the "battle" button.**Important: Please report BOTH OLD and new lineups if you see the old lineup in italics**! We want to make sure the old ones (like Bulbasaur and Zubat ones) still exist.**The Team Rocket grunt gives hints on the type of their strongest Pokémon (yet to confirm if it's always the third). You will always be catching either the first or the second Pokémon that they used. (This was changed roughly when the Ekans/Koffing event started.)Italics indicate teams that were spotted in the first week of Team Rocket release, but has not yet been verified after the Shadow Pokémon pool expansion.Many of the "Best counter" recommendations may need updating since new Pokémon are available. Feel free to post your suggestions!Last updated: August 2 11:46am UTC.​"Go, my super bug Pokémon!": Strongest Pokémon is Bug typeScyther, Scyther, ScytherScyther, Scyther, ScizorScyther, Scizor, ScytherScyther, Scizor, Scizor"Wherever is a light, there is also shadow.": Strongest Pokémon is Dark type(No reports yet)"ROAR! ...
