You could cut out their scenes and literally nothing in the movie would have changed (other than making it less cringeworthy and giving it a tighter narrative, I guess). They appear, make a bad quip, and then "blast off again". They don't interact with Ash at all, they don't affect the story even a little. But they're ultimate pointless fan-service.
When they first appeared I smiled at seeing some of my favourite idiots back on screen. In fact on that note let me start my criticisms, because the treatment of Team Rocket here potentially ruins an otherwise perfectly fine movie. This also ties Charmander into the film's story really as well, rather than it just being a random callback like a few others end up feeling like (looking at you Team Rocket). There's no Gary either, replaced instead with Cross, who's basically the exact same character without the personal connection all he cares about is winning and strength, and he views friendship as a weakness. In fact on that note I Choose You has a whole bunch of actual Pokemon battles, something decidedly absent from the original anime, and they're all great to actually watch for once. It's not long into the movie's runtime that he's already gathered three gym badges, and he wins most of his trainer battles too. Charizard is also not a complete jerk to Ash, which not only saves a bunch of time in an already cramped movie, but also reinforces that this Ash is much more capable and sure of himself. Sorrel's backstory in particular is surprisingly dark and heartbreaking, while Verity's is itself an obscure reference. Not only that, but Verity and Sorrel were much less annoying, and had some relatable and tragic backstories that made them instantly more interesting. Why would a couple of Gym Leaders abandon their posts to go on an adventure with a ten year old? It makes more sense that Ash would attach himself to like-minded peers. Brock and Misty are nowhere to be seen, and honestly I didn't miss them. This is less of a retelling and more of a complete re-imagining.
With this they also picked up a bunch of stuff from the games as well, such as the Rainbow Wing, Ho-Oh's tower being burnt down, and the creation of Raikou, Entei, and Suicune, making for a thoroughly compelling and unique legendary Pokemon hunt (unlike Mewtwo Strikes Back, The Power of One, or Spell of the Unown, Ash actively hunts down the legendary Pokemon rather than accidentally falling into its path). Seeing as that cameo never got any payoff in the show, and Ho-Oh missed out on its own movie, I was actually really happy this was the direction they decided to take. However most crucially that brief, inspirational appearance of Ho-Oh in the first episode is not only present, but becomes the primary drive of the film's narrative.

Ash and Pikachu are initially at odds with one another, they get attacked by a flock of Spearow, Ash catches his own Caterpie which later evolves up through Metapod and Butterfree, before being set free to migrate south, and he shelters an abused Charmander left out in the rain who later evolves up to become his trusty Charizard. I Choose You plays out a little like a greatest hits of the show's first season.
