Team Moluza
Team Colume
Team Frecheta

Team Bidoof?

... Team Fail? You know they're going to it by the end.


EDIT: Just notice OP's username, haha

Nick May 16th, 2010 8:22 AM

I really wish they'd break the chain. The only interesting evil organization was Cipher and that was because of the fact that they actually used the Pokémon in a way other teams didn't by making them shadow Pokémon, which I don't see happening in the handheld games, unfortunately.

Timbjerr May 16th, 2010 8:24 AM

Seeing as there's a rather large emphasis on the black/white, darkness/light theme, the evil team(s) needs to play off that. I'd like to see an evil team that qualifies as frighteningly villainous instead of a yakuza-style mob, fanatical environmentalists, or a downright plain loony team.

This is just wishful thinking on my part though...

Mew~ May 16th, 2010 8:30 AM

I think they might bring back team rocket!?
Have you beaten the team rocket grunt in kanto in hg/ss? to get the machine part? well for those of you who havent, once you beat him he tells you hes gonna go back to his country (isshu anyone?) and rebulid team rocket! (or was it make his own rocket?) Anyone agree?
If not then i hope they do two teams again (like magma and aqua!) team back and team white... or team dark and light XD

I wouldn't say that. I don't know about you, but as the teams progressed from generation to generation, I noticed a lot of changes in their cynicalness and thirst for world domination. I think that they've become more evil as the generations progressed. Even though the grunts are poor excuses for villains, it seems kind of appropriate that they only continue to get more and more villainous.

And since, like you said, black and white is commonly compared to good vs evil, I think a villainous team that isn't laughable is kind of expected. I would like to see the type of villains that there were in FireRed and LeafGreen on the island. You remember those bikers? Kind of like them; relentless and rather intimidating.

Zeph. May 16th, 2010 8:32 AM

Team Rocket. I hope hope hope they return :D

This. I'd hope for something incredibly cultish. Perhaps a cult obsessed with purity, and the other with chaos or corruption and they switch around as antagonists like Aqua and Magma in Ruby and Saphire. The Order of Lumis and The Umber Syndicate. That would fit with the light/darkness theme but it's a little over the top, evern more so than Team Galactic and their new universe idea.. I just hope they don't go for a "gain-control-of-the-legendary-and-use-it-for-our-evil-purpose-mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-look-at-how-evil-we-are-we-are-so-evil-bet-you-can't-defeat-our-zubats-and-stop-us"-esque plotline again as it's no longer original.

That brings me to my other point. Will the evil teams please STOP USING ZUBAT!!!! It's getting really old now!

sampika08 May 16th, 2010 8:35 AM

So there was team rocket, team aqua, team magma and team galactic.
I'll go team moon.

BeachBoy May 16th, 2010 8:35 AM

I'd like to see one very evil team, and a good team to... help you out along the way. It's black and white, after all. Can't think of any names, but yeah, haha.

Sorry, not trying to call anyone out or anything, but I'm very very curious and I'm trying to figure out why you guys want them to return.

Think about what happened in previous generations. In Generation I, we expected them to be there forever since we never thought of another evil team coming since... it hadn't been done yet. After they disbanded for three years they return and a kid in Generation II manages to defeat them? The only possible way they'd be in this generation would probably be because a) there's another branch of Team Rocket in the Isshu region, or b) because they were embarrassed to show their faces in the previous regions and relocated.

Hopefully Zubat won't be included in this generation, but that right there is wishful thinking.

Mana May 16th, 2010 8:42 AM

If it's an evil team there should be a good team you help out.

Otherwise I want ONE villain.

No more trainer-who-just-started taking down whole evil corporations -.- XD

As much sense as this theory makes, I'm fairly certain that bumbling foreign idiot would make the lamest evil team admin ever. XD

Like I said, I want an evil team executive that's so menacing and malicious that he could give the little ones nightmares. Cyrus came close, but he came off as a little too insane to be taken seriously. I sometimes wonder how a loon like him attracted so many inept disciples. >_>

This is what I had in mind. Two teams who go against each other, but this time more involved. Ruby and Sapphire had a decent plot with Team Magma and Team Aqua, but I just feel it wasn't implemented into the game's story enough.

Something like Team Dusk and Team Dawn (I know, so unoriginal right?). This time Team Dusk is at attempt to keep the whole region dark. Light shall no longer prevail over Isshu region, but instead it shall be left in complete darkness, with only the moon revealing such little light. They need the help of the game's mascot to complete their villainous plans, but at the same time they're taking Pokémon and turning them to the dark side (a little Team Cipher influence). While the team that represents the day becomes very twined with the story and you as the protagonist. Vise Versa would happen for Pokémon White as Team Dawn tries to keep the region only in light, while Team Dusk becomes involved to prevent them. They too would be capturing Pokémon for evil use under a machine of the sorts.

The team plot is kind of mirroring that of Ruby and Sapphire, but I'd like it to be more of a darker thought out scheme this time. The team's aren't too much of a pushover in which they can really give players a run for their money. Intertwining two plots for each team - being turned over Pokémon and the idea to keep the region lit or at dark. And obviously, I'd like both grunts and leaders to have decent team rosters and not the same thing we've been seeing every generation (i.e Zubat and others).

humanguy2000 May 16th, 2010 8:54 AM

I'd love to see team aqua/magma come back. The aqua/magma battle music from R/S/E was awesome! (Best Pokémon battle theme I've ever heard) I'm really looking forward to seeing if this 'new' team has a Zubat.

It would be really nice to have a good vs evil thing going on that was introduced in Generation III, like you and Ryan have said. One of the things that bothered me with Ruby and Sapphire was the fact that the side of good and evil depended on which version of the game you chose to purchase. I would really like the plot in both of the games to be rather fixed, whereas the evil team remained the same in both versions, instead of depending solely on which version of the game you purchased.

The only question I have is why would they come back? They really don't have much of a storyline for this version and don't play into the whole Black and White aspect of the game.

Ohhh, now there's something cool. To expand on that, perhaps Team Dusk's calamity is massive black-outs all over the region with missing people and Pokémon? Like a region being consumed by the darkness.

Other than Team Magma and Team Aqua having no purpose in Black and White, they disbanded right after the legendaries lost control in RSE. So, their return is pretty slim as of Team Rocket, sadly. To be honest, it's a new Generation and it definitely shows it's a rebirth of Pokémon. So, I doubt any former teams would have a return.

I agree actually on it being based on which version you purchase, which is why when Emerald was released I was pleased they gave the story more of a twist by making both teams show they are both villains. So, if they can take this same idea and put it into Black and White first, before the third counterpart, then I'd probably enjoy it more. As long as the plot of the game is more deeply thought out than past generations then I'd be satisfied enough, as that's what I'm looking forward to the most.

Oh cool, I like your expansion on the idea. It makes me want something like this to occur even more. Like I said, all of this is what gives the plot something deeper and more fun to go through. So, yeah if something like this can occur with my pre-existing idea, then I'd be pleased with that. =]

JAK3 May 16th, 2010 9:03 AM

What if this time the team started out as a three man organization that tries to steal your Pokemon at the beginning, but as you progress through the game, so do they?

Hence why, IMO, Emerald was such a better game! You were up against both teams at the same time. The plot was much more substancial. If anyone hasn't played Emerald they must as it was my favourite pokemon game ever. It also made the teams of the gym leaders a lot better, but that's for another thread.

Platinum, likewise was better than Diamond and Pearl but some aspects of it lacked character (eg. Where is Fantina's funkadelic Drifblim? Infernape suits Flint more as a signature poke than Magmortar etc, etc.).

Sorry if this sound horribly drab, but character is what makes gym leaders, evil teams etc. the best. Not going OMG RHYPERIOR IS EPIC PWNAGE LOL LOL ROFL LOL. I mean why would a sweet dear like Bertha have that monstrosity anyway? Sudowoodo and Quagsire were more her cup of tea than a Gligscor and a Rhyperior.

On the subject of Bertha, it has been hinted she is a sister of Agatha. Maybe we'll see a 3rd sibling in Black/White. I'm not going into that any more though. It's a lickle bitty off-topic.

blue May 16th, 2010 9:46 AM

Well whatever the team name, I hope they use a different mix of Pokemon, unlike Team Rocket in G/S/C, batteling constant Zubat's & Rattata's ain't good. >.<

Team Light & Team Dark
Team Space & Team Time

Not very creative but some of the Team name's aren't very creative either :D

sirboulevard May 16th, 2010 9:52 AM

It actually might be Team Rocket again. Look at the guy in black in the middle of the screenshot of the harbor. He looks entirely like a team rocket grunt. So I wouldn't count our long standing nemesi quite yet.

PokemonLeagueChamp May 16th, 2010 10:19 AM

Team Nova?

But sooner or later there needs to be a good team. The idea that one novice kid trainer can bash loads of organized evil organizations is just getting too far-fetched(no, not the Pokemon). Team Rocket sucks in the games, Magma and Aqua are fairly tough, and then most of Team Galactic sucks(in direct contrast with the anime, they're way better in that). I want to see an evil team on the level of strength of Magma, Aqua, or Cipher, and then a good group helps the player beats them.

Cipher to me was the most interesting organization there was, simply because of the snagging and use of shadow Pokémon. They didn't just use Pokémon in exploitation, they actually did something with them. I'm hoping the organization in this generation does something along the lines of what Cipher did.

MartinJF May 16th, 2010 10:48 AM

Team Quake, trying to control the legendary pokemon __________ to make earthquakes that destroy cities, so Ghost Pokemon can live in the ruins.

Or Team Glacier, trying to make home for Ice PKMN.

And, Team Thunder, tring to make more home for Electrik pokemon.

ohsnapkid May 16th, 2010 10:49 AM

Given the city environment and the higher age of the protagonists, I'm actually thinking it might be more of a gang-oriented thing, as opposed to the formulaic 'Team ____'.

Obviously I don't think it will encompass the typical gang activities, but it'll have the dynamic of rival gangs competing against each other.

Bluerang1 May 16th, 2010 10:54 AM

Team Eclipse. You know, something to do with Day and Night :P

Esper May 16th, 2010 11:51 AM

It's supposed to be a technologically advanced region so I expect to see any Team Evils being based around that. Either they want to use some kind of new invention to control the region or some kind of anti-technology brigade that wants to bring the region back to the Stone Age. Let's call the first Team Synth and the second Team Greenpeace Team Terra.

Ayselipera May 16th, 2010 12:26 PM

I'm going to say Team Darkness since the game is called Black and White and that is the simplest name I can think of. I'm guessing it will be something fancier like Team Ebony or Team Eclipse. Maybe I'm completely wrong though and instead they'll call it Team Milky Way and we'll all call it a day.

Zeta Sukuna May 16th, 2010 1:36 PM

Here's kind of what I'm hoping for.

Start off with Team Rocket, have them defeated by the new Team (Whatever), and have them do their own plan. Have Team Rocket face you twice, doing what they've been doing, trying to make money to rebuild, then have the new team come in and chase them out, making them the primary inhabitants.

This new team can then do what they want to do, which I can't think of something that hasn't been said. That kind of setup would be pretty cool, in my own opinion. The foreign person's threat would be partially carried out, and actually hint to the 5th generation, but it would also allow another team to be in the spotlight. Of course, you'd need to put in some hints about this new team, and maybe an encounter, like the Aqua grunt in Petalburg Forest, to kind of establish them a little bit, I guess, but it can still work.

That brings me to my other point. Will the evil teams please STOP USING ZUBAT!!!! It's getting really old now!

Pure Awesomeness there

I'd go for

Black: Team Moon
White: Team Sun
Grey (You know its gonna happen): Team Magnetism

OK, instead of the Taking over of Legendary + Take over world = Teams Objective, I'd go for something more imaginative.

My idea is that Team Moon/Sun would try tol use the gravitational force of the Moon/Sun to threaten to destroy the earth. The Legendary, instead of being captured by said Team will fly/Appear before you battle Teams leader to test if you are powerful enough to defeat said leader.

In Grey Version, both teams would join together once you beat an important person in both Teams.

Just an idea ^_^

Volroc May 16th, 2010 4:15 PM

i hope no new evil teams, their gettin lamer in design (well the grunts are)
no more evil teams, bring back old favs, but theirs nothing else they can do:
end reality went to cyrus
world domination went to giovanni
fix the world threw cataclysmic means went to magma& aqua lol

theyve done everything :P

A Pixy May 16th, 2010 4:16 PM

It's probably going to be something like Light and Dark. Not that I really care. But yes, Team Rocket is pathetic.

LOLZ, WE R STEELIN UR SLOWPOKE TAILZ! WE R SO EBIL!!1!!!one!!11!

Tyrantrum May 16th, 2010 4:24 PM

Damn, I didn't even see this thread... I feel stupid now. :(

Well, they could probably go as far as to just taking over the Isshu region. They might not go crazy like Cyrus frm D/P/Pt.

No we need a team Ventus or Terra (wind and Earth in Latin) rather than team moon to make up for the Team Aqua,Magma theme of being latin words rather than space words like Rocket and Galactic.

I liked Cyrus he reminds me a lot of me... except crazier... I would want to creat my own Universe too but one that's peaceful and has Emotions,ect.

coconutberry May 16th, 2010 5:06 PM

I'd just like to see more than one team like in R/S/E... That would be awesome. :D

Urwaldbewohner May 17th, 2010 8:40 AM

The best name for the new "Team": Police
Let's **** thus lame guys standing around with their Growlithes dooing nothing then challenge little children. And u are a Grunt of the big bad Leader,
the lokal professor.

SpawnHyuuga May 17th, 2010 9:11 AM

Well consider, as others have speculated that the enemies seem to be getting darker and we have a chief God Pokemon, "Arceus"; anyone think maybe Zoroark is like a minion of a Chief Devil-God Pokemon, that resembles Satan (maybe Dragon/Fire or Dragon/Dark...)?

The evil team would then be a cult who tries to bring about this horrible creation, and then you the good guy put an end to it...:/

Just once, can't the evil people WIN?

HackChu May 17th, 2010 9:30 AM

I think it might be like Ruby and Saphirre. Two different teams, perhaps one good and other evil, I don't know it'll be something like that...

linkinpark187 May 17th, 2010 10:47 AM

If there are two teams, and they if they were to end up being of the Sun and the Moon, I could see them extensively using Solrock and Lunatone. Or am I the only one that thought of that? I haven't read the rest of the posts, so...I'm not sure if I'm the first to have thought of that or not. lol

Esmas May 17th, 2010 11:10 AM

I'm guessing something to do with light and darkness; Team Light, Team Dark, Team Dusk, Team Dawn, etc.

I don't think Game Freak will make a return with Team Rocket, as we've seen enough of them in HG/SS xD;

EDIT:
Maybe there could be a connection with Zoroark? Team Illusion?

PokemonCrazy_ May 17th, 2010 11:18 AM

Team light, that would be cool!

GlitchCity May 17th, 2010 12:46 PM

Team Shapoopie!

.-. I would cry if I have to see Team Rocket in the games again, and I would hide in my closet if Team Galatic made a comeback. Maybe Team X[something]. I just hope for a team that starts with the letter "X" lol make it sound like a "Z". Team Xenmas ftw! -.~ maybe not....

Team dragon, team purify, team supa mario. Ugh maybe the first part wont even have "team" in front of it. It could be the gang green gang, or the justice leauge. Fantastic 4? Devistating 4? Terrible leauge? Team Pure awesomeness?

SolarAbusoru May 20th, 2010 11:40 PM

Maybe Team Dragoon or something?
also, the team leader this time around shouldn't be some middle-aged old dude or some wierdo guy in a costume.
This time it should either be:
A: A younger man with a slick and cool look to him wearing a white tuxedo, just to fool people into thinking he's not evil (and trust me, that would actually fool someone, unlike the other leaders.)
or
B: Nascour

loliwin May 20th, 2010 11:47 PM

Team Element!

That'd be awesome, it'd be more awesome if a team invaded a gym then becomes the gym leader with elemental pokemon! It'd still be gym leader likish with a twist! XDDD

Just saying that because I, too, support the reappearance of that guy :P Even if only as a cameo.

xDaisuke0 May 21st, 2010 1:05 AM

I hope it IS Team Rocket.
They say Isshu Region is far away from the other regions, so maybe Team Rocket is looking elsewhere, far away and rebuilding in a way. but hopefully a lot more sinister and crazy-evil. ;]

dead-man-walking May 21st, 2010 3:09 AM

Team? Maybe something like Chaos if it's just one, Dawn & Twilight if they decide to do it in RSE Style. Or maybe Yin and Yang?!

You're right...that did come out wrong. XD

He's still an idiot, but he's an idiot because of how epically he failed at his assignment, not because he's foreign. :P

...and I agree. If Isshu is so far away from the rest of the Pokemon world, it'd be cool to see him again in some role or another...I just don't see much of a shock value of him being the villainous team's admin. XD

Aureol May 21st, 2010 7:41 AM

The only team I've liked is Team Rocket, and that's because they were awesome WITHOUT using some sort of ridiculous, grandiose plan to take over the world/universe (although, in Gen. 2, they were getting awfully close). I don't want any of the past teams to return, but I hope that the new team will do something a bit more realistic this time around.

As for team name... maybe Team Reaper? I dunno, sounds idiotic, but so did Team Galactic. A lot of people are speculating the Life/Death legendary duo, so the team name might reference death in some way.

It probably is Team Rocket again, not only because it is foreshadowed in HG/SS, but they don't have many options left, and Rocket is still the most popular. (Fangame toxic purple, no aqua blue or magma red) and honestly The bosses of Rocket are so much better than Galactic, Aqua or Magma.

I'd personally like to see a combination of all the teams, just cause they should all relise they suck on their own. It would be the foriegn rocket from HG/SS, the Galactic admins and the Magma/Aqua Admins(because Archie and Maxie gave up along with Giovanni, while god only knows where Cyrus is)

He's still in the distortion world! I don't like team rocket but I guess they will in fact return, like you said they foreshadowed there return... the new region is also in another country... even though the accent of that person didn't sound english to us... maybe because they wanted to keep it foreign... he might be from the Us as many speculate Isshu takes place in eastern NY state.

Or Team Kaczynski

(lol)

I also like the idea of a kind of gang/mafia (less violent lol) style team to fit with the "urban" setting of the game. :3

LikeUberHackFan May 21st, 2010 3:39 PM

I hope it's not something like Team
Eternal Light -"We fight against the growing threat of darkness"
and
Darkness Desires - "Power to our allmighty creator, the birth of the night sky"

;)

Thorns May 21st, 2010 3:41 PM

Team Myth
A team after mythical legendary creatures who shaped the world.

thepsynergist May 21st, 2010 4:26 PM

We all know the villians are going to be the K.K.K. and the Black Panthers.

I don't know it was a crazy idea of mine.

rockman0 May 21st, 2010 5:46 PM

Team Chaos or Team Anarchy (I don't see the second as likely)

Since the games are called black and white, there will be a light legendary pokemon (good) and dark legendary pokemon (evil). Team Chaos is an evil organization who wants to destroy the light legendary pokemon and allow darkness and chaos to rule the world, thus bringing in an era of anarchy.

EDIT: just had the thought of a team light or something like that which wanted to destroy the dark pokemon and rid the world of all evil, but they also must be stopped because destroying one side would upset the balance between good and evil and cause a rift in the space-time continuum and destroy of all!

Xanatos13 May 21st, 2010 6:02 PM

I think Team Dark or Team Light (or something to that effect) are the most likely scenarios. Team Day, Team Night perhaps?

chezhead May 21st, 2010 6:24 PM

Team Awesome and Team Epic.
That would be awesome, and I would love to see there be a good team, much like in Ruby/Sapphire.

HackChu May 22nd, 2010 10:45 AM

I think they should be as diabolicle as Team Galactic, I think they were a bit more roothless than Team Rocket...well the leader was anyway but what's this foreshadowing of the return of Team Rocket?

pikapip26 May 22nd, 2010 1:34 PM

Maybe Team Illusion. Like they want Zorua/Zoroak! Though I don't think they are the mascots of Black/White, because the team always goes for the mascots of the games,

Not really?
Only RSE and DPPt does.

Safetyfirst May 22nd, 2010 4:21 PM

Team Wobbufet. All they use are Wobb's, and they are unbeatable.

Mortalis May 22nd, 2010 4:25 PM

Team Neo, Team Yin, Team Yang, Team Chrome ...
It usually matches what the game is about;

DPPt :: Dialga and Palkia are Time and Space ; Team Galactic.
RSE :: Groudon and Kyogre are Magma / Earth and Water / Aquatic ; Team Magma and Team Aqua.
Black and White :: Seeing as they haven't released the legendaries yet, I'm expecting them to be Yin and Yang Pokemon ( Balance Pokemon ) so ; Team Neo [ A neo is the Yin Yang symbol in Greek Or German or somethin'. ] or Team Yin and Team Yang, or something. We'll have to base them off the Pokemon.

countryemo May 23rd, 2010 12:59 AM

Team _______ ....
idk.
But ya know the team in movie 13.
How they came over seas with zorua/zoroark.
Thats our evil team?!?

Ωmega May 23rd, 2010 2:46 AM

You guys are thinking too much inside the box.

Yea, there's been teams that have tried to shape the world, end the world, and take over the universe. Honestly, I'm sick of that. Oh, and the repeated use of Zubat, Rattata, Koffing, and Ekans.

How about a team that seems nice, but actually has a drastically evil undertone?

Imagine this: said team--henceforth known as Team Alpha--is simply a small contributor to a large corporation, like Silph Co. Team Alpha helps to develop potions and other healing items sold in stores for Pokemon. No one knows it, but slowly and surely, Team Alpha is going to start making demands on the sales of their potions and, eventually, come out on top as a major corporate superpower because no other company has enough power to manufacture and compete with Team Alpha (Silph Co. makes electronics, not potions. Porygon, anyone?) This is happening as the protagonist goes undercover to figure out what is going on along with a team of individuals who helps him along the way (Team Beta). They learn what Team Alpha is up to, but it's too late and potions can no longer be bought elsewhere except from Team Alpha. This leads to many sick Pokemon and brings in a lot of money for Team Alpha. Realizing what is happening, the protagonist and Team Beta have to take down the corporation.

See? It's not about taking over the world. It's a corporation taking over an economy in a field that must not be messed with: medicine. With the potions and stuff under their control, it's not hard to see why they would succeed at this. Also, it adds an interesting gameplay element in that after a certain point, buying potions and such becomes really really hard, which means you need to battle smart and not die. =/

Just an idea. Those team names are just for simplicity reasons. I like the name GenCorp. :D

Kishijoten May 23rd, 2010 7:37 AM

I think the team should be named after the region. Team Isshua. Or Team Afar, since it's far away from the other regions.

Sorry bout that, I havn't played DPP for a long time, and I don't watch the anamie, cause until they get rid of Ash it sucks.

Frequency May 23rd, 2010 12:25 PM

IDK. Team Universal or something. Like we haven't got any other generic names to come across.....

AvianAzure May 23rd, 2010 2:00 PM

*ahem* Team DY-NO-MYTE!!! sorry had to... Honestly no idea, Prolly something like Team Ebony and Ivory (Black and White) I don't care that much I just want to be able to join the bad guys for once.... But that'll never happen

Harmony May 23rd, 2010 2:23 PM

idk I want a team that's not as lame looking as Team Galatic, and has better goals than Team aqua/ magma did. Can't think of any names for one tho.

Just for the lols: Lets say they make two teams and we call them " Yin and Yang"
( btw if someone said this idea already and liked it, dun read mah post lol sorry :p)

Kid Ghandi May 23rd, 2010 2:40 PM

Why not bring back the aquas and magmas?

They dissembled when they realized they had no control over Kyogre or Groudon. So, Team Aqua and Team Magma coming back seem unlikely, and as much as I enjoyed the plot in RSE, I would prefer to see a new team come to play rather than on old one. I had a decent idea a few pages back and I wouldn't mind that being implemented. My idea for team names though were Dusk and Dawn - to go with the effect of Dark and Light or Black and White.

I'd like to think that Pokémon can go beyond the idea of evil organizations though and develop a wide-ranged idea that's different from the past generations. I mean Pokémon can go very far with a ton of new ideas and plots, and having said that I think they could do well with something new instead of having an evil team try and control the game mascot to either control the world or something. A new plot, never used before, and put into a game that's looking great so far is what I want now. I mean, playing Pokémon for so long, knowing it can implement so many ideas into a game, the want for something new would be pretty nice.

We assumed the same after R/B/Y too though yet they came back in G/S/C. Though I agree with you, I doubt that they or any past team will pry up again in B&W. Not with the new legendaries and region at least.

I imagine that they will have something to do with the game titles, like in R/S we had a different team depending on what game we chose, I can see the same happening here. Possibly one team doing evil for what they think is good and vice versa for the opposing game.

I'd like to see a more mature approach at an evil team though, not one that fails miserably like Team Rocket did, though they were pretty cool and original in R/B/Y they lost their flare in Johto, especially with the departure of Giovanni.

I'd like to see something different though, not just the obilgatory "we must catch ____ to take over the world" like in the other games. It'll be interesting to see what take they put on the evil organisations this time around.

HugSomebody May 23rd, 2010 5:09 PM

In my interpretation, Team Rocket was a mafia. Team Aqua/Magma were rival gangs and extreme environmentalists. Team Galactic was a bunch of mad scientists. For this new region, I would like to see something different. =O Perhaps aliens!

Hypno May 23rd, 2010 5:16 PM

Team Joey, Joey forms a gang with his fellow youngster friends and all they have is ratattas and pidgeys, and his evil plan is to get the phone number of all the people in the world.

Haza May 23rd, 2010 5:19 PM

I kinda sense the return of Team Rocket coming on... but if not, Team Eclipse comes to mind.

PiPVoda May 23rd, 2010 5:43 PM

Well if the name of the games isn't based off of the color of the legendaries, or the name of the main protagonist or anything else then they could use Team Black or Team White or maybe even both (like Magma/Aqua in RSE).

MRAS is probably right Team Rocket may return in the new region; if they do they better be super-pimped out with like stronger pkmn, new costumes, stronger elites, giovanni coming back in full-swing, and BETTER plan to conquer whatever they're tryin' to do cause I'm not so welcoming of bringing them back.

Thunderpunch May 23rd, 2010 5:55 PM

I want Team Rocket to take control of the old teams (magma / aqua if they're still in existence, also Galactic), and to come back stronger than ever. I'd really like if the player could get to choose to fight or join them, but I don't see Nintendo giving us that option

Azzurra May 25th, 2010 2:58 AM

I'm sure "Team Darkness" and "Team Light" could work. Unoriginal, yes, but it would tie in with the whole "Black/White" version thing.

Finch- May 25th, 2010 7:14 AM

I think they should scrap the 'Team' part and come up with something fairly ingenious. I mean there are other words that work well instead of 'team'

Haha, second that ! ;]
We could have some other kind of ennemies, for once xP

But as I'm pretty sure we'll get "Team ...." I'll go with "Team Nebula" or "Team Eclipse" as some already said. >.>

Porygon-Z May 26th, 2010 2:09 AM

They may as well cut to the chase and call them "team generic"

This Quote made my day.

But, other than that, I want Something like Team.....anythin that is not ending with the word black, white, or Dark, or Light. And I want them to be turning not only pokemon to shadows, but also trainers....

Ataraxia May 26th, 2010 7:57 AM

Team Dawn and Team Dusk.

Spoiler:
Hey it follows the pattern right? Very first few episodes of Pokemon all those years ago. Ash, 10 years old, starts his adventure of Pokemon, making new friends capturing, training, battling Pokemon. A mysterious Team ROCKET pops up trying to steal his Pikachu!! Ohs Noes. But look! Team Rocket's blasting off!! This won't get old!!

That Team Rocket must've seemed pretty cool at the time right? Here we are some *insert double digit figure here* years later and they're STILL blasting off.
Team Aqua and Team Magma!! THEY were pretty cool; and after two or three seasons of, 'we're blasting off agaaaain... DING' They seemed pretty badass.
EPIC FAIL.
Although in all fairness the whole plot surrounding them WAS pretty cool.
Team Galactic!! This one seems coo- wait wait wait. *sigh* rinse and repeat. FAILURE.

So with all that you can pretty much tell that whatever team or duo of teams to be spawned from the 'Instant Evil Team Maker' will be utterly useless; despite having a fairly decent sounding name.
-.-'

Rant over. :P

StarryLatiasGirl May 26th, 2010 8:46 AM

I don't know about actual team names, but I'm with the person who mentioned having a good and bad team (not like Magma and Aqua in Ruby/Sapphire, but an actual set good and bad team). Maybe a plotline revolving around an underground organization trying to stop the evil team by spying/dressing up like grunts to see how they work and what they're up to, etc. I think that could work out really well.

But hey, just one evil team could work, too. Maybe the main character could team up with someone (their rival, maybe?) to investigate and take them down. I dunno, just throwing ideas out there.

That would fit with the light/darkness theme but it's a little over the top, evern more so than Team Galactic and their new universe idea.. I just hope they don't go for a "gain-control-of-the-legendary-and-use-it-for-our-evil-purpose-mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-look-at-how-evil-we-are-we-are-so-evil-bet-you-can't-defeat-our-zubats-and-stop-us"-esque plotline again as it's no longer original.

That brings me to my other point. Will the evil teams please STOP USING ZUBAT!!!! It's getting really old now!

I've decided that even better than a brainwashing cult would be "Team Disco" led by the evil, yet boogilicious, Dr. Groove. You must stop them before quickly before Wild Cherry manage a comeback tour.

GoldvsRed May 26th, 2010 10:45 AM

I want a Team that specializes in individual Stats... You could have an Admin that specializes in HP, one that specializes in Speed, etc...

dieter57 May 26th, 2010 11:47 AM

two new games right? total opposites right? so i'm gona say there is going to be two different teams. in one game the evil team from the other game will help you defeat the evil team in your game. just like ruby and sapphire. OR what i would like to see happen, one team for each game. but a far more experienced small team of trainers will help you defeat them.

Hypno May 26th, 2010 1:36 PM

Nintendo could also come up with a team that actually wins in this game leaving a second part for this region or some other region where you get to travel to this upcoming one later.

bunnyricebowl May 26th, 2010 1:53 PM

I liked Team Rocket ;_; I thought they were funny. But if they had to be replaced Team Attractive Guys wouldn't hurt. *_*

Pityflame May 26th, 2010 2:05 PM

I vote for Team Brock.

go brock

Neiko Star May 26th, 2010 2:08 PM

Let's call the first Team Synth and the second Team Greenpeace Team Terra.

This is pretty much parallel to my idea. First, there was Team Synth (I'm gonna steal your names because they're better than min xD) who is slowly taking over the world through industrialization. Their leader pretty much already owns the region, because he is a rich tycoon who owns most of the cities in Isshu. His team is mostly just people who want to be in a gang. They could specialize in dark/steel/ghost/psycic types. The Synth Leader is trying to buy all of the small towns in Isshu, and build large cities over them. However, he does have even darker intentions.

The arises Team Terra, an organization of college student hippies. They are lead by a 20-sum year old freedom fighter girl, and they use mostly grass, bug, flying, and ground types. They counter with protests, but eventually get more drastic, going to the extremes to take down Team Synth. However, they don't realize in these processes they do more harm than good.

Something like that. xD Another idea I had was that the leader of an organization is actually a sweet, little old lady, but turns out to be completely twisted, haha.
