How do you feel about Team Plasma?
 
I like them more than the other Baddie Teams because, unlike the others, they have an actual goal beyond "O HAR HAR LETS GO STEAL POKEMANS!" I mean, if you MUST be a dink, be a dink for a reason!

They are my second favorite team tied with Team Galactic.
Also only Team rocket wanted to steal pokemon...and that was for Money
Team Magma and Aqua wanted to make the Land and Sea bigger for Pokemon themselves so they are the closest to Team Plasma goal than any of the other teams.
Now team Galactic...their leader was just a Wannabe god...
So yeah...Team M, A,G and P all have reason and Teams M,A, and P have the nicest goals as they actually think about the pokemon...

deneric December 13th, 2010 4:47 PM

Well now I feel dumb :D But Plasma is still my favorite! (Even if they ARE a bunch of loons)

They only think about the pokemon whose type they like. E.G Aqua didn't care what pokemon or people they killed when they wanted to expand the ocean, as long as water types ruled.

Lol they aren't as Loony as Team Galactic was :P
Also one of the most attrative things about Team Plasma is the plot and backstory around it compared to the other teams (only other team with a real backstory is Team Rocket, and Team Galactic has a bit of background too but Team M and A didn't have much...but remakes of R/S can fix that :P)

deneric December 13th, 2010 5:19 PM

M and A just seemed like extremists :P "Lets flood the world!" "No, lets dry up the ocean!" But yeah, Galatic definitely takes the crazy cake. I'm kind of hoping there turns out to be, like, a genuinely threatening Team somewhere down the line. I mean, the scariest we've had were M and A, and even they were taken down, primarily, by a kid out of the middle of no where!

Yeah they were Extremists but Team Plasma can also be considered Extremists...
I found Team Galactic the "Scariest"...Cryus was so close to achieving his dream...but it failed...
Also M and A might have lost the battle but unlike other leaders they still managed to summon their legendaries out to pull of their plans...maybe they are the scariest for actually succeeding...

deneric December 13th, 2010 5:43 PM

Well yeah, they're all, to an extent, extremist groups (with the possible exception of Team Rocket who was really only out for money, but even their methods were a bit extreme.)
Yeah M&A definitely did some damage. I remember being in the eighth gym town (It's been a while, so I don't remember it's name) and, like, everything freaking out because of Kyogre. I actually felt pretty proud for catching the pokemon that freaked everything out (instead of just being proud of succeeding at the challenge)

Ho-Oh December 13th, 2010 5:58 PM

Just a note, try not to go too off-topic discussing just discussing Team Magma and Team Aqua (since I can see your posts heading that way, anyway). If you want to discuss the teams with the better goals as a whole, bring that to Pokemon General. However, here, make it mainly Team Plasma based.

Having not played the games, I don't know much about Team Plasma, but I do like that their costumes are unique (not necessarily appealing but hey).

deneric December 13th, 2010 6:23 PM

lol oh totally,are they like, medieval soldiers or something? I started playing this right after Guardian Signs and I was like "what's with pokemon and the knights?"

Totaldile December 13th, 2010 10:10 PM

We should have a stoylinewhere at first we FAIL and the world dies and we have to find said legendary to save it :3.

I havn't played the games yet, but Plasma look like idiots. Seriously.

xMiZx December 13th, 2010 10:33 PM

Well I like Team Plasma better than the last batch of Baddies. Solely because of their goal. And the way they're showing it. More like a Psychological question and reasoning. Rather unique. And a bit dark for the game series.

PlatinumDude December 13th, 2010 10:47 PM

While I'm not very fond of Team Plasma's design, I actually like their motives better than the other evil teams. Creating 2 separate worlds for humans and Pokemon is more devious and evil than destroying a universe, recreating it and ruling over it.

The Red Chain December 14th, 2010 10:16 AM

I never did get an attachment of any sort to Team Plasma. It was kinda like they were just -there- to battle.
With Team Rocket and the rest of the teams they had a really solid storyline and held it through the whole game.
Team Plasma didn't have that feel for me as much. My mind might change in the english version, but I highly doubt it.

Their plan just isn't as.. powerful to me..


mikey December 14th, 2010 12:33 PM

I haven't played either games yet, but from what I can tell they seem kind of lame :/ Their outfits are weird.

Team Rocket forever (:

exactly! They obviously push it a bit far, but not only do they have a realistic (for a world full of pokemon) goal, but at times, I've found myself thinking "You know, this guys aren't too far off ... then I remember the stealing :P

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire December 14th, 2010 3:59 PM

I feel like Team Plasma goal was decent for a Team that had to come after the Team that wanted to take over the Universe! So I'm pretty happy with Plasma's goal and overall design :)

miley810 December 14th, 2010 4:21 PM

I feel so dumb,I thought they were keeping Team Galactic,dang......can someone give me some info on team Plasma?

deneric December 14th, 2010 5:13 PM

They're the bad guys from Black/White and are lead by their Sages and another character (no spoilers) and they want to free pokemon from people

Arkywhitegirl December 14th, 2010 5:48 PM

They are nice, but TR will always be my fav, probably due to Nostalgia haha.

deneric December 14th, 2010 8:06 PM

lol yeah, TR will always be the crowd favorite

Well it's kind of hard to surpass remaking the Universe...or reshaping the world...

>Feelings< December 14th, 2010 9:35 PM

Team Plasma was okay. At least they were giving in an attempt, and was cool while carrying it out. Team Rocket was lame in most of their appearances in my opinion.

Team Galactic will probably always be at the top, because Cyrus was a hypnotic leader, a genius, and rich to begin with.
The only thing about about him is that he's a dark, confused soul who didn't really know what he was going to do, a.k.a. psycho.
But the charisma he had, and how everybody did what he said without question, and how he was a pinch away from achieving his goal of becoming God was the most awesome win ever in terms of evil teams.

That said, even if I think Team Plasma is decent, I think N is very awesome if not held together with Team Plasma. The trio, the two ladies, and N - all of them are beings out of this world, and for some reason, Geechisu doesn't feel like that at all.
Moreover, their theme, and specially N's theme is very awesome and dark sounding.

Spoiler:
N also befriended a legendary, so that means he's good at soul, and I will obviously prefer a good person to a bad one.

miley810 December 15th, 2010 7:48 AM

well....by the sound of plasma they seem okay,but TR will always be the favorite team in this girl,Idk why but I always had trouble not laughing when they acnolaged they were on tv....Ik lame right?
I think if I had a choice,they would bring team rocket back,I hope in the B&w tv show they keep team rocket like they usuly do,cause if they didn't I would personly go there and beat the tv writers to death.
Go TR!But yha team plasma seems okay.

Regeneration December 15th, 2010 8:15 AM

I'll be honest. To me, they are nothing more than yet another bunch of jobless villains. :<
