Its the League of Raging Gingers! Formerly known as Plasma Grunts.

Seriously? Same Region, both bad guy teams are Gingers. Too coincidental to be anything else.

tj4bigred April 25th, 2012 7:19 PM

This is gonna sound crazy, but I feel like there might not be an evil team. I think the bad guy in this game is Kyurem, and these lovely red-haired people right here are just an environmental organization created to fix the sudden freeze caused by one (two?) dragon(s). Just guessing but it sounds believable to me.


And why is professor suddenly evil? I know he has a "I'm a nice guy with hidden intentions" feel to him, but maybe GameFreak expected everyone to immediately peg him as a bad guy. I for one think he's a nice person with no global domination schemes up his sleeves.

"Aku" means "evil".
"Kuro" means "black".

In other words, THIS GUY'S A VILLAIN. What don't you get?

garjora April 26th, 2012 6:51 AM

Hm I wonder what the new team will be called.

Not necessarily. He could just be a bad person and not be a villian, but either way that's a discussion for the Akuroma thread tbh.

Maybe something medieval, like vikings or something, idk.

You know, I really hope that Team Plasma isn't replaced in this game, I really hope that they just have a new motive and have no massive changes other than a new leader at the most...

StMRyEire April 26th, 2012 1:22 PM

I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll be facing off against Team Plasma again but obviously under new leadership. Perhaps the new professor is the leader? He kinda gave me a Ghetsis-esque vibe when I looked at him, but that could have just been me.

blue April 26th, 2012 1:35 PM

There were kinda some lose ends that needed to be tied up with Team Plasma so although we haven't had any information on them for these games, we haven't had much information at all they could easily make a reappearance alongside another villainous team, Ruby & Sapphire had two teams, right?.

Zayphora April 26th, 2012 2:55 PM

If you watch the trailer, Akuroma appears with his book in a way that very much reminds me of the first time we see Cyrus in the opening sequence for Platinum. Just my opinion, but he seems like he has an ulterior motive if not an evil plan.

I hope they don't continue with the medieval theme. It was a nice fresh touch, but its not my favorite. But maybe I am depreciating it. It will most likely be used. I wouldnt mind a team called the Vikings, as long as they made it unique. Doesn't really fit the police-looking thing though. I still think Nova would be a great idea. That could be a good name for a reformed Plasma, too. Nova means new, as in new motive, new ideals....new freaky-haired leader....Yeah.

Killjoy April 26th, 2012 3:12 PM

If they do replace Plasma, I hope the new team dresses a little less ridiculously.

But the game isn't set in Minnesota!!! (first movie lol)


They should dress like butlers and Chamber Maids.

Ironically, that costume would be less ridiculous than normal.

Team Rocket could come back and start a Pokemon War. Though, from the screen shots we have seen, it is probably not Team Rocket.

I like Nova. :3 Might actually be possible too, since supernova and that... Kyurem comes from space!

Ya, not imo really, team rocket doesn't really invest in ginger-haired people. :x Purple and red? Sure, but seems to be Unova-exclusive according to the games lool.

Totally in agreement. I have no idea where they thought they were going with the whole "Knights in Badly Sewn Hoodies" thing. One word- UGH.

Nova is perfect to be honest.

Also, I wouldn't really judge by the sprite. We've barely seen the actual designs unfortunately. I think I'll believe these people are an actual new evil organization when we see a screenie of a battle scene with one or two of them. That, or Team Plasma's new look.

Zayphora April 26th, 2012 4:15 PM

If GAME FREAK doesn't use the name Nova now, they will later. Like in 6th Gen. Unfortunately I won't see it as I don't own a 3DS and will probably never get one.

Palamon April 27th, 2012 4:35 PM

I doubt Team Aqua or Team Magma will make an appearance in Unova. But perhaps they will have a new leader will appear because I can't see Ghetsis returning in B/W2.

I don't really see a new team, tbh. The "red and blue things" around the region were mentioned in the context of this image:

http://i.imgur.com/7PnKa.png

Which looks far from evil and much more like a Musical addition than an evil team's base. If they did bring in a new evil team, I would guess they would bring in a brand new one instead of an old one across an entire ocean.


Actually, I saw this on YouTube, its some sort of movie (somewhere around there) theater, and it could be a side quest.
There isn't anymore known about it, at the moment anyway.
I highly doubt team Magma and team Aqua will appear. Gamefreak will probably never do that, unless the make a re-make of Sapphire and Ruby.

Zayphora April 29th, 2012 7:53 AM

I really doubt that that thing is about Magma and Aqua. It just doesn't look like it.

I would like team galactic back... I found them quite funny idk why. But It's very unlikely. I want to see N back again though.

TBH I could see them back as a side quest...maybe to get Giratina? I just want to see Cyrus back xDDD

mikey April 29th, 2012 11:53 AM

I hope Plasma isnt in this game, they were such a joke. I highly doubt that Aqua and Magma are in these games. I think there will be a complete new team in these games.

Zayphora April 29th, 2012 4:27 PM

Do you think that the Shadow Triad will show up at all? What about Looker? Will they play any part in the evil team plot?

Just realized that the police-looking people could be more of Looker's International Police group...but they don't really look the part. They look like they have a definite template. Also, why would they use an equal amount of male and female sprites for them if they were just a security group? GAME FREAK may have just been trying not to be biased, but it looks a bit weird to me.

Incepticon April 29th, 2012 7:05 PM

I would love in if they incorporated the old evil teams into the newer games. I mean they wouldn't NOT try to take over other regions.

Zayphora May 2nd, 2012 4:22 PM

Yeah...Like if I was an evil team, and I had just had an epic fail, I would definitely run to another area and make trouble there! *Not being sarcastic btw*

Zelda May 11th, 2012 8:18 PM

So we can see Team Plasma in the background of a Coro Coro scan, who could these guys in black possibly be? u_u; Unless Team Plasma are here for a whole different cause, this mysterious organization might not be evil after all?
