With avant garde uniforms, intentions more grandiose than the previous evil teams we'd been exposed to, and a powerful arsenal of various Pokemon, Team Galactic certainly entered the Pokemon world with a bang.

So, what was your opinion on the schemes of Team Galactic, as well as how they carried them out? From what I've seen, Team Galactic is quite loved among the Pokemon fanbase, but a good number also thought them to be a bit over the top. So, how do you view Team Galactic and everything they're about?

i think that team galatic is one of the better teams or groups in the anime im not a fan of the uniforms they have but i like the pokemon they used i would say that they need to bring back the commanders but as trainers id think they would be good opponets for ash and other trainers other than trying to start a new world

I personally prefer Team Rocket. Team Galactic's choice in wardrobe irritates me a little... makes me think of astronauts... and I'm afraid to death of astronauts. x.x Their pokémon usage is better, though. I had a pain in the neck trying to beat them as compared to the old Team Rocket.

While TG's motives are a bit insane, I like them because of the way they were handled in the anime.

My favorite has always been Team Rocket but they are too silly and dumb for my liking and they're "big plans" were always just to steal pokemon which is a problem but compared to the other evil forces it seems juvenile. Magma and Aqua had terrible plans but again were kind of dumb (the whole Rustboro package theft for instance) but thier leaders were kind of cool and evil. I liked Galactic in terms of "evil organization" because they were rather evil and had terrible goals.

I liked Team Galactic... they had more of a "cult" feeling to them, with the charismatic leader who convinced his underlings to pursue goals that even his direct subordinates (Saturn in particular) didn't know the full extent of. It's absolutely scary how many people Cyrus was able to charm into helping him achieve his misguided goals, as over-the-top as they might have been.

They certainly don't win in terms of fashion sense, though.

I like their high tech, machines buildings and technology (yeah and also the uniform). However, the plans and stuff were kind of a joke and they failed them in the end. (like all the bad guys do)

Well about Team Rocket, in GSC HGSS they planned to use the Radio Tower to possibly control pokemon. Like how they forced the Red Gyarados to evolve. That's pretty evil and sinster if you ask me. But yeah in RBY FRLG they were pretty much just thieves.

Aw, I loved Team Galactic, they were so weird XD

I liked their uniforms, they stood out a lot.

Okay, so their goal was kinda insane but it was mostly Cyrus' goal... I mean, I got the feel that the grunts were kind of left in the dark about the whole entire plan. I mean, they knew what it was but didn't understand the whole of it?

I really liked some of the commanders, though. Commander Saturn was really cool, and I liked how he took over the team after the whole incident with Cyrus at Spear Pillar. Though I don't think that he knew about the whole crazy plan, did he? See, didn't Cyrus leave some guys in the dark about this? I found that because Cyrus did that, he gave off this really evil and creepy feeling.

And Charon was pretty neat, too. I felt a little bad for him about the Rotom story, though.

And I was going off the Platinum version of Team Galactic. ^^ I don't really play Diamond Version anymore.

Giovanni wanted to rule the world, Cyrus wanted to wipe it out completely and make a new one just for himself.

I liked Team Galatic better than any of the past teams. way better than Team Rocket I didn't like their outfits, but there was something about them that I just liked. Their goals were crazy, sure, but in an odd way, they made sense. Cyrus wanted a better world, he just had an insane way of trying to achieve it.

Even though they're not as cool as Team Rocket(imo), I think they're way cooler than Team Magma and Team Aqua in ADV games.

I think they were tied with Team Rocket i coolness. This team was really serious and stuck to their goal. I think what makes them so interesting is that they are deep and mysterious and you still learn stuff about them at the end of the game.

Team rocket = cartoon evil
Team Galactic = evil, but think they're 'making the world better' á la doomsday cult or something.

I personally dislike Team Galatic's choice of outfit. The Galatic Grunts' hairstyle and choice of clothing are odd. If I'm not concentrating much on my game, I might mistake a male grunt for a female one. At least in other games, in my opinion, the male and female physical appearance contrasted enough so that gamers can tell the difference.

Cyrus is a maniac. His goal is far more darker than the any of the other teams in the past. He didn't even care for any of his grunts or officers, only himself. I mean, to most people, that is the characteristic of an evil leader. However, I'd prefer Giovanni over Cyrus anyday.

I liked Team Galactic more than any other.
Team Rocket's goal was a bit lame.
Team Aqua/Magma. All I can say is... Why do they want to create a world without water/land?? WHY??

Team Galactic's goal: To create a new (, better) world. It made me think about stuff like world's situation and nature and people, even real world ones. Should a new world be created?? Would everyone be happier?? Would everything actually be better?? I love the fact that unlike previous villainous teams, Team Galactic (and also Plasma) may not actually be a bad team. Maybe they're just misunderstood?? Maybe they wanted everyone to be happy and stuff. But maybe the fact that everyone would have everything okay would make them sad: If there wasn't sadness and fear there wouldn't be happiness either and vice versa.

BTW, I saw Team Plasma as a Team Galactic rip-off. Their goals are quite alike... Creating new worlds.

I don't really Like team galactic that much and I think that their plans are insane more insane than separating the world or expanding land mass and bodies of water... i mean Creating a new world... that's just insane

side note: I think team rocket has more bigger plans than just petty thievery

Lol @ Team Rocket comment.

I'm not sure if I dislike Team Galactic or what, but a new world leaving the old one on mishap is pretty insane. Though all of them (Aqua/Magma, Galactic and Plasma) except for TR has plans that will destroy the world. Never-ending sunshine/rainfall, Giratina eating everyone, and another dragon war.

I don't think TG's actions will lead to giratina's GI track... It just Distorted the world Giratina won't eat anyone...
