An Evil Team Appears!

Team Anti-Go...lol. They sit in certain places and just wait for you to show up and steal your Pokemon.
 
I imagine they'd have Mewtwo as their mascot and it'd probably just be Team Rocket honestly haha. Usually spin-off games tend to treat legendaries as something of a given for the evil team to have and Mewtwo seems like the most fitting one available to me. I'm not at all sold on the Rocket part but Mewtwo fits them! I don't personally think there will be an evil team at all in GO, but if there is I can see that happening.
 
I don't think there will be an evil team, but if there were, it would probably be Rocket. I'm not sure how it could be implemented without being an annoyance; if they jumped out at you and force you to battle when you were trying to track something down and catch it it would be very irritating. Perhaps they could have grunts spawn on the map (sort of like how Pokemon appear) and you could choose to battle them by tapping on them? And then if you win you get stardust and maybe 1-2 coins and if you lose they take some stardust?
 
Team Rocket would be a good fit, and Mewtwo is a good idea for their mascot, given Giovanni's connection to it. Perhaps they would appear at a rarer Pokemon spawn and force you to battle them as they try to capture it too, it would be an interesting dynamic to see an evil team in GO and that's another thing for Niantic to add in order to keep players interested in the game.
 
There already is an evil team out there, the botters and cheaters. They have their bot programs running, play from home, cheat their way to level 35+, and then they drop a CP 2600 Exeggutor into your local gym without ever physically showing up there.

On top of being able to make gyms really unfun, the cheaters and botters also cause server instability issues, making the game less fun for everyone.
 
I think one of the GPS spoofers near me has been banned, I used to see her "fighting" a gym but there was no one else in the area but haven't seen her name in the local gyms for almost 2 weeks now. Another person I know was GPS spoofing is still around though
