Probably have to go with Team Rocket here, because they seem the most straightforward/organized crime-like out of the bunch. Galactic and Plasma have some interesting ideas and whatnot, but they get needlessly complicated for a children's game about catching and raising animals.

They should let you join the new Team in the new games.

Team Rocket. As they progressed with the other generations of Pokemon, the teams seemed to get more and more complex and "out there" goals.

I find the way that they took over quite a bit of the land, killed the Pokemon of Lavender Tower and genetically engineered Mewtwo to be simple, evil and complex enough. Shame that they don't exactly use the most extravagant Pokemon as their standard, though.

Team Plasma gets bonus points for being rather interesting.
Not immediately an explicitly evil organization (until the end when you find out the truth).

Team Rocket, I mean whatever happen to simply being a world crime organization and not some eco terriost, wanting to recreate the world or liberator?

I voted Plasma, because N's a pretty cool character, and dat music.

Go Team Rocket or go home. Everyone else is just a bunch of posers.

Also, how is it that the Pokemon Universe has so many prominent terrorist organizations operating within the boarders of developed nations?
I think Plasma's the only one to actually make itself publicly known; the rest of them sort of worked behind the scenes.

Most of them never really show up in the field unless you're in their base. Also, the governmental bodies of the Pokéarth seem to be lacking in existence.

I have to pick Team Plasma, if only by the virtue that their plans and methods are actually the most competent of all the teams. Lets review:

Step 1: Make everyone think they're good guys.

Step 2: Capture incredibly-powerful legendary Pokemon.

Step 3: Attack the Pokemon League, and defeat them as a show of power.

Step 4: Convince everyone to release their Pokemon, by telling them that they're being cruel keeping them trapped in Pokeballs, and battling with them.

Step 5: Hack the Pokemon Storage System, and forcefully release every stored Pokemon in the region.

Step 6: Now that no one has Pokemon except you, domination time.

And remember, they were successful with every single step of this plan, too. Were it not for the player beating them in the final battle at the Pokemon League, they'd have won, too.

I went for Magma/Aqua, but only because Emerald is the only Pokemon game I've played thus far, since the only Nintendo product I used to own, before I gave it to my cousin's step-daughter, was a Gameboy Advanced.

I put down aqua/magma for the interesting dynamic and because both the grunts and leader were threatening. The threateningness of the grunts is usually inversely proportional to the threateningness of the leader.

Rocket, I like the outfits more, but far as actually getting shit done?

Plasma, Its worth noting that the game effectively ended AFTER the final battle at the Pokemon League with them, and a loss there means they win and get what they want

Hard to say, I liked Rocket because their goals made sense, exploit Pokemon to make money!

I didn't get Magma and Aquas goals of making more land/sea respectively, but their battle music is just too good...

Galactic's were too vague and made little sense (make a new world from scratch? Why?) but there is this music...

Didn't know much about Plasma so I won't comment on it.

I suppose Rocket wins, especially in HeartGold/SoulSilver, due to the bad-ass leaders.

Are you cracked?





As if magma or aquas themes came CLOSE to that. Fi to you. Fi!

Obviously team Magma/Aqua because they had the best music.


Listening to those hits me right in the nostalgia spot.

Fi to you as well!
