  You kind of ignored the fact that Team Plasma is split between Ghetsis’s truths and N’s ideals and the ones that follow N are trying to atone for their actions.

  Cyrus didn't even fight back against Giratina, he just accepted his fate and was yoinked

  We went from "I will remove every Humans emotions and control my own grey world" to "I got bullied in school"

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzruCThCvsU&amp;t=355">5:55</a> I could never take the protagonist of S/M/US/UM seriously because the team leader would be monologuing about their evil plans and you&apos;re just standing there like 🙂

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzruCThCvsU&amp;t=922">15:22</a> <br>Ironic how half the Gen 2-4 villains use Crobat. <br><br>Crobat always needs friendship to evolve.

  The Villains got less unhinged as the games got a different target audience.

  Regarding ZA; TECHNICALLY... The Rust Syndicate is the &quot;evil team&quot; of the game, in so far as they&apos;re the ones with the motif. They&apos;re sort of a knockoff Yakuza, and their leader was even apparently a former &quot;disciple&quot; of Lysandre. While their goals aren&apos;t exactly evil, their methods are... suspect. I&apos;d basically consider them a slightly more threatening Team Skull. They&apos;re kinda of &quot;Anti-Heroes&quot;, so to speak.

  Team Rocket benefits from the timeless concept of keeping things simple. They&apos;re just as ineffective or meticulous as whatever this week&apos;s evil plan is.

  i will say originally in ruby/sapphire/emerald, the orbs used to awaken kyogre and groudon weren&apos;t the &quot;wrong orbs&quot;, it was meant to be that the orbs would be reversed from the expected order, and instead the orb colour reflected the lines on the legendaries bodies, with kyogre&apos;s lines being red and groudon&apos;s being blue<br>however, they never really drew groudon with blue lines that often, and also just realized that it wasnt very clever or clear what they were doing, so they just retconned the orbs to be the more obvious colours

  Team star wasn&apos;t ever meant to be an evil team. They&apos;re kids who were bullied so much that they ended up forming kind of a safe haven for other bullied students, and grew to the point they could take on the bullies and the school itself for not taking it seriously. Team star is the only &quot;evil team&quot; i haven&apos;t ended up hating because theyre trying to get in my way constantly. <br><br>They&apos;re the most relatable to the target audience and some of the adults that play pokemon. I honestly cried at the storyline because i too was bullied in school. It was a breath of fresh air.

  The fact that cirrus destroyed three landmarks, captured 5 legendary pokemon all the while the region contained two powerhouses (us and cynthia) and still GOT what he wanted and is basically GIRATINA&apos; best friend is still unmatched
