New X and Y evil team!

Yea Orange suits!!!!

 

I think that maybe there will be a second group, like of like Gen 3's Aqua and Magma. Since the Kalos region has already been described as oh-so-massive I think the region is big enough for us to get one, or maybe two more evil teams in the game. Maybe they're releasing Team Flare right now so that when the game comes out there will be another evil team that you meet before meeting Team Flare that will get you super confused and GameFreak can be amused by the poor, innocent people who play the games faster than others going, "No! You meet Team Flare later!"

This is getting ridiculously long, so goodbye... xD

 

I sort of find it a little ironic that they're the new criminal team and that they're wearing orange suits. XD
I'm kinda interested on knowing more about this team. I hope they don't have Zubats, Rattata, Mightyena, or other super common Pokémon that past teams used xD

 

In the trailer it showed them using Houndour. I don't know if that means they're definitely using Houndour in-game, but there's a good chance it does. There hasn't been an evil team with Houndour yet, but they might be super common in this new region...

 

I dunno man, my first thoughts were "lol look at their hair" it just looks so silly with that little tuft of hair sticking out like a mini-ice cream

I gotta admit that their uniform is pretty cool, tho. They've got a cool symbol too (wait a minute, "cool" doesn't seem fitting for a fire-type team...)

it kinda looks like a head with its mouth open
Let's just hope they're more than just a bunch of generic money-making group of villains.

 

I find them really weird. In a nice way. Their hair is so THREATENING!! But I love their uniforms. Very mafia-esque. With those awesome shades.

 

Any team that can get away from using dark types is great in my book. Dark types aren't evil themselves, but they always get that stereotype. Its time for some change!

 

Well Dark type is Evil type in Japan.

Anyway I think they look interesting and I can't wait to see how they tie into the story.

 

Thank you... Just for saying this...

I agree though. In the trailers, unfortunately, it has shown them using Houndour. I would rather see them use something like Darmanitan or Arcanine.

That doesn't mean they, themselves, are evil though. Absol: he goes down to warn people about natural disasters hoping to save their lives, just to get rocks chucked at him. Darkrai: risked his life to save a city full of a bunch of people who were appalled by him.

 

How would being an Evil type mean that you aren't evil? Most dark types are characterised by having evil, sinister, or otherwise misaligned natures.

For example, Sneasel and Weavile are sneaky, devious thieves. Honchkrow is effectively a boss of a Mafia of Murkrows. Houndour and Houndoom are fire demons. Tyranitar is insolent and uncaring, as well as a large-scale vandal.

One way or another, dark types are personified as having fairly evil natures.

 

They are the swankiest-looking Team I've seen; they have suits instead of jumpsuits after all! Love their hair too. I feel they should break into doing Gangnam Style and second, with their sunglasses and all.

 

While I generally like the villainous characters in games/books/whatever, I can't say that I can believe that all Dark Types are "evil". That's like calling a whole race evil! I'll admit I'm stretching it, but the Dark Type is a type, or race, of Pokémon if you will. Just like in the other types, some will be good, some will be evil. Some will be misunderstood based on looks and the false perceptions of people. Some will be looked at as "evil" based on nothing more than what they have to do to survive. There's a difference between "evil" and "brutal". No matter what the Japanese call the Type, I'll still think of it as not evil, but closer to brutal. Not nice, but not bad, as a whole.

I don't even care if you think what I just said it completely stupid, or have something to counter it. This is what I think, and I never said you had to agree.

 

I'm really glad about our new enemies. They don't want to rule the world or the galaxy or change it into land or sea blah blah...
Maybe Team Flare plan that too we dont know so far.
They only want to make money ;D
Thats cool!

 

I could hear the cosplayers' sewing machines starting when I first saw Team Flare.

But seriously, I think they look cool. At first I was like "What....uh...these guys are WEEEEIRD." But now that I look at them, I see that they don't sound too bad. I'm going to wait until I see their intentions to judge.

 

All that's been confirmed about there intentions, that I know of... I haven't checked Serebii yet today, is that they want money.

 

Dark is not evil in itself. You have light, you have dark. Opposites, but neither are paralleled with good or evil. Take umbreon for example...

 

Dark = Evil and Light = Good is just one of the many false perceptions of evil. The reason we think that way is because we can't see in the dark, so instinct screams to find light, or hide. Light being good, is just the opposite. We see in light, and therefore know what emerges from the Light, so it's something we take as being good.

 

I like everything about the new evil team so far, except their name. Team Flare just sounds so generic.
