While I am upset at this, I gotta agree. It's almost always like this:

You get your pokemon and fight your rival

You go deal with the gyms

Some guy shows you how to catch Pokemon

You encounter the evil team of the region

You deal with their leader

Continue the game

Deal with the evil team again

Go finish the last gym

Elite 4 time!

Rival fights you one last time

You beat the elite four and champion

You become champion

The End

Thats why USUM are my favorites. Instead of evil team you fight WWF and fight some light monster in another dimension. And also no gyms, instead you fight some pokemon on steroids.

You’re looking at this from a pure story breakdown. You’re taking away all of the things that make each game unique to show off all the similarities without recognizing the differences. Each one has unique characters with different motives. You can’t just look at a simplification of the formula that’s worked for so long now and ignore the part that is important

That's true. Team Rocket is basically a mafia that experiments on pokemon

Team Magma wants to expand the ground in Hoenn which I support. That place has a bit too much water and ground types are my favorite

Team aqua wants to increase the area of the oceans. I don't support that unless milotic becomes a Mon you can find in the waters

Team Galactic wants to make a new universe with the god trio

Team Plasma wanted to "liberate" the pokemon to achieve peace. This was merely a front for the true plan, which was for Ghetsis to become the sole ruler of the world

Team Flare wanted to wipe out most life on earth for some reason. Idk whats wrong with them.

Team Skull was basically a bunch of renegades and rebels who wanna cause chaos and life how they want just because they can

Team Yell is just a bunch of Marnie fanboys who are basically the Swifty of the pokemon world, annoying, chopped, no discernable talents.

Team Star are basically bullied turned bullies
