Team Galactic: Difference between revisions

Team Galactic (Japanese: ギンガ団 Ginga Dan) is the villainous organisation in Sinnoh. Among other things, they try to entice Pokémon to do their bidding, attempt to invite the region's Pokémon professor to do research for them, steal people's Pokémon, steal Lucas/Dawn's Pokédex, and threaten Lucas/Dawn.

Unlike past criminal syndicates, the existence of Team Galactic is an openly advertised fact, even broadcasting television commercials requesting the donation of Pokémon, although their genuinely criminal operations remain covered-up. Team Galactic wants to catch the Pokémon that created the world: Dialga of time and Palkia of Space, as well as Mesprit, Azelf, and Uxie so that their leader, Cyrus, can destroy the universe and rebuild it in his own image with himself as an absolute god.

Admins and Boss

Also according to an issue of CoroCoro, all of the Commanders of Team Galactic are named after planets:

• Commander Mars
• Commander Saturn
• Commander Jupiter
• Boss Cyrus

Trivia

Although "Team Galactic" is not incorrect, a more literal translation of the Japanese is "Galaxy Gang", possibly a reference to the Galaxy Gang in Pulseman.
