Team Magma (Japanese: マグマ団 Magma-Dan, Italian: Team Magma) is one of the villainous teams to be found in Hoenn. Team Magma's goal is to raise and expand the landmasses of the world with the power of Groudon. The leader of Team Magma is Maxie.

In the game

Team Magma is made up of three different ranks.

• Grunts - The lowest ranking members
• Admins - High-level managers who oversee devious projects. There are only two on Team Magma.
• Leader - In the case of Team Magma, Maxie.

Their Pokémon include Numel for Grunts, Camerupt, Golbat, Mightyena, and Poochyena; in general, they use a mix of Flying-, Poison-, and Fire-types.

In the anime

Team Magma only appears several times, searching for clues on the ancient Pokémon Groudon. Their leader, Maxie, never even touches a Poké Ball, much less control Groudon. While returning to base in a submarine, they acidentally pick up Ash and company, who are discovered by Maxie. In the anime, Team Magma functions as a complete organization,and respect is always shown.

There are many grunts and two admins, such as Harland, or Tabitha. Bannai's (Brody) status is unknown; he may be an admin or a very experienced grunt.

Their Pokémon usually include Houndoom and Mightyena. Bannai's team includes a Ditto.

In the manga

Team Magma is still consisted of three different ranks, just as the two above. Instead of admins, you have the FireHeads Trio, composed of three trainers with specialties relating to the use of fire. Hokage, Kagari and Homura. Their leader is Maxie (Matsubusa). In the manga, Team Magma is fairly unorganized, functioning in a rather 'barbaric' way. Basically, Maxie gives an order, and the three FireHeads can carry out the orders in any way they wish to. Unlike the anime, they show absolutely no respect towards their leader.

Their Pokémon include Camerupt, Numel, Slugma, Magcargo, Torkoal, and Ninetales.
