Aqua and Magma

[ansem the wise]

dudez aqua would rule the world, ever heard the story of noah?

[Mystical Jackal]

In my opinion Team Magma and Aqua were a bunch of retards, not as much as the next criminal teams (Galactic and Plasma), but none of them are as much original as Team Rocket.

Their plan (expanding the sea or land) is catastrophic, in a degree that the effects would destroy/harm themselves eventually.

[McNugget]

While I would side with Magma because more land sounds better than more sea, I have to say both were at fault but both were trying (and failing) to do good, they just took it to extremes. In my opinion, it turned from a true goal to a rivalry.
It seemed like they had good intentions but they were taken way too far by the rivalry aspect. I don't think they ever wanted to hurt anyone/anything, just expand to help mankind without thinking of consequences.

But in my opinion, you can survive a drought easier than a flood.

[Charmed]

I guess I liked Team Aqua more since their goal would have helped Pokemon more than humans, but I also kind of liked Team Magma because they had better uniforms in my opinion. It's really hard to side with either one of them completely though because they were still villainous groups that put Hoenn through hell just to satisfy their desires.

I liked Team Magma's outfits and I think they had a fair point. The earth is 75% water it can afford 25% more land

[Master Ask]

I personally like Team Magma's outfits a lot more than Team Aqua's.. Plus, Team Aqua woke me up >_>

No they wanted to get rid of water and make everywhere land with the power of groudons drought.

My Views on Team Magma and Team Aqua Were That They Were Two Amazing Villainous Teams in The Hoenn Region. Both Teams Having Similar Goals in Using Ancient Pokemon For There Own Needs to Built a Better World. But There Rivalry Is a Result of The Two Teams Having Different Beliefs. Team Magma's Ultimate Goal is to Expand The Amount of Landmass in the World by Awakening Groudon While Team Aqua's Ultimate Goal is to Expand The Amount of Water in The World by Awakening Kyogre. I Thought That Team Magma and Team Aqua Had Great Outfits and Great Ideas and Plans to Achieve there Goals Hankered by Great Leaders in Maxie (Team Magma) and Archie (Team Aqua). Team Magma and Team Aqua's Admins should have been more Involved in The Anime, Games, and Manga's. The Climax between Team Magma and Team Aqua Happened When The Great Battle Between Groudon and Kyogre Occured, Resulting in Both Ancient Pokemon Taking to Rest in Underground Magma (Groudon) and Marine Trench (Kyogre). Maxie and Archie decided to End there Feud after seeing The Disaster they have Caused. With All of That being Said, I Thought That Hoenn Introduced a Pretty Cool Concept of Having Two Villainous Teams in The Pokemon Franchise.

I personally always like Aqua better because I thought Magama was stupid for wearing coats inside of a volcano

lol.

I also prefer Aqua because their ambition is slightly lighter than Magma's and I never liked fire to begin with.

[ashiemore]

I prefer them to team rocket but still think they're evil. I mean, you're trying to awaken a pokemon that only exists in legends. Just cause you want to make the land/sea bigger. I like Team Aria better (Rayquaza)

[Elnava]

That said, I prefer Plasma to all other teams(if you couldn't tell)

[nathandg0924]

I have to say that I didn't like the idea of both teams, rather crazy I must say. But between the two, team Aqua of course is better because they seem to have a better conviction, has an advantage over magma and their uniform makes more sense than magma.

Team Magma they make a pretty good point, nice outfits, and they like fire Pokemon just like me.

[Shinedown Gracer Abusoru Zoroāku]

Team Aqua for moi, they're awesome... and I love water types... but not as much compared to the Dark Types...

[Shymain]

Yeah, the idea was sorta unrealistic... Super-crazy people with ideals that were over exaggerated to the point it was stupid... But personally, I supported Magma. They had a cooler outfit, a creative base in Emerald and wouldn't kill people by flooding them, like Aqua would.

[Shadow_07]

I love both, honestly. ;-; I'd love for them to get along and form one awesome and evil team, though. >:3

[Yambino]

They had interesting Ideas, and I guess it was a way for ruby and sapphire to be more diverse. But I feel like they needed.....polishing. For one thing, the only pokemon that differentiated the two was NumelCamerupt and Carvahna/Sharpedo. Both had the weak poochyena and zubat evolutions. Also, why did team aqua steal the meteorite in Sapphire and bring it to mount chimney? Were they simply trying to prevent team magma from causing the volcano to erupt to expand land? But then.....why did they bring to the volcano in the first place? Did team magma take it from them at one point, bring it to mount chimney, and Team Aqua interfered before team Magma could complete the task? I guess when emerald was made, gamefreak fixed this...

@Shymain
Team Magma didnt want to kill people with floods....they just wanted to kill people with lava from mount chimney

[tomatohater]

Overall, I preferred Team Aqua over Team Magma, as Sapphire is my Favourite Game of ALL TIME and I like Kyogre more than Groudon. I do like Magma's outfits more though.
