I have yet to play Black and White and the Sequel, but I have heard about Team Plasma's plan in the first one (I have not seen or heard anything about Black and White 2). It's nice to have someone that sounds good and makes you want to route for them. If the twist is what I think it is (The leader being the only really evil one and the followers really believe the PETA plot) that's a good twist, but I think it would be better if he was doing it because he thought he was doing good. That would make you think a little more on who is really right and who is wrong or if there really is a right. Pokemon is good at having very suttle ideas in the back ground. You can play the game as a kid and not see the creepy ideas in play but they are there to make they a little better. This is what makes it one of my favorite series to play, even though I do not play the newer games.

If what I have read about the newer games is true, I want Team Flare to be controlled by Yveltal, since he is the embodiment Evil and Team Flare loves money. That's the best I can think of without following the games as much as you guys. I'm sure that Game Freak can think of a better plot.

I haven't seen anything confirming Z.

Those two games though have changed my expectations in a way that am hoping the team is good plot device and has characters I actually care about like N. In some way or another, the story should at least be on par with the previous games, else this generation, at least for me will fall a bit short.

Whenever they start making a plot, it comes off as stupid.

Black/White
Team Plasma or whatever: We hate Pokemon being used for fights.
Now let's send a clear message and fight...


....with our Pokemon!

Do you now realize why I call them Team PETA?

But your right, the only time they made a really good plot is when there wasn't any and they had you make theories about it. Gary's Raticate, anyone? Pokemon really dosn't have a plot and does not need it. Black and White's plot is still kinda cool though, even with the dumbness attached to the team.
