While [[Team Rocket]] has vague goals and is {{wp|Mafia}}-like (or perhaps {{wp|Yakuza}}-like, considering the Japanese background), the other known villainous teams Team Aqua, Team Magma, as well as Team Plasma have clear goals and are {{wp|cult}}-like, fanatically believing that achieving their goals will bring about the best interests of the people of the world. Cipher and Team Snagem work together to steal Pokémon from others and create [[Shadow Pokémon]] from them, while the leader of Team Galactic wishes to recreate the universe in his image with the powers of {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}}. The Go-Rock Squad plan to take over the Pokémon Rangers by capturing powerful Pokémon, making them cause disasters, then commanding the Pokémon to stop by using Stylers so they will be regarded as heroes. [[Team Dim Sun]] plans on using Pokémon to make energy for Altru Inc. and Almia. Each has an iconic leader - [[Giovanni]] (later missing), [[Archie]], [[Maxie]], [[Evice]] and [[Greevil]], [[Gonzap]], [[Cyrus]], [[Gordor]], and [[Blake Hall]] respectively.

Team Rocket had extensive presence in [[Generation I]], including running the [[Celadon Game Corner]], invading [[Silph Co.]], and murdering [[Marowak|at least one Pokémon]]. Even in the {{pkmn|anime}}, where law enforcement officers are clearly present, Team Rocket's activities continue unhindered, as if they were above the law.
