Villainous Team

Look, don't fight me on this; I think GameFreak's intent is clear. The villainous group of Pokemon Sun and Moon is Aether Foundation. Denying they're a villainous team is simply wrong. Their boss is the main antagonist, it's her organization, so under her it is a villainous group with a benevolent facade. It took more than Lusamine alone to establish the stasis pods in her house, conduct the Type: Full experiments, search for the Ultra Wormholes, and so on. They follow her orders, so they are the villainous team (regardless of their personal thoughts on the matter). Denying that status based on the lack of 'team' in the title is also just petty semantics, and also a double standard as Cipher is counted and it lacks the word 'team' as well.

I'll just refer you to Talk:Villainous team#Aether Foundation? and Talk:Alola#Regional Villains for now. Tiddlywinks (talk) 13:05, 16 July 2017 (UTC)


Member listings

Should Mohn be listed as one of the foundation's former members? I just find it weird that Lillie and Gladion, neither of whom were actual staff members and were just the children of the organisation's president, are listed as members while Mohn, who was a professor and one of the foundation's highest authorites, isn't. Hell, at some points the way the games talked about it almost made it seem like to me that he was the former president and Lusamine took over after his Ultra Wormhole accident.

Was it explicitly stated he worked at Aether? Yes, he and Lusamine were together, but Aether isn't the only laboratory dedicated to researching Ultra Wormholes. Also, why would Mohn be the former president when it was Lusamine's father who created Aether as a whole? Ataro (talk) 22:22, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
I certainly think it's worth discussing whether Gladion and Lillie should be removed from the "former members". If they were only at Aether Paradise in the roles of Lusamine's children, not as members/employees, then they shouldn't be on the template (or they should at least be labeled with something different than "former members").
