The leaders of Team Dim Sun appear to use intimidation as a means of controlling the grunts they command. [[Wheeler]] is shown to be slightly nervous around [[Blake Hall]], despite being his closest adviser. Also, when the player defeats the grunts and admins on the deck of the [[Cargo Ship|cargo ship]], they would rather jump off the side of the ship than face [[Kincaid]]'s wrath. However, the Team Dim Sun Crimson Unit does not seem to be afraid of [[Lavana]]. They admire her greatly and run to her for help immediately. | The leaders of Team Dim Sun appear to use intimidation as a means of controlling the grunts they command.

===Team Dim Sun Crimson Unit=== | |||
The Team Dim Sun Crimson Unit is entirely under the command of [[Lavana]], a member of the [[Sinis Trio]]. All Crimson Unit members are female and very "girly," indicating a possible prejudice against males on Lavana's part. The Crimson Unit consists of both grunts and members who appear to be of the administrator rank. In addition, every member appears to be obsessed with her makeup and gets mad at the player for ruining it in [[Volcano Cave]]. They first appear with Lavana when she tries to take the [[Red Gem]] from Volcano Cave. | The Team Dim Sun Crimson Unit is entirely under the command of [[Lavana]], a member of the [[Sinis Trio]].

===Team Dim Sun Marine Unit=== | ====Team Dim Sun Marine Unit==== | ||
The Team Dim Sun Marine Unit is a Dim Sun operations unit that works entirely underwater. The best swimmers from Team Dim Sun are apparently required to be in this unit, as becomes evident when a grunt who jumped off the [[Cargo Ship]] and swam home was later forced into it. The Marine Unit is only encountered when the player travels to the [[Sea of Wailord]] and witnesses four restraining machines holding a {{p|Wailord}} in place. When the player foils the Marine Unit's plan to capture a Wailord, they take away a {{p|Wailmer}}, hoping to bluff their way through and call it a Wailord Mini. | The Team Dim Sun Marine Unit is a Dim Sun operations unit that works entirely underwater.

* Team Dim Sun's plans were similar to those of [[Cipher]] in {{g|Colosseum}}. Both of them have an undercover boss playing a major role in the region ([[Blake Hall]] as President of Altru and [[Mayor Es Cade]] ([[Evice]]) as Mayor), both build a tower incorporating into their plans ([[Altru Tower]] and [[Realgam Tower]]) and make Pokémon lose their memories ([[Gigaremo units]] and [[Shadow Pokémon]]). Also, they are final bosses of their respective games, and can be re-battled at will. | *Team Dim Sun's plans were similar to those of [[Cipher]] in {{g|Colosseum}}.

* "Dim Sun" is possibly a reference to the style of Chinese food known as {{wp|dim sum}}. This similarity is referenced in the [[Ranger Quest]] "Team Dim Sun's Appetite". Upon completion of the Quest, the [[Boyleland]] Elder remarks regarding a Team Dim Sun grunt: "I have no love for Team Dim Sun. But you are merely a hungry man who could go for some dim sum!" | *"Dim Sun" is possibly a reference to the style of Chinese food known as {{wp|dim sum}}.

*Along with the [[Phobos Battalion]], Team Dim Sun is one of the few villainous team not to have a logo based on a letter. | |||
