In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Team Magma's goal is to increase the landmass of the Hoenn region; because of this they have a bitter rivarly with Team Aqua. To reach their goal they aim at capturing Groudon, the land Pokémon that had been sleeping in the Seafloor Cavern for a long time, after its battle with [[Kyogre]], the water Pokémon. Their plans were foiled by {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}. After his plans becoming unsuccessful, Maxie went insane because he had bonded with the orbs and stated to destroy the Hoenn region with Archie. His plans were again foiled by Ruby and Sapphire.


In the manga Team Magma appears much less organized than their game and anime counterparts. The administrators instead number as three, with Courtney and Tabitha joined by [[Blaise]] to comprise the [[Three Fires]], with Maxie as their only superior. Unlike the anime and games, in Pokémon Adventures, the Three Fires are seen to be allowed to carry out Maxie's orders in whatever way they see fit, and perhaps as a result of the lack of central leadership, do not show much respect towards Maxie at all.
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Team Magma are depicted at first as a lesser force compared to [[Team Aqua]]; their hideout is confined to a hole in the [[Route 111|desert]], and movement of the team in large numbers is often limited. Also, due to Aqua Leader [[Archie]] being in charge of [[Hoenn TV]] at the time, Team Magma operations were frequently reported by the media. However, Team Magma knew about the existence of the [[Colored orbs|Red and Blue Orbs]] before Team Aqua did, so were able to claim an advantage, albeit temporary, over their rivals during the climax of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}.


Unlike in other media where they are shown to have several types of Pokémon, Team Magma members specialize strictly in the {{t|Fire}} type in Pokémon Adventures.
Operations were mainly carried out by the [[Three Fires]], a trio of [[Magma Admin]]s. They successfully stole the Scanner from the [[Abandoned Ship]], using them to track the Orbs to [[Mt. Pyre]] where they stole them from the elderly couple that lived atop the mountain. Their awareness of the Orbs may have been passed to them by [[Zinnia]] during a flashback in the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}.
 
Also in the remake arc, despite the return of the original team leader [[Maxie]], there existed a new incarnation of the team known as '''Neo Team Magma''' (Japanese: '''新生マグマ団''' ''Neo Magma Gang''), headed by new incarnations of [[Courtney]] and [[Tabitha]], who claimed that their names were simply codenames used by Magma Admins. This team mainly served to co-operate with Zinnia.
