Team Meteor

To eliminate this infestation!
To restore the art of God's own nation!
To break apart the world above!
To find what lies beneath truth and love!
Team Meteor!
Resonating with the eternal light!
Run away now, don't try to fight!
For justice! That's right!
Team Meteor are the primary antagonists of Pokémon Reborn.
==In the game==
Team Meteor is the cause of a number of disasters that strike the Reborn region. They are behind the bombing of the Peridot Train Station,as well as the overgrowth that spreads over the Obsidia, Jasper, and Beryl Wards, through the use of their PULSE Machines. They are also responsible for Reborn's economic state as they destroyed the mega-company Yureyu HQ. It is possible they are also behind some of the environmental troubles of the region, as one of their bases, Blacksteam Factory, causes a huge amount of water pollution, but their motives seem to suggest otherwise.
Team Meteor sometimes runs a number of schemes to steal trainers' Pokémon, such as breaking into homes at night or kidnapping the Day Care Couple and taking their place. Even outside of Reborn City they tend to steal important items like fossils. There are certain times where they will not battle you and you can even talk to them.
==Notable Members==
=== Leaders of Team Meteor ===
==== Solaris ====
The founder and original leader of Team Meteor. He originally operates under the goal of expelling people from the region to preserve its history. Solaris used to control Team Meteor until an ambitious prodigy usurped him and disposed of the members still loyal to him. 
==== Lin ====
The de facto leader of Team Meteor. She was once a grunt, but her ambition and strength allowed her to quickly rise through the ranks of Team Meteor. She transformed Team Meteor away from its original goal into a terrorist organization.
=== Administrators of Team Meteor ===
==== Sirius ====
An unusually cruel and sadistic Team Meteor admin who is the first admin encountered, along with Ace. He wears an eye patch over his left eye, which he had lost from an unexpected assailant while trying to retrieve the Ruby Ring.
==== ZEL ====
A Team Meteor admin who is responsible for the creation of the PULSE machines. ZEL is a hybrid of the consciousness of three people merged into one body due to the evolution of the PULSE Magnezone project: Zero (a Team Meteor grunt, who is the main 'body' of ZEL), Eve (the creator of the PULSE machines), and Lumi (Eve's younger sister). 
==== Ace ====
An affably polite and friendly Team Meteor admin and stage magician. It is later revealed that they joined Team Meteor when they were younger after their own family rejected them. They appear to be reluctant about Team Meteor's goals, yet care strongly about the people within the team. 
==== Taka ====
An oddly friendly admin who is the son of Solaris. Later, it is learned that he joined Team Meteor due to his father's involvement as the leader of Team Meteor, and is actually reluctant to pursue Team Meteor's goals.
=== Other Members of Team Meteor ===
==== Aster & Eclipse ====
Two recurring grunts of Team Meteor, who are first encountered at Mosswater Industrial, and appear several times together following this. The two joined Team Meteor for different reasons, but are assigned as partners for most missions.
==== Corey ====
The former Beryl Ward Gym Leader, who now works as a pharmacist that specializes in Poison-type Pokémon. He joined Team Meteor, intending to serve as a double agent in order to retrieve the Ruby Ring and to take his revenge on Sirius. Later, he committed suicide.
==== Dr. Sigmund Connal ====
The owner of the City Orphanage. He is an associate of Team Meteor, who was approached by Sirius following the raid on the Lapis Orphanage. He agreed to aid Team Meteor in exchange that the children he looked over would be returned to him.
==== El ====
Prior to the founding of Team Meteor, he served as Solaris' butler. After given vision by , he became a devoted follower. He remains to have a close connection with Solaris. He is also a member of the Elite Four and the father of Luna.
==== Cal ====
Formerly the Fire-type Gym Leader, and Blake's younger brother, who joined Team Meteor to prove his worthiness. After being involved in a catastrophe that resulted in Kiki's death, he quit Team Meteor in outrage.
==== Blake ====
An agent of Team Meteor and also Cal's older brother. He joined in order to preserve a respected position in the New World that Team Meteor sought to create. He shows no sympathy nor any remorse towards his brother Cal.
==== Terra ====
A Reborn League Gym Leader who specializes in the Ground type. She was another agent for Team Meteor and a personal friend of Lin. She joined Team Meteor out of boredom.
==== Fern ====
One of the player's main rivals, who at first helps fight Team Meteor with you, and then later on, joins Team Meteor.
== General members of Team Meteor ==
These members are generic grunts and enemies you face throughout your journey. You'll encounter familiar ones you faced before who grow stronger with more Pokémon and are later promoted. Some members even evolve the Pokémon they first battled you with! There are times that you will not battle some of them again due to some unfortunate circumstances.

== Trivia ==
* Many of the grunts and admins of Team Meteor share one common Pokémon, , most likely due to a reference to meteors.
* Team Meteor was based on a roleplay some of the community did in back channels of the online servers when the online league was active. https://amethystblack.tumblr.com/post/614679080373272576
* Solaris, Sirius, Taka, and ZEL were designed by two old community members, Will Dodge and Ice. https://amethystblack.tumblr.com/post/142606240757
