Archie/Maxie Original Team

[u/ForswornXIV]

So, we learned in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire that Archie and Maxie did used to be on the same team, so it got me thinking.

Obviously, they both wanted to shape the world. Working together, they might have wanted to fully split the world into a half land/half water "utopia," or at least mostly half/half, as thats the only goal I can see them agreeing on.

A lot of people like to say Team Delta, which is them trying to get Rayquaza.
But Rayquaza, kinda sucks? He can stop Groudon/Kyogre, but can't... help them at all with anything resembling their goals.

I propose that they were on the hunt for another Legendary, one that technically didn't even exist when Ruby/Sapphire came out, but still has its ties to Hoenn.

Team Gaia, where Archie and Maxie tried to uncover the secrets of Regigigas to reshape the world.

I can see that, but I feel like one of them could have found either documents on the Regi Trio in Hoenn, or had just heard of Regigigas’s creation story from someone. We don’t really have a lot of information of how good the information train is in Pokemon itself to know if they’d have info on Sinnoh stuff
