[Unpopular Opinion] Team Yell Is Not an Evil Team, It Is a Depiction of Hooligans And Does a Goob Job at Doing so

If you want a good depiction of a team representative of a group of a hooligans, look no further than Team Skull.

I said this elsewhere, but Team Skull is more than a comic relief team, they are a group who has a clear backstory that is actually relatable for a lot of people. Team Skull is made up of youths who tried the Island Challenge, failed, and were essentially forgotten about by society. When one has no clear direction in life, the natural response is to either seek out others who are in the same boat or lash out against the system that put them in this position, and Team Skull embodies this to a tee, from the lowliest grunt to Guzma himself.

As a result, the members of Team Skull (besides being physical clones) feel human as a result of being able to understand their wants, needs, and desires.

Team Yell is team with the following identity: they are dark pokemon trainers and they accompany Marnie in a chaperone role literally because someone told them to do it...and that is it. They are not a good depiction of hooligans, nor are they even human. They are a living, breathing plot device.
