https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_pig

Historical accounts of incendiary pigs or flaming pigs were recorded by the military writer Polyaenus[7] and by Aelian.[8] Both writers reported that Antigonus II Gonatas' siege of Megara in 266 BC was broken when the Megarians doused some pigs with combustible pitch, crude oil or resin, set them alight, and drove them towards the enemy's massed war elephants. The elephants bolted in terror from the flaming, squealing pigs, often killing great numbers of their own soldiers by trampling them to death.

I think it's entirely in keeping with their portrayed intelligence that they lack the basic color-identification skills of a kindergartner.

Much, much dumber.

Flare like, knows what they're doing and generally almost succeeds. They have stupid outfits and are fairly underdeveloped, but they're like normal tier pokemon villain dumb.

Aqua/Magma can't tell the color of an orb and when they release the legendary, and it does exactly what they predict/want it to do, they're like "Oh.... poo poo. Sorry I guess flooding everying/drying up the sea was bad! Help us 10 year old."

Say what you will about Lysandre, but I doubt he would have come crying to a 10 year old if his death laser started actually killing people.

Probably, I mean, that's what happens with their other plans in these shorts.

I will always like Archie and Aqua way more because his everything is stupid, but at least his intelligence is presented as him being kinda a pirate that wants to let the big fishie out to do legendary stuff, while Maxie and Magma are all full of super scientists and never go "wait, increased landmass via sunlight would kill many pokemon species and be a powerful hit against drinkable water while we get very little landmass gain, in fact the water level would probably end up rising according to my middle-school knowledge of basic science"

The best part is that the reason they were doing that was to expand the landmass through the eruption. When the volcano was nowhere near any water.

Calaveron posted:

Their motives were even dumber. All Team Aqua wanted to do was to increase the size of the oceans and stuff. When Hoenn already had like a ton of water in it.
