How can anyone unironically describe the Team Plasma plot as "too deep"?
Ghetsis adopted a little boy who just happens to have the same hair color as him and proceeded to brainwash said boy into a lunatic who believes Pokémon and humans should live separate lives. His endgame: have N act as a poster boy for his "organization" while he—like 97% of the villains in the Pokémon world—steals Pokémon. WOW SO DEEP!11!
And then you have six other oldCaucasian cisgender straight men who do nothing. Plus two woman (also adopted by Ghetsis) who do nothing. And don't forget the three ninjas who guess what? Do nothing.
And people like to talk about how Team Plasma is a great villainous team. HAHA.
B2W2 is a little better in that department because Ghetsis's master plan is news to no one and so we don't have to sit through that and Colress is sorta kinda interesting. And Zinzolin (one of the old men) gets to do something this time.
This could be easily adapted into the anime. But maybe the writers saw right through the bullshit and decided to go with a different shade of shit? Best Wishes was a mess. They weren't really trying. The writers were probably "screw the games' plot" rather than "this won't sit well with our audience".
