Saw this and wondered if there’d be a few Plasma Grunts who just drop working for the organization after losing to these kids over and over again. Maybe even some of them would become consistent battlers just because they found a new passion for Pokemon battles.

Well it wouldn’t be the losses alone that would push them to that. At least in my au it’s good to keep in mind that during the time period in which Ingo and Emmet had stolen the Unova train system, it was war.

Plasma wasn’t an evil team it was a governing force and the plasma “grunts” were military soldiers. They had order, discipline, training, military tactics and funding. To defect from the military was a big deal. Especially considering this was a civil/revolutionary war. There was no where for defectors to go besides hiding somewhere within the Unova region.

So to defect people usually had to have very good reasons for themselves to both risk punishment so just loosing over and over to two kids would not have been the only reasons to defect. Could have been the last straw on many compounding problems they had with serving though.

The way people saw them and how the twins behaved during those fights. Showing themselves to not be monsters. Because that's what the people who joined the plasma military thought they were fighting. Power hungry monsters that were trying to destroy the region and everyone in it. If anything the Resistane was seen more like an evil team, especially in the beginning. That is exactly how Ghetsis spun it to his own people and other regions.

Seeing Ingo and Emmet off the front lines and acting like people is something that drastically broke down the lies and propaganda people were fed, including for the military since people saw them every day. Course the rest of the resistance had several methods of taring down the veneer of King Ghetsis's lies and propaganda. Ingo and Emmet taking over the Unava train system happened in the last two years of the war. Cracks were already forming in Plasma's carefully constructed Ideals, broken down by the resistance's Truth.

For some the twins were simply the last straw.
