Galactic, original Plasma, Flare, Aether and Cosmos was perceived as philantropic organizations before being btfo'ed by the MCs, while Skull and Yell only regarded as nuisance at worst. So it's not surprising that most of them were initially ignored, allowing them to grow in power and membership, a standard definition of cults as other anons already mentioned. In conclusion, Pokeworld Interpol are really that incompetent to begin with.
