So, what crimes has Team Hypno actually... committed? I don't think brainwashing people is technically illegal (otherwise cults like Peoples Temple and Scientology would never have gained traction), and that's all they seem to have done.

On another note, why is Cynthia, in essence just a celebrity sports personality, needed to eliminate an allegedly criminal organization? Are the cops that useless?

Also who uses a landline anymore

It looks like they're guilty of the most heinous crime of all: Poorly delivered exposition.

This is Pokemon. Of course the police are useless. Why else would they always have to rely on brats to foil the region team's plan?

Does it really count as kidnapping, though? Coercion I'll grant you, though.

Seeing how they've been openly brainwashing women out on the streets several times. Yes, I would count kidnapping. I would also consider any gymleader or ranger who willingly joins a Team calling itself Hypno is also coercion and kidnapping. Since they're not actually willingly doing it.

Time to show my nerd in here!
In several continuities, League Champions and Gym Leaders are often seen as national and local defenders, dealing with issues in their communities (or nations, in the case of the champions). This is largely because though they are sports personalities, the animals they train could easily be classified as Weapons of Mass Destruction, and Champions and Gym Leaders are supposed to be the best at training those living WMDs.

Thus if/when Ash shows up in your area, insurance rates likely skyrocket...

True this thing would be shut down so fast it wouldn't even be funny. They'd have all the gym trainers all the male gym leaders and Elite 4/champions who vastly outnumber the total of all those this team would be dead and everyone freed.
