The Team Galactic HQ (Japanese: ギンガ団アジト Ginga-dan Hideout) is the main center of Team Galactic's operations. It is located in Veilstone City, Sinnoh.
As well as housing numerous machinery used to experiment with Pokémon, it provides hospitality to its members, encouraging health and energy in order to help execute Team Galactic's plans.

Geography
Team Galactic HQ
The Team Galactic HQ serves as the first place the player learns about the Red Chain, and Cyrus's plan to use Dialga/Palkia's power to destroy the universe and recreate it under his control.
The player cannot explore the headquarters past the lobby of the Galactic Veilstone Building until they get access to an underground passageway behind a locked door in the Galactic Warehouse. The door in the warehouse can only be opened by the Storage Key after the player visits Lake Acuity. A Galactic Key found there will also allow the player to access the entire headquarters.
Once inside, the player must make their way through the HQ, constantly battling grunts. They finally reach the top, where they meet Cyrus. He tells them about the Team Galactic plan to recreate the universe, almost unknown to anyone other than the Commanders. Cyrus then engages in battle with the player. When defeated, Cyrus begins his trek to the Spear Pillar. The player encounters Saturn and CharonPt, who guards the Legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit, who are all held in a machine. Saturn explains their capture: to take the jewels off those Pokémon in order to create a Red Chain, a mechanism used to shackle and control the Pokémon who created Sinnoh. After battling and defeating Saturn, Team Galactic obtains the Red Chain. After the end of the game, while Cyrus is missing, Saturn is left in charge of the building and the remnants of the membership. No longer the headquarters, the Team Galactic HQ's name is changed to the Galactic Veilstone Building.

The Team Galactic HQ is apparently both a housing area for Team Galactic members as well as a lab filled with machines used for experiments on Pokémon. Alongside the large machines and devices, there are three rooms providing hospitality for members: the Team Galactic TV Room, Kitchen, and Nap Room. The TV Room contains a state-of-the-art audio and video system only available for member use. The Kitchen, encouraging health and prosperity, consists of a refrigerator, filled with unidentified murky drinks, and a sink, caked with unidentifiable substances. In Platinum, the Kitchen also contains a report on the stolen plates from the creation trio statues in Eterna City. The Nap Room holds two beds to heal the Trainer's party. The members of the Team Galactic HQ also get around by using portals that lead to different rooms across the building. Yellow portals are two-way portals that transfer people across the building, while green portals are one-way; returning people to the ground floor.
It is also the place where the player obtains a Master Ball, the only one available in the game without trading, migrating, or winning the Jubilife TV Pokémon Lottery Corner.
Galactic Warehouse
The Galactic Warehouse is located on the northwestern side of the Veilstone City. It is on a small hill, next to the Team Galactic HQ. The warehouse is completely inaccessible until the player receives the Cobble Badge and defeats the two Team Galactic Grunts guarding the warehouse. It has a secret underground connection to the HQ; however, a Storage Key must be used to access the passageway.
When entered, it contains one small room: the ground floor. Inside is a Team Galactic Grunt and HM02 (Fly). The Team Galactic Grunt is guarding over the station, and will always remain at his post. There is also a secret lock that only the Storage Key can open; however, once unlocked, the underground floors can be explored.
The underground floors are dark and moist, with only a few dim lights illuminating the area. There are several members of Team Galactic roaming around looking for intruders, as well as several items that are only obtained here. The pathway will lead in strange directions, and will eventually lead to the Team Galactic HQ.

Cyrus's computer
If the player reads Cyrus's computer, they will discover a report on the Legendary Pokémon of Sinnoh. The computer reads:
The Creation of Space
Some say the universe originated from a massive explosion. Similarly, Sinnoh is thought to have been formed by an explosion in ancient times. Needless to say, the explosion came from the power of a Pokémon. The Pokémon must have been the mythical creature considered a deity by the ancients. Our aim is not to capture the mythical Pokémon, but to obtain its power...
Mythical Pokémon
The mythical Pokémon...
According to myths, the Pokémon created Sinnoh with its power. However, capturing the Pokémon with a Poké Ball prevents it from using its full power... But with the Red Chain, the Pokémon can be shackled, and its power can be used without restraint...
Red Chain
The Red Chain...
The Pokémon of the three lakes and Mt. Coronet are somehow connected. Capturing the Pokémon of the lakes will free the Pokémon of Mt. Coronet. From the Pokémon of the lakes, crystals can be extracted to create a Red Chain. Using that Red Chain, the mythical Pokémon can be summoned and shackled to do as we command...
In the spin-off games
Artwork depicting the Team Galactic HQ is seen in Cyrus and Sabrina's mindscape.
In the anime
Main series
Team Galactic HQ in the anime
Unlike in the games, the Team Galactic HQ in the anime is located somewhere on Mount Coronet; although, in Enter Galactic!, it was revealed that Team Galactic did have a base in Veilstone City as well, but it was evacuated following their theft of the Veilstone meteorites.
In Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!, Cyrus was seen monitoring the activities of the team's Commanders from the headquarters. When Saturn told him that the gateway to the Spear Pillar had been discovered, Cyrus ordered him to seal off the vicinity so they could proceed with their plans later on. As part of the operation, Jupiter and Charon moved the Red Chain from the Fuego Ironworks to the HQ. At the end of the episode, Cyrus contacted Pokémon Hunter J and hired her to capture the lake guardians.
The lake guardians inside Team Galactic HQ
In The Needs of the Three!, after J successfully captured Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, the three Legendary Pokémon were placed on large glass cases inside the HQ. Cyrus used pieces of the Red Chain to gain control over them, but they managed to teleport Ash, Dawn, and Brock to the building.
Together, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars prepared to face off against the unwelcome guests, but Cyrus stopped them believing that there should be a reason for the lake guardians to bring them to the HQ. He explained to Ash, Dawn, and Brock that it was the goal of Team Galactic to create a new world and decided that they should be held captive until said plan was finished.
However, Ash and Dawn were intent on foiling Cyrus's plan, since they could not let Cyrus use the lake guardians's powers for his selfish purposes. They asked Pikachu and Piplup to destroy the glass cases the Legendary Pokémon were on while Brock's Croagunk went up against Saturn's Toxicroak. As a result, a battle broke out in the HQ, which continued in The Battle Finale of Legend!. During their battle, Ash, Dawn, and Brock were overwhelmed by Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars, and taken prisoners. After that, Cyrus and the four Commanders left the HQ and headed to the Spear Pillar in their helicopter, with Ash, Dawn, and Brock as hostages.
In The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1), the Team Galactic Commanders, having escaped from custody, were revealed to be conducting experiments with Arceus's Flame Plate, which they had managed to acquire. After Saturn had succeeded in catching a Heatran, he brought it to the headquarters, intending to use it and the Plate to open a space-time gate that Team Galactic could use to bring back Cyrus following his disappearance in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl. However, the cannon used to open the gateway ended up overloading and letting out a burst of energy on Heatran, destroying a big portion of the headquarters and overloading Heatran's Flash Fire Ability, which resulted in it going on a rampage and escaping.
Pokémon Generations
The Team Galactic HQ appeared in The New World. Inside, Saturn and several Team Galactic Grunts were seen watching Cyrus summoning Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar. When Giratina appeared, freeing Dialga and Palkia and proceeding to take Cyrus into the Distortion World, Saturn desperately tried contacting him, only to receive a faint message from Cyrus to not look for him. Being loyal to his Boss to the very end, Saturn accepted Cyrus's last order.
In the manga
Pocket Monsters DP
Team Galactic HQ appeared in Helping the Legendary Pokémon!!, where Azelf asked Red to save its friends from Team Galactic. Thanks to Red's Clefairy defeating Mars with his gag moves, Azelf's friends were freed, although Clefairy was left behind at the HQ to suffer Team Galactic's wrath.
Pokémon Adventures
Team Galactic's headquarters first appeared in Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone, when the organization decided to hold a wealthy family to ransom in order to raise funds for their project. At this point in the story, the HQ was the setting for conversations involving Mars and/or Saturn. After an initial failure to capture Paka and Uji, Platinum's bodyguards, the team used a herd of Psyduck to block the northern path of Route 210 in order to lure Paka and Uji to Veilstone City. Team Galactic Grunts then forced Paka and Uji to battle through the night, and they were lured within the headquarters' distance, where Saturn fired a beam from a mysterious device, striking Paka and Uji directly and causing them to disappear somewhere.
In Besting Buizel II, the three airships that were dispatched to the three lakes returned to the headquarters when Team Galactic's operation to capture the lake guardians succeeded. On the airship holding Mesprit captive was Diamond, who knocked out a Grunt and stole his uniform when he arrives at the headquarters. Some time later, Pearl found his way in through a warehouse. By this time, Cyrus already commanded the creation of the Red Chains, and was being challenged to a battle by Cynthia. Platinum later sneaked in while the Unown from Solaceon Ruins keep the Team Galactic Grunts busy. The Advanced level Grunt spotted Diamond through his disguise and kept him occupied with a battle, but by then, Pearl and Platinum recognized the sound from their Pokédexes, and despite the Grunt's attempt to blind them with steam from the fire extinguishers, the trio reunited in the room holding the lake guardians captive.
The trio eventually figured out a way to free the lake guardians, and in doing so, were forced to give up their Pokédexes to the Grunt's Pokémon and were stunned into unconsciousness by the blinding light emanated from the lake guardians. Cynthia, who failed to defeat Cyrus due to her using Draco Meteor despite not having mastered it yet, found the trio and took them to Mt. Coronet for the final showdown.

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!
In Team Galactic's Ultimate Warrior, Hareta arrived at the Team Galactic HQ in order to save the lake guardians. However, he was confronted and challenged by Mitsumi, whom Cyrus had blackmailed into returning to serve Team Galactic. While Hareta managed to defeat Mitsumi and free the lake guardians, Cyrus was still able to complete the Red Chain, and ordered the HQ to be destroyed in order to protect Team Galactic's secrets. Hareta and Mitsumi were saved from the collapsing building by Jun.
In Hareta's Excellent New Partner...Minun?!, Kaisei was revealed to be kept at the reconstructed Team Galactic HQ. In Charon Must Be Stopped!, Hareta, Mitsumi, Jun, and Koya stormed the HQ in order to save Kaisei, whom Charon was holding as a prisoner in order to find out how to get to the Distortion World. After Kaisei had told him how to do so, Charon left the HQ and headed to Turnback Cave with him.
In the TCG
The following is a list of cards mentioning or featuring Team Galactic HQ in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
Trivia
- There is a sign in the nap room telling readers to make sure the bed is unoccupied before one gets into it. While the beds are both empty in Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl, there is a Poké Doll in one of the beds in Platinum.
- Cyrus's computer mentions that it is believed that the universe was formed from a massive explosion. This refers to the Big Bang theory.
