'''Teams''' <small>(Japanese: チーム, Mandarin: 队)</small> are what are used to separate members of [[AKB48]], [[SKE48]], [[NMB48]], [[HKT48]], [[NGT48]], [[STU48]], [[JKT48]], [[BNK48]], [[TPE48]], [[MNL48]], [[SNH48]], [[BEJ48]], [[GNZ48]], [[SHY48]] and [[CKG48]] up. By using 'Teams', members can be categorized more easily. Also, instead of the entire group performing a theater show, only one team is assigned to perform. This allows fans to focus on a certain group of members and give the girls days off. [[Kenkyuusei]] are sometimes referred to as Team Kenkyuusei, but is not official.

'''Team''' (Japanese: チーム chīmu, Chinese: 队 duì, Indonesian: Tim , Thai: ทีม thīm) are used to separate members of ALL48 Groups. By using 'Teams', members can be categorized more easily. Also, instead of the entire group performing a [[Stage|theater show]], only one team is assigned to perform. This allows fans to focus on a certain group of members and allow the other members to have days off.
  
Teams are named after the letters used in their group's name, except for [[AKB48]] [[Team 4]], [[Team 8]] and [[SNH48]] [[Team X]]. In the case when a Team's name has already been taken up, roman numerals are used to signify which number of letter that team is. For example, both AKB48 and SKE48 have the letter "K" in their names, so instead of forming a Team K in both AKB and SKE, the AKB team is called Team K and the SKE team is called Team KII.

Teams are named after the letters used in their group's name, except for [[AKB48]] [[Team 4]], [[Team 8]], and [[SNH48]] [[Team X]]. In the case when a Team's name has already been used, roman numerals are added to signify which number of letter that team is. For example, both AKB48 and SKE48 have the letter "K" in their names, so instead of forming a Team K in both AKB48 and SKE48, the AKB48 team is called Team K and the SKE48 team is called Team KII (pronounced "K-two"). In some cases there are also teams with double letters, for the example [[AKB48 Team SH|Team SH]] and [[Team TP]].
  
The Teams of [[SNH48]]'s sister groups didn't follow this order, because they aren't AKB48 sister groups. For example, [[BEJ48]] [[BEJ48 Team B|Team B]] and [[AKB48]] [[Team B]], but they follow the order of [[SNH48]] actual teams. For example, [[SNH48]] [[Team NII]] and [[GNZ48]] [[GNZ48 Team NIII|Team NIII]] (Don't confuse with [[NGT48]] [[Team NIII]])
+
The Teams of [[SNH48]]'s sister groups no longer adhere to this order, following their removal as an official AKB48 sister group in 2016. Instead they now follow the order of [[SNH48]]'s teams. For example, [[SNH48]] created [[Team NII]] in November 2013, when they were still affiliated with AKB48. Later, [[GNZ48]] created [[GNZ48 Team NIII|Team NIII]], the following number after Team NII,  even though [[NGT48]] had already created a Japan-based [[Team NIII]]. In similar fashion, the AKB48 group's no longer include the SNH48 groups' numbering when naming teams. Despite this, both franchises are careful not to repeat the colors of their groups and teams.
  
Each Team has their own captain, who may or may not be the [[Center]] of the Team. Traditionally, teams had 16 members, but since the [[Tokyo Dome Team Shuffle]], there is no limit to the amount of members that can be on a team.  
+
Since 2012, the Japanese AKB48 Group names its teams using the last name of the team captain. For example, '''Takahashi Team A''' (高橋チームA) denotes the iteration of Team A when [[Takahashi Minami]] was captain. In her case she has had two periods of captaincy, first from July 27, 2010 to October 29, 2012, and second from April 25, 2014 to August 23, 2015. Both of these teams were called Takahashi Team A.
  
Also each team has their representative color. Usually, the first team represents its sister's group color for an example like [[JKT48]] [[Team J]], that team use "Red" color (as same as the color of JKT48 logo). But for few case, some first teams use another color for an example like [[HKT48]] [[Team H]], that team use "Green" color (which is not same as [[HKT48]] logo color which use "Black" as its color).
+
Each Team has its own captain, who may or may not be the [[Center]] of the Team. Traditionally, teams had 16 members, but ever since the [[Tokyo Dome Team Shuffle]], there is no limit to the number of members that can be on a team. Also, each team has its own representative color. In most cases, the first team of a group uses its group color as the team color, for an example[[JKT48]] [[Team J]] uses red to match the JKT48 logo.
  
The only groups that do not use teams are [[SDN48]], [[Nogizaka46]] and [[Keyakizaka46]], where members were separated by using generations instead. Even without Teams, these three groups have their own captains, with [[Noro Kayo]] being the SDN48 captain, [[Sakurai Reika]] the Nogizaka46 captain, and [[Sugai Yuuka]] being the Keyakizaka46 captain. SDN48 was disbanded in 2012, however.  
+
A team does its own activities, such as has recording Single/Album/Setlist studio recordings for their team, holding events or concerts for their team, performing theater shows as a team, etc. Some special "teams" have been created for theater shows in particular, such as Himawarigumi (AKB48, HKT48, and JKT48), Cattleyagumi (NMB48) and Class 4 and Class 8 (GNZ48). These teams select members from the group's existing teams to perform a joint theater show.  
  
A team has its own activity, such as has recording for Single/Album/Setlist Studio Recording for its team, doing a event/concer for its team, doing a setlist by a team, and etc. But, usually they still can interact with another member in another team ([[Senbatsu]], concert, Himawarigumi, and etc).
+
There have also been temporary "teams" created within the ALL48 groups, such as [[Team PB]] or [[Team YJ]]. These teams are only temporary and used for marketing purposes, and the members within them remain part of their original teams. Other temporary teams, such as Team Undecided and [[Team Unknown]], are used when a member is transferred or promoted but there is either no team spot available, or they haven't been assigned to a team yet. [[Glossary#Members|Kenkyuusei or Trainees]] (understudies for promoted members) are sometimes referred to as Team Kenkyuusei, but this is not official.  
  
Sometimes, there are special groups made within the AKB48 Group, such as single coupling song groups. An example of this is [[Team PB]] or [[Team YJ]]. These teams were only temporary and for marketing purposes, the members within them stayed part of their original teams as well. Other temporary teams, such as Team Undecided and [[Team Unknown]], are used when a member is transferred or promoted, but there either is no team spot available, or they haven't been assigned to a team yet.
+
Every so often, a [[Team Shuffle]] occurs. In this event, members are transferred to other teams or groups.
  
Currently, a special Team, [[Team Kaigai]] is being used for AKB48 members who have been transferred to sister groups abroad.

==Kenkyuusei or Trainee==

'''Kenkyuusei''' (研究生) it's also known as '''Trainee'''. When girls enter the group, they work as a kenkyuusei until they are promoted as official member or promoted to a team. Kenkyuusei receive many of the same perks as promoted members do, but their appearances are usually limited. They usually only perform during the kenkyuusei-only theater shows and as understudies for promoted members when need be.

Team (Japanese: チーム chīmu, Chinese: 队 duì, Indonesian: Tim , Thai: ทีม thīm) are used to separate members of ALL48 Groups. By using 'Teams', members can be categorized more easily. Also, instead of the entire group performing a theater show, only one team is assigned to perform. This allows fans to focus on a certain group of members and allow the other members to have days off.

Teams are named after the letters used in their group's name, except for AKB48 Team 4, Team 8, and SNH48 Team X. In the case when a Team's name has already been used, roman numerals are added to signify which number of letter that team is. For example, both AKB48 and SKE48 have the letter "K" in their names, so instead of forming a Team K in both AKB48 and SKE48, the AKB48 team is called Team K and the SKE48 team is called Team KII (pronounced "K-two"). In some cases there are also teams with double letters, for the example Team SH and Team TP.

The Teams of SNH48's sister groups no longer adhere to this order, following their removal as an official AKB48 sister group in 2016. Instead they now follow the order of SNH48's teams. For example, SNH48 created Team NII in November 2013, when they were still affiliated with AKB48. Later, GNZ48 created Team NIII, the following number after Team NII, even though NGT48 had already created a Japan-based Team NIII. In similar fashion, the AKB48 group's no longer include the SNH48 groups' numbering when naming teams. Despite this, both franchises are careful not to repeat the colors of their groups and teams.

Since 2012, the Japanese AKB48 Group names its teams using the last name of the team captain. For example, Takahashi Team A (高橋チームA) denotes the iteration of Team A when Takahashi Minami was captain. In her case she has had two periods of captaincy, first from July 27, 2010 to October 29, 2012, and second from April 25, 2014 to August 23, 2015. Both of these teams were called Takahashi Team A.

Each Team has its own captain, who may or may not be the Center of the Team. Traditionally, teams had 16 members, but ever since the Tokyo Dome Team Shuffle, there is no limit to the number of members that can be on a team. Also, each team has its own representative color. In most cases, the first team of a group uses its group color as the team color, for an example, JKT48 Team J uses red to match the JKT48 logo.

A team does its own activities, such as has recording Single/Album/Setlist studio recordings for their team, holding events or concerts for their team, performing theater shows as a team, etc. Some special "teams" have been created for theater shows in particular, such as Himawarigumi (AKB48, HKT48, and JKT48), Cattleyagumi (NMB48) and Class 4 and Class 8 (GNZ48). These teams select members from the group's existing teams to perform a joint theater show.

There have also been temporary "teams" created within the ALL48 groups, such as Team PB or Team YJ. These teams are only temporary and used for marketing purposes, and the members within them remain part of their original teams. Other temporary teams, such as Team Undecided and Team Unknown, are used when a member is transferred or promoted but there is either no team spot available, or they haven't been assigned to a team yet. Kenkyuusei or Trainees (understudies for promoted members) are sometimes referred to as Team Kenkyuusei, but this is not official.

Every so often, a Team Shuffle occurs. In this event, members are transferred to other teams or groups.

A list of the current captains of the teams can be found here.

Kenkyuusei or Trainee

Kenkyuusei (研究生) it's also known as Trainee. When girls enter the group, they work as a kenkyuusei until they are promoted as official member or promoted to a team. Kenkyuusei receive many of the same perks as promoted members do, but their appearances are usually limited. They usually only perform during the kenkyuusei-only theater shows and as understudies for promoted members when need be.
