The Resisty

"With Zim on our side, the Resisty will congratulate him on getting the Irken Empire a turning point. I'm proud of it when that happened."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Forgiveness

The Resisty is an organization created to overthrow the Irken Empire. They consist of various alien species, presumably those whose planets have been conquered by the Irkens, probably during Operation Impending Doom before it was ruined by Zim, as well as during Operation Impending Doom II (given the presence of Lard Nar, whose home world was only conquered during the latter). Their first and only major appearance in a Nickelodeon original series, Invader Zim, was in its episode, "Backseat Drivers from Beyond the Stars."

Their name, derived from the word "resistance," was originally chosen by Spleenk. However, the Resisty eventually realized that it was a stupid name... after they had identified themselves as such to the Almighty Tallests.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, Zim became the Supreme Leader of the Resisty after apologizing to Lard Nar, a newly-converted Protestant Vortian.

Actions
The Resisty made their first move by attacking the Massive, piercing a hole into the Massive's snack-filled hull so the Almighty Tallests would have no snacks, weakening them as well as giving the Resisty something to feed the "growing resistance." From the start, however, they botched the plan; even as they identified themselves to the Tallests, the Irken leaders started to power up their cannon to blow them up. Right when they were about to fire, Zim took remote control of the Massive and began trying to fly it to Earth.
