Was on Valpr during the beta and planning to stay on it with the release of the actual game!

Valor seemed to be the most popular choice taking over the gyms in my city, but seems that people are heading to go on Mystic and Instinct this time round.

What team have you decided on joining?

Edit: Teams have been given names!

I haven't wandered far enough to see an actual gym on my map yet, but when I do, I plan on joining Team Valor. I mean. If Moltres is indeed their insignia then how can I go wrong?

Guess I also need to see what teams other people around me are joining though...

Finally joined Team Valor today as I hit level 5 and got to see the logos for the first time! Pretty neat!

Team Red, when I reach level 5 of course. Red was my second pokemon game, and I've liked his character more than blue in manga. So, that is the stupid reason I am gonna go with Red.

Where's the love for Team Yellow in this thread? Valor and Mystic are nice and all, but you gotta love that instinctual Zapdos.

Level four now and rising quickly, I'll be choosing Team Instinct when I hit the mark.~

I'm not level 5 yet, and that may be a good thing as I'm undecided. Can't choose between Mystic and Instinct, but I think I'm leaning more towards Instinct right now.

We'll see where I stand when I finally hit level 5.
My hypothetical Galar team:
Spoiler:
Rillaboom, Toxtricity, Grimmsnarl, Coalossal, Polteageist, Frosmoth

Type combos I desire:
Grass / Fire
A real Grass / Electric
A proper Grass / Rock

yes i like grass type what of it

Mystic for me! I adore Articuno, but I haven't had a chance to get on a team. This is the one I'll probably end up going with though.

A couple friends and I all decided to go for Blue together. :) And apparently so did about 90% of Vancouver because almost every Gym I've passed so far is Blue, haha.

When you get to the screen where you pick your team and the leaders introduce themselves, they each said a bit about how they were focusing on different aspects of Pokemon growth (I believe Mystic > evolution, Instinct > hatching eggs and Valor > strength) - does the choice have an impact on these aspects of gameplay?

As with Juno, I am one of the friends she mentioned, so I am also part of Mystic here (party) which is extremely nice around here because so many people leading gyms are part of Valor. But the area around where I live is all blue now :P

Apparently it does not. Not that I've noticed, and not that anyone else has noticed enough to put it on the internet /shrug

Hopefully it's something they'll add in the future, seems odd to have them reference the three main aspects of gameplay otherwise.

I would like to see it have an effect, as in making evolutions easier to achieve for Blue team. Goddamn 50 candies to evolve a Magnemite I've seen one of. Ever.

I think there is a lot to come in the game. It's literally only been out a couple of days, and despite the hype Niantic doesn't seem like it was prepared for the amount of people who would be downloading the game. I would say, don't expect anything until the game has been available worldwide officially for a while. Then they might start working on stuff. Right now they have server issues and further releases to get down, and they also have a TON of bugs to fix.
