Well, I could have hoped for a more impressive opening post...

Instinct is currently holding one of the two gyms that I know of in my area!
Though, I use the phrase "in my area" loosely. Everything is almost a whole kilometre away, if not farther. And so far "everything" consists of two Gyms and eight PokéStops.

Sure, it's not a completely prohibitive distance, but I also can't just pop on over to the Stop whenever I please for a few pokéballs.
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

Team Instinct for Life!
(Surprisingly there are large amount Team Instinct members in my city. A lot of the gyms were repping yellow today in my area.)

Edit: Also just wondering, how did you guys get those awesome Instinct Emblems next to your names?

Edit 2: Thanks a ton @Benermerut!

There's now a Team section in About Me on your profile page. Just change it to Instinct and bam!
The emblems don't show up on every skin, though.

Normally, and instinctively, I should have joined Team Valor! But I dunno why I picked Team Instinct instead...
Red is my favorite color, Moltres is one of my favorite legends, Fire is one of my favourite type, and I like the sound of the word "valor" most. But somehow I've chosen Yellow Team... XD
Maybe because I know only a few players choose this team and I prefer being part of a few than follow a troupe of mainstream players lol.
Anyway, do you guys know if it is possible to switch team? Only answer me if you have a confirmed No or a confirmed Yes. :v

Team Instinct represent! I'm glad I went with yellow. Mystic and Valor are everywhere, but my friends and I are enjoying playing the third fiddle.

My area is super dense and competitive (I can see six gyms and 30+ pokestops from my desk) and mostly things bounce back and forth between red and blue every couple hours, but sometimes a group of Instincts will show up and raise a level 6 yellow gym that will stand for a day or two.

Now I just need to get my pokemon remotely competitive so I can contribute... y'all got CP1200+ Laprases and stuff and I'm over here proud of my CP400 Pidgeot...

I guess I'll just ask here since it's like home base. :P

I read somewhere that pokestops refresh every 5 minutes...but I visited three pokestops earlier today and accessed all three of them....but then just now I was out again and I could only use one of them, the other two said "try again later".

Could that be because somebody else accessed the pokestop within the last 5 minutes? I'm not sure how it works. Do pokestops just not work sometimes?

On another note, there are two gyms located in my small town, and both of them are owned by Team Valor.

On a somewhat serious note, do we know what areas are controlled by what teams yet? I heard my home state is mostly yellow, but I'm stuck out of town until Saturday

Hey my fellow "Instinctuals"!
I just thought I would come in and update how freaking awesome our team is!
This morning I went into town, and Team Instinct and Team Valor were duking it out constantly with not a single Mystic in sight (My town has a huge rivalry between Valor and Instinct, ironically Mystic are the sideliners here.) ! By this afternoon the dust had settled, and... TEAM INSTINCT OWNS MY WHOLE TOWN.
The gyms have been rustling and bustling, but nobody seems to be able to pull down our yellow gyms around here. There are a couple of Instinct players I've seen consistently at most of the gyms and they're running around with some 800-1000 CP's.
It's a great day to be on the Yellow team around here!

> me trying to hold down a gym:


In any case, I chose Instinct because I liked their schtick about raising eggs, reacting with your gut, and improving your potential. Zapdos is certainly not my favorite legendary, but I've come to really like being on the team! Instinct players tend to be way more chill in my experience, which is the approach I like to take with the game.
