Pokemon Go might be dominated by Team Mystic, but how do the teams break down for you loyal theorists? What do your teams say about you? I’m digging deep to uncover some of the underlying psychological trends among players in Pokemon Go.

  1. I like the color yellow and when I first heard the names I knew that I was going to choose instinct because in real life I would totally train based on what my gut was telling me but I still read through each and every single one just in case

  2. Lmao I picked instinct because I like electric types more. Not why I chose it but I like yellow, one of my fav colors. And I am a Gryffindor 🥲 lol. Also an ENFP to add to that. I was surprised to hear all of this info?? Zapdos is statistically the best legendary bird, he’s not the underdog!!

  3. I like Team Instinct I guess because of these videos of it being the underdog, but I also like Team Instinct because I like the color yellow, and the symbol is Zaphos a thunder type pokémon, and if I had a power I would what to have it based on lightning. The P part makes sense, as I switch between J and P. Nice videos!

  4. I chose Instinct for two reasons; I knew yellow would be the least favored so I chose the underdog. Zapdos is also my favorite Legendary bird. I'm also a Hufflepuff so it all kinda works. XD

  5. I watch the show Pokémon and I always watch and I always see team rocket flying off from some from Pikachu thunderbolt. It’s funny how you say it mad Pat

  6. In Pokémon go in there should be able to join team rocket if they ask you to Pokémon let’s go Pikachu they should have an option if you want to join us in rocket league, don’t want to join team rocket

  7. Literally all of my trades are each one from each team like I have a treat from the red team I have a treat from the blue team and I have a treat from the yellow team so it doesn’t make any sense and they wouldn’t know anything about me based on it other than the fact that I like cool colors

  8. I regret not picking Instinct. Unlike in Hogwarts, the yellow team seems to be the coolest. The underdogs, all about curiousity, adventure and exploration. I only picked Mystic cause…well…wisdom…and I'm a proud Ravenclaw. The only think I don't like about Instinct is the yellow coloUr.

  9. When I first started Pokemon go none of these reasons are the reason I chose my team I only chose my team because Zapdos was my favorite legendary over Articuno and Moltrez lol

  10. XD This is awesome. 1) I adore psycology 2) I chose team Valor simply because I prefer the design of their leader 3) I'm an INFP, and I chose the one that's farthest from my personality

  11. What my team says about me: My son is a sexist who stole my phone and chose Instinct for me because he was the only boy.

  12. Wanted to go with instinct but my sisters were practically yelling at me to go with mystic. Then I started trying to do what I needed to to be able to change teams and then I deleted the game off of my phone because it took too much space.

  13. I know it's been 7 years but I've been playing a Rom Hack called Pokemon Firered: Rocket Edition. It's the same story as Pokemon Fire Red BUT you're playing as a rookie member in team rocket. It's definitely one of the best modded pokemon games with a great storyline to explain some other parts of Fire Red. I recommend getting an emulator and playing it.

  14. The insights here are outstanding; akin to a book that offered deep understanding on these topics. "Game Theory and the Pursuit of Algorithmic Fairness" by Jack Frostwell
