 Meet Your Pokémon Go Team Leaders

And now, here are the true faces behind Team Valor, Team Mystic, and Team Instinct.

What do you think? Still stand behind your choice? I for one am very happy with the design of Candela, though Spark might have tempted me a bit more had I known what he looked like.

The designs were revealed at the end of Niantic’s Pokémon Go panel at San Diego Comic-Con, where thousands of people gathered in the slim hope that maybe, just maybe, a legendaryPokémon might get released to celebrate the occasion. Alas, the whispers of a legendary were but a rumor.

Some other stuff touched on during the panel:

There are easter eggs that nobody has found yet (!)

They’re planning ways to customize Pokestops

Pokemon Centers are coming

There will be more functionality added to gyms, though the specifics aren’t clear

Niantic says the game is at about 10% of what they want it to be

They’re still discussing breeding, but nothing concrete in the works yet

The legendary birds are tied to teams in some way, as the original designs implied

Yep, they know about the three-step glitch. Still no word. Grr.

It sounds like we can’t expect legendaries until after the game has been released on all regions, which makes sense
