Do you regret choosing the yellow team at the start of your game in Pokémon GO? Surely you are not the only one, and it seems that the bipartisanship is strong between the red and blue teams in this game. Even so, many players surely want to switch between Valor, Wisdom and Instinct to be able to conquer more gyms, coincide in battles with friends or for whatever reason. Well, Pokémon GO will give you the opportunity to do it But yes, in a fairly limited way.
Or at least that is clear from the investigations of some users who scrutinize the code of the latest updates of Pokémon GO. Apparently, soon Niantic could introduce a new object in the game. This is the Team Medallion, of which there is even an image circulating on social networks. And what stands out is its description, since it indicates that it allows the user who acquires it to change equipment. Of course, a Team Medallion or team medallion can only be acquired once every 365 days. That is, you could only buy one per year.

And yes, we are talking about buying because the object would arrive directly at the Pokémon GO store. It would cost a good sum of gold coins. Based on the leaked images, we would be talking about no less than 100.000 coins Or in words that everyone can understand: you would have to pay real money to get this item and effectively change equipment. So we see a double limitation to get the Team Medallion or Team Medallion, which implies that we can only acquire it by spending real money and thinking a lot if we want to do it, since there will be a time of one year to make changes again.
It is logical since details such as raids and the correct evolution of some functions depend on this balance. So limiting the change of teams will prevent any of them from being deserted or unbalanced. And that many players feel alone when it comes to participating in raids, or to defend gyms.
That yes, at the moment it is only a tool in development, hidden in the code of Pokémon GO, without it having been officially announcedWe will have to wait, then, even without a specific date, to find out when the Team Medallion or Team Medallion arrives in Pokémon GO.We'll be alert.
Update:
Pokémon GO has officially confirmed the presence of the Team Medallion in the game. Of course, apparently it will cost 1,000 coins, and not 100,000 coins as originally believed. According to the Twitter message, this function will arrive in the game on February 26.
We're happy to share the Team Switch feature with you. Later this month, starting at 1:00 p.m. m. PST on February 26, Trainers will be able to change teams once a year. ⚡ ❄️ ?https://t.co/nSK7Ajccpx pic.twitter.com/mrzLHQCkky
