pokemon-go
I'm trying to just catch my first Pokemon and I can't for some reason. From what I've read I should be able to see the three basic Pokemon to choose from and catch one but I can't see them.
I can only see three pulsing circles and the app appears to be stuck on map view. I've tried clicking or walking over the circles but nothing happens.
Any suggestion on how to fix this?
As of version 0.31.0 you can now change your avatar's appearance by navigating to the new menu in your profile and tapping the "customize" option.
Teams
Once you hit level 5 and try to enter a Gym, you can choose from three teams: Team Valor (Red), Team Mystic (Blue) and Team Instinct (Yellow). Each team may be tied to a respective Kanto legendary bird Pokémon (e.g. Instinct is yellow, and has the icon of Zapdos).
(source: pokecommunity.com)Note that the official website states that you ‘cannot change Teams at this time’. Maybe this restriction will be removed later, but make sure you’ve talked to your friends which you should choose before you jump on a team!
Best Answer
You need to restart the game and try again. There is a huge load on the servers as they are adding new countries to the list where Pokemon GO is available.
If restarting the game doesn't work, reinstall it. If that doesn't work, have patience and try in a few days.
