When you hit Level 5 in Pokemon GO, you are faced with a choice that will decide your fate. No, the choice doesn't really impact anything in the game, but it might impact how other Pokemon GO players will view you. Basically, at Level 5 you have to choose which team you will belong to, Valor, Mystic or Instinct.
Each team is tied to a Legendary Pokemon: Valor has Moltres, Mystic has Articuno and Instinct has Zapdos. Almost everyone playing Pokemon GO picked to be on Valor or Mystic, thus creating a huge war between the two factions – the only thing the two agree on is that Instinct sucks.
Well, the official team leaders have been revealed (they were silhouettes before) and the hate for Instinct is still going strong.
Netizens have begun calling 'Spark' out on his appearance alone then it grew into calling him out for anything. The Verge went ahead and grabbed some of the best tweets showing off the community's reaction to Spark:
Candela: I will show you Pokemon's true heart through strength!
Blanche: Knowledge is the key to victory

I can tell Spark tries so hard, to be hip and happenin, to be the very best but at the bottom of the stairs misses the last step and eats it
