Ever wondered if you can switch teams in Pokemon GO? Well, you’re not alone! Many trainers ask about changing teams to join friends or simply for a fresh start.

Let’s dive into whether you can change teams in Pokemon GO and what you need to know about the process.

Can You Change Teams in Pokemon GO?

Yes, you can change teams in Pokemon GO! But, there’s a little more to it than just pushing a button.

To change teams, you’ll need a special item called a “Team Medallion.” This item is available in the in-game shop and allows you to switch from Team Mystic, Valor, or Instinct to any other team of your choice. Remember, you can only change teams once every 365 days, so make sure you’re happy with your choice before making the switch.

Getting a Team Medallion: The Key to Changing Teams

To get a Team Medallion, you’ll have to shell out 1,000 PokeCoins. You can earn PokeCoins by defending gyms or through in-app purchases. Once you have enough PokeCoins, you can buy the Team Medallion from the shop and use it to change your team.

Using the Team Medallion is simple. Just go to the in-game shop, purchase the Team Medallion, and then select the team you wish to join. Keep in mind the once-a-year limit to ensure your choice counts!
