How do I pick a team?

I made it to level 5 in Pokemon GO, but the game didn't ask me which team I wanted to join and I am currently not affiliated with any team.

Is there something I have to do in order to pick a team, or should I have been given a chance to pick a team upon leveling up?


Solution 1:

To join a team, you must visit a gym by tapping on it. (You don't need to be near it, just close enough to see it on the map.) Once there, it will go through a short scene and then let you pick which team you wish to join.
