Pokémon Go is now a fully fledged phenomenon, and whether you’re on team red, blue or yellow can make or break any friendship. Developer Niantic discussed the game at Comic-Con 2016 and showed the leaders for the game’s three competing teams.

During the panel, an image of the three new characters was shown. Team Mystic (best team) has Blanche, Team Valor (rubbish team) is led by Candela, and Team Instinct (who would choose this team??) is headed-up by Spark.

This is the first time that we’ve seen the characters, who until now have been represented merely by silhouettes in the game.

HERE THEY ARE IN ALL THEIR GLORY:

Comparing the ensembles, it’s pretty clear that Blanche is the best, but Candela is kinda cool too. The general consensus on the interwebs is that Spark looks like a poorly dressed dude-bro.

Twitter users are cutting sick at Spark and his sad existence.

Spark really needs to get his life together.

Harsh but fair.

Just do YOU, Sparky.
