Rumor has it there's been video circulating around online

that there's this new super-rare Pokemon out

But you know me, impossible is not a word that I understand,

The Rock? Wha— Some sort of weird promotional thing

I could do this all day, you little Weedle-catching bit—

Maybe you should lay off the candy, "FatPat",

you're starting to look like a Jigglypuff!

Welcome to Game Theory, where that opening was part of a collaboration I did with Dwayne

The video is “Why I gave The Rock Pokemon Go.”

Just kidding again -- man you guys take this too seriously.

I didn't give The Rock any sort of video games, okay?

But I will say this was a super-cool opportunity,

since it’s not every day you get to tell the world’s highest earning actor to suck

on your Great Balls, so even though I didn’t catch him, I’d call it a win.

If you want to check out the whole video I did with him, click right here.

But the fact that I got to do a collaboration with a former wrestler turned Scorpion King

about a POKEMON game just goes to show how big Pokemon GO actually is.

And as if you needed more proof, just a few days after the game’s release, it basically doubled

the value of Nintendo -- the WHOLE company.

In a week, it became the biggest mobile game EVER -- CRUSHING Candy Crush.

And everyone is checking it out -- both genders, practically every age group.

I mean, when my cellphone wielding grandma is asking me to breed with her Female Nidoran,

I think two things: First, this game is HUGE and second, seriously?

You can’t find a Male Nidoran, grandma?

They’re literally like every five steps.

Oh, and let’s add to the list, 3) I never want to think about breeding and my grandparents

But despite a HUGE number of people playing this game coming in from all walks of life,

one trend has already started to emerge: the domination of Team Mystic.

And that’s not me showing favoritism; It’s a proven fact.

For those of you who don’t know, or live in Brazil (where the game isn't released yet) and have to rely on the Olympics

to entertain you instead, once a player reaches level 5, they must first pick a team: Mystic,

This in turn dictates your team color, your team leader, and which team you battle for

But most importantly, once you’ve picked your allegiance, it’s impossible to switch

teams, so it’s a PERMANENT move in the game.

And yet, despite presenting three evenly-matched teams to the player,

43% of total players of Pokemon GO are currently Team Mystic.

That’s nearly HALF, despite there being three options.

It’s a MASSIVE difference as Valor only has 32% of players and Instinct is far behind

How could one team dominate the choice so heavily?

Well, what’s really happening here is a collision of personality, competition, and

And when you boil it down, there are actually three key reasons

why Team Mystic is the Pokemon GO team of choice,

and no, it’s not just a #TeamMystic Thing.

So let’s pick apart the minds of Poketrainers across the globe to get to the root of Mystic’s

Every day, the stuff we see around us influences the way we think, usually way more than we

Ads, marketing, even regular news articles you read take advantage of the way your brain

works and I’m here to tell you that Pokemon Go teams are no exception!

We’re going to get into plenty of psychology about the teams themselves, but before we

even get into that, I’m going to tell you that even the way the game’s marketing presents

the teams, as well as the game's interface,

makes you predisposed to choosing team Mystic.

Which team do you notice first when you look at these images?

If you’re like the vast majority of the population, you notice the one in the middle.

This is called the center stage effect and it’s one of the most common marketing tools

In a display case, you’re more likely to look at and consider the object in the middle,

It’s also known as the “Goldilocks effect”

You know, after "Goldilocks and the Three Bears",

[High Voice] "This porridge is too hot, this porridge is too cold",

[Normal Voice] Anyway, The Goldilocks Effect says that most people choose the middle option.

If everything seems relatively equal across all of them (like people don’t get a special

prize for choosing one) they’ll choose the one that’s visually in the middle.

That’s why if you have the choice to go inside the same building through one of three

doors, you’ll most likely choose the middle one.
