On the other hand, Team Instinct (in the shape of me and two others) took a gym in suburbia (not saying where ) at going-home-time last night which is still ours this morning! I wonder how long it'll last - I've this theory that we need to take gyms in groups. Just make them a pain for the other teams to gank with 5 or 6 reasonably high level pokemon and and they'll last a wee bit longer. (Disclaimer - maybe not in Dublin City Center. It's crazy here.)

I'm finding it hard to believe that someone is level 31 and has several 2500+ CP Dragonites available, like some of the people I've seen frequently around the city center (not naming names.) I'm assuming that as time goes on Pokeniantendo will get better at banning cheaters and as the game becomes less of a "fad" it'll become less attractive to dumbasses running bots.

Once the image goes, turn around and walk the other way until it pops back up. Then go either left or right from the point it reappears. If it disappears do a 180 and walk on and it will turn up. Beleedat. Well that method works for me!!!!
