We'd better hope it's nanab berries we need, and that they're not introducing a new berry specifically for feeding gym pokemon....because no doubt the drop rate will be low!

If they do introduce methods for team play, I hope that we'll still have the option to play alone. I play alone or with my kids and have no interest in having to team up with strangers for any aspect of the game. Maybe I'm a weirdo

Certainly you are not weird.
I play PoGo alone , my level of focus on the game is generally unmatched by others so it would just irritate me to do otherwise. (i'm mildly autistic and as a result if I am interested in something - PoGo in this instance - I'm in it to the nth degree).

I'd have no interest really in co-op play. Unless it was with similar fanatical Valor players anyway. lol.

I was with you until you mentioned the 'V' word :mad:

I think co-op play would be interesting but hopefully not necessary to really progress on an individual basis, i.e. I'd like it to be complimentary to the main game but not compulsory.

Come over to the dark (red??) side! lol

Rsaiere is in way to deep levelwise to turn around now. Halfway to Lvl40 are you?

Im Valor playing in D15 and can get "fanatical" at times. Not sure where you roam ELM327?
I can only play at certains times though due to family/work.

ELM327 · 09-06-2017 02:15PM

Generally I used to have a couple of gyms in blanch but most were too high turnover.
There's a level 10 valor gym in blanch which I'm in since christmas, a little off the beaten path.
Other than that I'd be moreso in louth or meath with work so it's easier to find rural gyms there anyway.

Irishbrick · 09-06-2017 02:26PM

So what teams are everyone here..... I'm instinct.... What about others... Any other instinct players in Dublin...?

I'm continuously intrigued how much you remember about my progress Shiranui. Should I be worried...??

Evolved Hitmontop on a 50/50 chance just now , so for first time since walking buddy was introduced/knew what it was for , I dont have any requirement for candies towards an evolution as Im sure I will get plenty of cyndaquil candy with the event next week.
Still waiting on a Mareep , walking him would keep me quite for while! , another 4 10k eggs gone without luck this week.

Well your nickname is giving you away and your gyms tell your story.

Diemos · 09-06-2017 03:40PM

this fooking game! 5km gives me a staryu (useless) and then a 2km gives me a Machop (which I'm delighted with) .

But I'm not in any gyms...!?! SECURITY!!

Shiranui · 09-06-2017 04:47PM

You and I had "difference in opinion" as to who should have certain gyms some time ago.

I gauged your current level from that interaction.
Not sure where your mons reside nowadays.

Ah, the plot thickens. I believe I know the gyms in question. Well, I've left them alone the last while so you're welcome! :pac:

delly · 09-06-2017 06:18PM

It makes no odds folks, there'll be a point in over a week from now that I reckon I'll know were all you mons will be.

DaveSuarez · 09-06-2017 07:14PM

I woke up beside a snorlax yesterday morning, crap cp though. I caught 3 sunkerns in 3 completely different spots yesterday too, first time I'd ever seen them and haven't seen any since.

So long as there's no mystic spoofers around in D15, I'll be delighted with some "friendly competition":p

I'm in Dublin 15 and I've never spoofed so you will be in for some "friendly" competiton with me!!

When they close gyms we should settle all this over Street Fighter 2 Turbo.

madalig12 · 10-06-2017 10:38AM

Do you have to beat every pokemon in a gym of your own colour to get to put one of your own in. Was a level 9, i defeated 7 before getting wiped. It wouldnt let me add to it even tho my pokemon were much higher ranked than others already in there

You need to look at the prestige of the gym. If it was a level nine it was 40,000+. So you need to keep battling until the prestige reaches 50,000 before you will be able to add a Pokémon.

This is my favorite post in this thread brilliant!

delly · 10-06-2017 12:15PM

Oh?

delly · 10-06-2017 12:16PM

Oh hello Chansey!

La_Gordy · 10-06-2017 01:28PM

Can't wait for this event. I have so many evolves to go for mons I don't have on the dex. It has been hard to hold off but knowing there'll be eggs on the cheap I MUST.

Angron · 10-06-2017 01:57PM

Planning on heading up to Dublin at some stage during the event to restock on items. Got my 7 day streak yesterday, another metal coat, and I'm now 30km away from my first Muk (assuming I don't catch/hatch any Grimer in the mean time).

Edit: Just hatched a Sudowoodo and I'm not happy about it. Utterly useless.

you don't have to beat them all.
normally I would give you a full breakdown on how they work but all of that will change in the next few days.

if you want quick info on it look at the trainer tips channel on YouTube. Just search gyms.
