- Either there's an Instinctfag who is feeding my solo gyms for no good reason without putting in his own mons or the guy(s) who gave the 3 hour ballpark for pure time decay is(are) off by a couple hours. I am at 3+ hours on my first gym defender and he is still at half a heart. Either Niantic changed it on the fly or the 3 hour guy just got kicked out by an enemy trainer.
- Battles won seem to be shared amongst all attacking party members like an Exp. All. If you beat one Pokemon, everybody in the party gets +1 to Battles won.
- This also must be the same system that Niantic used to track shit internally even if the Battles Won counter was broken in the old gym system. Also seems to have counted for defenders because the defenders I never used to attack with have a few hundred battles won and shit. I know for a fact that I didn't take down 1400 vapes with this Jolteon.
- Spinning a gym while it's your team's gives you a +1 item team bonus. Bronze badges give +1 and they turn bronze basically after your first battle so just spinning a bronze allied gym is automatically better than most Pokestops. I heart silver and gold badges give more items so I can't wait.
- I don't know if it's my phone reception or a general problem but I kept having this fucking issue where suddenly the (GO TO BATTLE) button is disabled while I'm loading up my team and never comes back until I quit out and go back in. It's like there's a bug where after a timeout it automatically thinks it's too far away from the gym and prevents me from fighting so I have to load my team real fast. Wasted so much time on that.
- On the note of timeouts, an in-game network timeout for d/cing while trying to initiate a gym fight is several minutes. Literally faster to kill the app and restart it and then load your team again instead of waiting for the game to report NETWORK ERROR.
