Not only is it the most degenerate form of shiny hunting since the rates are disgustingly high for anyone not limited by the real world, but they also tend to be the ones constantly holding a lock on gyms close to their house so that they can get their full 8 hours of coins while spending as few potions as possible and completely destroying any showcases in the area. It's gotten to the point where I just don't play the game downtown anymore because there's always tons of people fighting for gyms and showcases, yet no one is ever interested in doing raids with besides the 1-5 people that show up during elite raid days.
It's not like they even use the resources they get from gyms and showcases to help out the people they live around either. They just spoof to one of the many big cities and do all the raids they farmed gym coins for out there. The last time I remember spoofers doing raids in my local neighborhood was Shadow Mewtwo weekend back in 2023.
