I am seriously beginning to regret team yellow. We can't hold a gym here for more than a few hours. Is it the same everywhere?

EnidButton · 01/12/2016 18:48

I'be only ever seen one gym held by yellow around here. They were quite low so considered taking it but I left it as I felt so pleased for them. Xmas Blush

Enid you are my new favourite Pokémon-er Wink

I think I'm going to defend the new "nearest" system. I know it's annoying and a bit dispiriting that you don't see the Pokemon who spawn away from Pokestops on your screen, but surely that was almost never actually useful? since the chances of tracking them down without further clues were tiny. So we've lost a useless feature and gained a feature which is sometimes really really useful (albeit not so much for rural Pokemoners). I've caught one Pokémon on my list today already and if I'd had more spare time I could have snagged another one off my Pokedex.

Hello pokegoers!
Haven't posted before but do lurk for tips! Currently level 25 so not doing too badly! Team mystic for us (share account with DS(7)

My two local gyms were solid level 10 yellow for weeks but since the rebalance they've lost them. A quick check on the 5 I can see from my kitchen gives me 4 blue and 1 red at the mo.

MuddlingMackem · 01/12/2016 19:15

NamelessEnsign, a lot of gyms near us go through all three teams in the space of each 24 hours. Grin

I regret choosing blue, red and yellow rule my town now.

TallulahBetty · 01/12/2016 20:21

Neeeew threaaaaad

CantstandmLMs · 01/12/2016 20:33

My local gyms change hands between blue, red and yellow equally I think. All I know is (I'm blue) I can hold 3 just enough to claim coins but they are taken less than half an hour later by red or yellow but return to blue again later that evening...and repeat!!

Annoying but hey ho I try and claim a few coins a day weekdays and it suits me ok.

JellyWitch · 01/12/2016 20:39

The yellow team is strong in these parts. They have both gyms in a neighbouring village and a few outliers too. They are organised - I can take down one of their L8 gyms and it's back up within 24 hours. I have met three of them too and don't suspect spoofing. That's said, blue is strongest here and the reds don't get a look in!

I caught a Rhyhorn on the way to pick up ds from nursery today. On 45 candies now, so close to evolving it. Considering swapping walking buddy to get it (currently have graveller (

RueDeWakening · 01/12/2016 21:08

I'm not playing much at the mo, in the middle of an MS relapse so not able to walk much. Still no ditto, either.

NamelessEnsign · 01/12/2016 21:27

jelly that's interesting - I have never seen a yellow stronghold. It's mostly blue here like the politics.

Sorry to hear about the MS rue. That must be sucky for all sorts of reasons.

The title made me smile DoctorTwo.

I just managed to link to this one in the last possible slot in the old one!

WildNightsWithAndyDay · 01/12/2016 21:36

Me and a couple of other school mums are blue. All the kids that play at the school seem to be red. They always get it to red before school, then after drop off we get it back. I don't think they've figured out it's a bunch of the infant school mums yet.

BolivarAtasco · 01/12/2016 21:38

I keep taking over the gym at my local station.
