So for the last month or two the city I live in (not terribly large but I think we have a higher proportion of gyms/stops) has been majority Mystic and Valor. You'd see 1-2 Instinct gyms on any given day but they were pretty rare. That's out of like... 30 gyms within 15 min drive of me. Lately the entire downtown area has been Instinct. Always level 7+, filled to the brim with Poliwhirl, Snorlax, and Dragonite. These gyms are starting off at 1800+ and full. Typically a gym in the area would start around 1200 and build up in cp naturally... but now there's the Instinct gyms out of nowhere it feels. Sound fishy? Can't keep up with my 5 gyms a day average with this potion supply unless I devote a lot more time spinning and fighting  | ||

Idk what's going on with Valor, its like they're the new Instinct so maybe some of their players were banned. Its more all of a sudden there's a ton of Instinct players and they all have multiple Snorlax and Dragonites... | ||

Don't think it's that expensive for the restaurants to place some lures themselves, especially ones catered to a younger crowd. | ||

I was playing cs go on campus once. Randomely opened the app inbetween rounds and a gengar spawned. Some of the best luck I have had thus far | ||

now, i need 180 kms on my ghastly, and i am done with the pokedex. found a nest in cities relatively close by. i figure if i just walk to the cities instead of going by car, i will have the gengar by the time i get home. | ||

It's just easier to say I have enough to fully evolve a gasly So local facebook group seems to confirm my suspicions, allegedly someone from a large city nearby is spoofing and took all the gyms in two towns. Hopefully Niantic takes action on the reports. Looking forward to your completed pokedex announcement daphreak. | ||

New players are going to be screwed over harder as the power creep for gyms is only going to get higher. Shame there's nothing you can do with all your potions and revives until you can stand a chance vs a gym. | ||

None of us have high enough pokemon to even consider actually holding a gym either. | ||

A month ago I only needed to get a 1000cp pokemon to stand a chance against some of the gyms, now it's more around 1600. New players are going to be screwed over harder as the power creep for gyms is only going to get higher. Shame there's nothing you can do with all your potions and revives until you can stand a chance vs a gym. this is a problem. even my friend who is level 29 cant put anything in gyms because in order to do so you have to have cp3000+ dragonites (he lives near San Francisco).

I don't think Niantic paid alot of attention to the buzz around the game before launch then if those estimates from them are right. Everyone knew this app was gonna get to 100 million users in a day. I could understand if they maybe undershot it and planned for 75m as the benchmark for worst case but their expected launch target is just laughable. Just another reason why Niantic is the worst part about this game. | ||
