It's immensily fun and I've been going out for walks/bike rides just because of this, which I normally don't.
But they really need to work out on the Gym bugs. The servers are stable for catching/pokestops at the moment, but the gym bugs keep on persisting.
- 1HP bug, so either you let your pokemons die, or kill the app which then causes the next one
- Gym battle countdown and then you're thrown right back out of it.
There are 2 rather easy gyms in the neighbourhood to take over, but just because of both issues, I can't take them over.

Oh man, this is fantastic.
OMG Shiny Pokemon. That'd be sweeeet!
I think they should get the game to everyone first, then updates.

There's already shiny Pokemon and like their game versions, they are hard to come by.

Eevees are literally everywhere where I am. I'm about to evolve another one. Hoping for anything but Flareon.

My girlfriend just found out the hard way that you can run out of Pokeballs. She is not pleased. Lost the chance to catch a Pidgeot.
But I caught it hehehehe

So if the gym near me is already owned by my team, but my Pokemon has much higher CP, can I go become the new leader? Or do we have go lose control first?
What lvl are you that your pokemon are so strong?
Ray Wonder

You can become the leader if you put your higher CP pokemon into that gym. To do this the Gym will have to have an open slot, which means that if it doesn't at the moment, you'll have to raise its Gym Level by training there to raise its prestige. To do that most effectly, use a pokemon that is close-but-lower in CP than the ones there, not your highest. When a slot is opened up you can drop your highest one off.
Anyone who has a pokemon in that gym can get the daily coin bonus.
Nope, evolving Pokemon that are higher CP yield exponential results. I threw away a 10 cp Venomoth

Everybody gets individual instances of the same Pokémon.
So if you see a Weedle, you can catch it and so can everybody near you.
They're the same. Last night me and my girlfriend were using the nearby feature to track two different pokemon at once. They don't behave the same for everyone though cause a Pikachu we found ran away as soon as she tried to catch it but stuck around long enough for me to nab it after like 7 tosses.

Just walking around Queens, I saw a ton of people. Pointed a Jigglypuff out to a super buff guy and he got all excited. This game is incredible.
he's so cute
how the hell are you guys getting so high in CP??
Fear mongering.
If you go to the gym, you'll have the option to add a Pokemon to it, and if it's a higher CP you'll get added to the top of the gym.
The option to add only appears if the gym has less than 6 Pokemon already and someone has leveled the gym up enough to hold another Pokemon.

This shouldn't be so fun, but it is.
2 questions:
Are there any for example daily profits from staying in a gym without being defeated?
Can I somehow check if my Gyms are conquered?

Awesome! Thanks for the info, dudes!
The only feature that seems like a no brainer to me that they didn't add is a photo mode. Let me use the Pokemon I've caught to take funny pictures by putting them in poses and doing the AR thing.
what level are you? I'm 13, when I evolve a pokemon the CP is by default pretty decent.
You joke, but I was once on a bus when the wild encounter music started blaring. I genuinely though for a split second I was under attack.
If you approached me and that started playing I might actually end up throwing something at you reflexively.

Your profits from gyms come from the shop. You can collect every 21 hours.As long as you currently hold the gym, you can collect on that.
On the same note, in the shop in the top right, the number indicates the number of gyms you own. You can't look at them without getting up close to the gym, but between that and gym indicator next to the Pokemon you put in, you get a pretty good idea. If you ever suddenly have a Pokemon at 1HP, it probably was defeated at a gym.
Important to note that I'm pretty sure that you can collect only once every 21 hours, no matter how many gyms you have. So I've been making sure I have several gyms on lock down before collecting.
JebaćBiedę;209553991 said:
1. Yes. As soon as you take over a gym go into the shop and tap the shield icon for some premium currency. You can do this every day for each gym.
2. Go into your Pokemon list and take a look at the one stationed at the gym. If it's still there there will be an icon beside it.

How much data does this game suck up playing?

I can't be bothered today, it's nearing 100F outside and extremely humid. Also the gyms down the street now have 1000+CP Eevee evolutions, lol.

I posted this earlier in the thread, but this is one of my major gripes with the game:
So maybe I'm missing something, but the reward system for gyms is fucking lame
The rewards don't take into account how long you maintained control of the gym. All that matters is that you have control of some gyms at the exact moment you plan on redeeming your pokecoin reward for the shop.
In big cities like LA it's a fucking accomplishment to maintain control of a gym for 20 hours or really any prolonged period of time. But the reward is identical if you were to mantain control for 5 seconds and then redeem.
Like I said, maybe I'm missing something?
IMHO, the gym reward system is retarded and very unfulfilling. You get the same reward if you spend a few mins to take over a few gyms then collect vs maintaining control of a gym for 20 hrs then collecting.

So I just got back from my usual neighborhood walk with this. As neat as it is, I don't think it's for me. One, it killed the whole relaxing feel of the walk for me. Two, the neighbors were looking at me like I was a nuts or like I was taking pictures of thier property. Now I have to hope I don't show up on the neighborhood watch list or something. lol
It's really minuscule. Like, play for a couple of hours and you'll only use 15, 20 mb of data. It mostly uses your GPS and only updates every once in awhile and not in huge batches of data.

If SGDQ wasn't on, I would be spending all my time outside this weekend (except for returns home to charge my battery). I took over a local gym, hatched a rhyhorm, evolved and boosed a pidgeot, and caught a few new pokemon and a whole bunch of pidgey and weedle. I've also discovered a whole bunch of parks and such within walking distance from my apartment. This game is great to incentivize community exploration.
I agree wholeheartedly. I'm finding stuff in my town that I never knew existed. It's gotten me out of the house, either by myself or with friends, a ton more. Even got the girlfriend to drive me around yesterday and catch stuff. She likes driving, I catch Pokemon. Win-win.
