Go out in the car in the early hours and gyms will be easy pickings to get pokecoins.. not like I did that or anything whistle
When it's raining is pretty good too. Gyms on out skirts/in villages are solid ones to hold. I don't bother with town centre, they change hands too quickly.

Ah arse, will have to remember that next time I get a pokemon in a gym, probably in 3 months time maybe laugh
Or you could just camp and take the empty gym just as it's been defeated!

Region exclusives have been made a lot more common in the last couple of days, Niantic have changed the spawn rates.

Got the last Ponyta today for my Rapidash and got a Hitmonlee from a 10km egg. Also verified the location of a Charmander nest so that's tomorrow morning sorted out.

So.... What makes a gym impregnable then?

I went for an extra stroll on the way back from the pub tonight to hatch a 10k egg, and came across a level 2 gym held by a solitary 998 CP Yellow Golbat.

I attacked it four times, each time with at least three Pokemon over 1,000 CP, and got utterly shafted every time. On most rounds, I hardly took a single CP off the bloody thing!

I noticed towards the end that I only had a single bar of mobile signal. Could this have something to do with it?

The gyms get a bit ridiculous

There are 4 visible near my house, all four are held by the same bloke from yellow team with a Snorlax, a Dragonite and 2 Arcaines that are all over 2200CP.

They're going anywhere and clearly someone has too much time on his hands!

Gyms aren't about one high Pokemon, they're about a consistent and varied group. If you can get 6+ 1000CP+ Pokemon in there it's gonna be hard for a single person to take down.

Obviously with 2 or 3 people attacking at once even a Lvl 10 gym will fall pretty quickly, gyms are designed to change hands really.

How do you insert more than one of your own Pokemon into a gym?

Sorry, not clear, he has one massive Pokemon "leading" each of the 4 gyms. There are 4 other, different occupants in there too, 5 in one case.

Just observing someone's been playing a LOT to get that many high level Pokemon.

The guy meant he has 1 Pokemon in 4 separate gyms.
