This is really annoying

I work hard to prestige up my local gyms as much as i can. This one I cannot and is really annoying almost like someone is sabotaging and I wish someone would just knock this dick off. Totally useless defender and an annoying name

The name is not good.

As for prestiging, work on the mon or mons after it - blow past that and get the prestige XP from the next ones in line.

EDIT ...and take a Quagsire with Ms/Eq

Agreed. When I want to prestige a gym with, for example, one or two mons below 2000 CP at the bottom and the rest over 2500, I'd take prestigers with around 1250 CP. It still works very well.

You should report the inappropriate name...

I don't know how/why Niantic could allow these and a simple name parser can weed these out...

Also, at a low level gym, you can just use a low level 1300 Sandslash (level 25 hatched or so) with dual ground moves and go to town. Sandslash is decent HP and great underutilized very common spawn for most folks.

You don't HAVE to get 1000 prestige since it's just 2 more fights vs. a level 7 where you need 8-10k prestige...

There's probably ways to get around name limitations.
I've seen places where you can't write "fuck" and similar, but people manage to write the words anyway, though in different ways.

Sure, it would be nice if Niantic tried to prevent bad words in names, but I doubt there's a way to get rid of them completely.
Also, there's bad words in other languages which makes it even more difficult.

I understand the concept but a jolteon? Why not a vapps or something.

Learn to Bubble, man. That will detour most spoofers / locals. ?

I dont think the OP means he is having trouble prestiging, I think he is mad because they put that in a spot he opened. I got sick of that too, so I figured if they are worthy of being in a gym, open your own spot.

I have it even worse, prestige a gym up to make it stronger and then some asshole throws a random mon he just caught in to get coins. Happened three times in a row, then I was sick of it and wasted two hours and 5 km (Could have been a Chansey candy) to make a fake enemy account just to kick this asshole out.

So you cheated because you were annoyed. Still makes you a gigantic asshole.

It isn't cheating to kick a Lvl 30 player who dropped a CP 43 Pidgey he just caught in an open slot somebody else prestiged up to make the gym stronger or give beginners a chance

You could get a new account strong enough to kick something out of a gym in just 2 hours? What level did you get? Or was someone just throwing in like 10 CP pidgie so all you needed was to get to level 5?

This asshole was dropping in the gym whatever he just caught, CP 43 Pidgey, 200ish Caterpie, such junk. I made an account, walked the river promenade up and down and when I returned to the gym I was already Level 9 and had a Raticate that kicked them without problems.
