No more Gym colour bonus (Raids)

Just did some raids. There is no bonus anymore for gym colour.

What do u think about that change?

PS: Suck it, Team Blue :-)

PS2: Would prefer it if they gave the personal damage more weight than This friend thing. Although I admit and respect the extrem difficulty of opening some gifts...

Haha. Scrolling through the friends list is tougher than Alakazam.

I'm fine with this change. It eliminates some of the cliquey BS that comes from raiding

The hell are you on about? As of yesterday the bonus is still there, they just don't list it anymore if you didn't get the bonus. I'll admit it confused me too until I did a solo raid at a team gym and got all 14 balls.

In my experience since the update, you don't see any indication of gym bonus unless you get it. If you don't, the line is omitted entirely.

In three months or so, when we're all best friends with a few people, when we raid with them, we'll be getting +4 balls on top of whatever else we get, so the gym ownership bonus won't matter as much (unless they make catching harder to compensate for the extra balls, ....)

Haha, I agree, suck it blue team, finally yellow team can get some legendaries.

looks like all those preraid gym snipers cant do that anymore without getting a benefit

It was here an hour ago in my Ex raid. I got 13 balls and the poor Valor got only 7.

Really? That's fine. Now you can get extra premiere with friendship

...yeah, it still lists +2 (and gives you them) if you're a member of the controlling team...

my bad. I never had this bonus since the change so I thought it is gone.

But its ridiculous that a blue member with his auto selected Aggrons, Lugias and Cloysters or a low level gets more balls/rewards than other coloured guys who actually do the work.

How many trainers at your own colour when doing raid ?
Are you raiding together with the same group or just go to lobby with strangers ?
In our raid group there are ussually 6-7 valor when there is 15-20 trainers doing raid
I convince my team to do private only valor, they hesitant at first, but i stand my ground that we can do T5 with our own team.
I even power up my squad to carry some. Sure enough we did it, after that we split group many time, even offer instinct trainer (mostly only 1-2 trainers around) to join us, better join us than blue that ussually get 10+ trainers in raid..

There is a community in my town so usually I know them. But the thing is we are not so big. Even with the yellow, splitting is rarely an option at least now with underwelming bosses like the Regis who require a lot of people.

Last days on prime time we were 7-10 in total. Which means good players get +2 and others still +1.
Yeah and now the blue mostly get +2 for gym colour and +3 for team damage.
While the poor yellow struggles to get +1 for team damage

Which results in:
Good yellow player: 8-9 Balls / 5-6 reward bundles
bad blue player: 12 Balls / 7 reward bundles

How is that fair?
