When you quit the Battle
When you attack the GYM, for example L10 Gym...
In able to save the revives, After beating the 1st-6th defender... Then quit... Does the Prestige will be lowered?
Answers
Sure!
When you battle, each victory will give you 1,000 prestige point and apply immediately to the gym's prestige points.
There are two special case:
1. When you defeat the enemy gym leader, you will have 2,000 prestige points.
2. When you win the lowest pokemon in a level 10 gym, the gym prestige point will be deducted 2,000 points from 52,000 to 50,000.
So there are some nice strategies in battling enemy gyms:
- Against a level 10 gym: win the first two battles and run, the lowest pokemon will be kicked out. The next round you only have to battle against 9 pokemons.
- Against a level 3 gym: win the first two battles and run, the gym prestige will be reduced to 4,000. The next round win 3 battles and the gym are cleared. This allows you to battle the gym leader only one time.
Also to avoid using revives, you can change your attackers as you are battling. I use this a lot.
For a level 10 gym, the trick is to kick the last one fast, nothing more. You will have to battle against 9, then 8 then 7 pokemons to lower the gym prestige point to level 6-7, after that it will be easier...
Up to now, I have only managed to win all 10 pokemons in one round once (that's my best and of course I'm not the best one here :) ). But even in this case the second round is still against 9 pokemons.
It's often hard when soloing against a level 10 gym. But it will be easier when you have teammates. I have some teammates. We meet at the weekend to battle. The trick is to battle one by one, i.e one of us will battle first, when the 1st one win his 1st match, the 2nd one will jump in, when the 2nd one win his 1s match, the 3rd will jump in... If we jump into battle at the same time, we can take down a pokemon faster, but as the defender charges its powerbar quickier, we smt can't predict and dodge its chargemoves and it will cost us more revives and potions.
Using this trick, let say if we have 3 players and each of us win 7 matches (at least) with 6 attackers, the gym will lose 21,000 prestige points so the next round we only have to battle against 8 defenders, and so on.
As of often, the lower the pokemon, the easier the fight. But it's not a fixed rule, so we have to adapt to each situation. As in your example, if all snorlax defenders stand below, I think the joint-force (2-3 teammates at the same time) will be quickier and better.
