I am in the US in EST. Strange.

Edit: I'm getting double candy, but that seems to be it.
Have you put any new eggs in an incubator? The half distance wouldn't apply to any you already had going. Not sure if you will get double candy for ones you already had going, either, I wasn't paying attention.

What's the current meta? What should I try and evolve to actually do gym battles without literally killing every thing on my team?

I haven't played since like the 2nd month after launch and my Dragonite and Lapras are still wrecking fools at gyms.

So far any of the fully evolved gen 1 'mons seem just fine for gym battles provided you line your types up properly. Except for the evolved Chancy, fucking hell is that thing a blood pig.

Is there any reliable way to farm potions besides just spamming pokestops? Seems like they give 9:1 pokeballs to any other kind of item.

Ao- Ao- Tyranitar, Golem, Espeon, Alakazam, Gengar, Machamp, Hariyama, Vaporeon, Dragonite, Gyarados, Flareon, Jolteon, Omastar, Charizard, Venusaur.

All viable in favorable conditions (weather boost, super effective) with the proper movesets. If you get a team of Machamps with Dynamic Punch, you will tear through every Blissey you find in a gym. With a good psychic team you can solo a Machamp raid.

ronne ronne gym stops, especially controlled by your team, give battle items like potions and revives more often. Even more items if you have a gold badge for that gym.

These are the pokemon I use regularly enough to have them added to Pokebattler so I can see what is the best DPS for raid bosses

Doesn't include my defenders, which are Blissey and Snorlax almost exclusively.

I make it a point to stop and clear a blissey/snorlax stocked gym if I see it. Only jerks leave those. Be kind, leave a 10cp behind.

Gyms don't even last 15 minutes here. If you don't put powerful pokemon in them as a deterrent, you get 0 coins.

Fuck I feel so far behind (given I was gone 18+ months). I'm just spam capturing and constantly running out of pokeballs.

Any tips for getting more?
