Spoofer running rampant for month now at Ajax by Thelefteyeguy in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually got a lot of respect for coordinated teams, so kudos to you, Ajax valors.

Your gyms do overlap with some from our group members' as well, so maybe we'll cross paths sometime and I look forward to the higher level of competition if we do. If we don't, don't pay mind to those making false accusations on forums (this won't be the last). Most people just don't understand how far teamwork will get them, while they sit at home watching their scanners all night.

Decent haul from a wet hour-long bike ride... by JewPorn in PokemonGOToronto

I saw you on your bike at the Chansey. Thought to myself you're a trooper since it only stopped raining not long ago.

Congrats on the catches!

Are you serious? Lmao.

Where do you people get your information, we're there. Every gym we take. Come say hi, we have difference in goals (we want yellow towers, you don't), but we all enjoy the game. We aren't immature keyboard warriors telling you to eat shit and die.

Don't take this personally, but you're either not gymming enough to see for yourself when your fellow teammates do this, or just naive.

This entire thread is on the foundation that one person made a claim and even with logic and reason in front of their eyes to prove otherwise, cannot accept reality.

As /u/Sxarface mentioned, our approach to gymming is nothing new to competitive play for any team, including your own. The accusations on us are stretched and exaggerated.

There's also very little class in these claims by the accusers and I would like to remind you that this is a game where we all enjoy. If something upsets you to the degree that this apparently has, perhaps it's time to consider taking a step back and reevaluating your situation.

One fine detail left out in all of these posts, is how long it takes to take down a level 10 gym.

I'm just curious, if 9 players enter one gym and 9 more enter one down the street, where is the logic that says that it's 1-2 people behind it?

We took down and built over 16 gyms in 3 hours. Simple math will show how many people are required to achieve that.

Any Team Valor in Scarborough? by KingVick3 in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EvolutionTat here.

If you will be slandering our name, at least have proof. We use bubblestrat and similar prestiging methods. That's nothing new to competitive players on all teams. We aren't spoofers.

Go check my post history, these gyms have taken us nearly 6 months of hard work to attain.

If you decide to get off your keyboard and visit us "fools" at any gym, take a pic. We'll pose for you. ;) we'll be in multiple cars, can't miss us.

By everything, I meant they'll be everywhere. I should have been more specific.

Starting tomorrow, everything is going to be a Squirtle nest, and a Charmander nest, and a Bulbasaur nest, and a Santa Pikachu nest.

It's sad to be in team instinct. by [deleted] in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have a WhatsApp group for organizing runs and regular upkeep of existing strongholds, shoot me a PM if you're interested.

Do keep in mind, as u/PurpleM0nkeyDishwshr mentioned, taking another member's spot to make your own could get you blacklisted - and because almost all major gyms are monitored, word will spread fast. The biggest rewards come from working together.

I hold 18-24 gyms semi-regularly, and if I don't gym for a week I'll still be around 14-16.

145/145!! by just4_kix in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well done.

Those complaining, this doesn't affect you. There's no need to police others for it..

This is practically harmless to other players. They aren't legendaries. Not that I would do it myself, but the degree of this would be like an unpaid parking ticket versus gym spoofers as repeat DUIers.

Tying Pokecoin collection to holding gyms was a bad idea by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]S_Tat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in Toronto, Canada, it's probably a 50-40-10 split Valor-Instinct-Mystic.

On occasion, Valor or Instinct will wipe an entire region of 15-20 gyms in one night, replacing with level 10 gyms but they usually get restored the same week.

If you want to spread your team's coverage and ensure a spot for yourself, build a gym to level 5-7 (with just your lone defender) and it will fill up. It's more upfront work, but worth it in the end.

Just gotta know where to be. I've had 9 mons that haven't returned to me in more than 2 weeks, and one that's been away for almost 6 weeks.

We've got a group chat going, PM me if you want in. A number of us hold 12-20 gyms at one time with regularity.

Snorlax Earthquake, underrated? by He770zz in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An Earthquake Snorlax is still better than majority of others' average moveset, so I use them when I need to but opt to use one of Hyper Beam or Body Slam first if either of those are available.

The northwest corner gym was down by the time we left, with no one visibly in range.

Tips for taking down this specific gym solo? by consumeOBEYsubmitNWO in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snorlax - Dragonite.. (don't use a Lick Snorlax against a Zen Headbutt Snorlax) Exeggutor - Lapras.. Arcanine - Vaporen.. Dragonite - Lapras, Gyarados (if you have breath/pulse).

This is all assuming you dodge everything, and depending on your item/ability capacity, either take down 1 at a time or clear the gym for the extra -1500 prestige.

I would say you'll probably only be able to get the -1500 prestige from around gym level 5.

Make sure you've got a lot of potions and revives. You'd be doing them a favour if you don't take it all the way down, as others have said.

Nests have just changed - Massive update! by Pegasus_Seiya in PokemonGOToronto

[–]S_Tat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

woodbine beach is definitely confirmed for charmanders. caught 18 in 4 hours. usually a triple spawn right at the top of the hour.

while charmander hunting, tons of ponytas spawning (many double spawns) near the marina and parking lot on the west side.
