My first time taking over a gym. I threw in a shitty Vaporeon. Haha

I wish they brought this trainer style set up back. So much easier to navigate and more epic looking.

Only thing left from 2016 for me is a few mons, most specifically a wild vaporeon I caught with my family. Pretty wild, we had the entire city down at the docks to catch it

Speaking of vaporeon did you know…

You know as much as people shit on Go at least the gym ovehaul was great in my opinion. I hated having to bubble strat just to be able to get a pokemon in a gym.

Back when the majority of the fan base would care more about catching them all than battling and levelling up their CP. Myself included.

Lmao I was like “why does this pic make me so happy” and then I realized it was when playing pogo was actually worth it

I was looking through some old screenshots recently and found some of the AR gym battling. They removed that feature so soon and never re-implemented it. It’s bizarre for a company that prides itself on AR tech innovation.

Vaporeon was so oppressive at that time. Insanely powerful

Remember when gyms were allowed to have multiples of the same pokemon? I remember. Trying to take down a gym full of Blisseys sucked.

The eevee stage of the game , everyone’s best mom was multiple of the 3 eevee evolutions.

This is when you had to battle your own team right? Or am I not remembering things correctly lol

I miss that gym battle system a bit. Not so much the tier system that went with it which determined the number of pokemon. But having to actually battle to attack/defend instead of just throwing a stupid berry that’s possible to use remotely.

Wow, the first and last year I ever played this game. I remember how many people swarmed the public parks, it was kind of awesome.
