I added to a gym that had recently been taken over by my team at 1 am, took me forever to get a pokemon in because my guys are all weaklings. But I finally did it, and collected my 10 coins. An hour later and the lvl 5 gym had already been defeated. :<

Am I missing out by not trying to press gyms? What if I don't want to be the very best, like no one ever was? What if catching them is my quest, and training them I could take or leave?
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

My local gym is built on Theodore Roosevelt's grave. Quite literally.

There's a 500 cp voltion sitting on it from a level 12 trainer, but I'm only level 5 with a 200cp parasect. Nothing I can do about that
I'll give you a moment to let that sink in

So as far as I can tell, of the 151, the only Pokémon that haven't been found yet are Ditto and the 5 Legendaries, I think?

I think I've heard that Ditto is confirmed to be in 10km eggs, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

This makes it much easier to play the game without having to turn data on. I may manage to one day have good enough Pokémon to turn data on and challenge a gym. Just need to catch a Pokemon at 18 past the hour every hour and I'll do it from within bed. Plus a few other spawns I reach on the WiFi

To all those with bad Pokestop locations, you can now request new Pokestops and Gyms.
