Focus on battles 5sh2g
According to the game's official website, starting May 1 (yesterday), some Fighting-type Pokémon will appear more frequently. On the list are mainly Machop and Makuhita. But the event doesn't stop there, as it also has a certain focus on gym battles.
According to the official information itself, “What would a non-competitive battle celebration be at the Gym near you??”. With that idea in mind, until May 14th, players will receive double experience in Gym Battles.
Along with that, Raid Battles will also bring the increased experience. But on top of that, these battles will also reward players with 3.000 guaranteed stardust, just for participating in the clash. In this guaranteed prize there will also be a rare bullet if the player is victorious.
Possible PVP coming? 2e1w3l
It's not unreasonable to believe that this sudden focus on gym battles could be something more elaborated by Niantic for the future of Pokémon GO. The supposed update with online PVP battle system has been awaited since the launch of the app. Maybe this is already a first step for her.
Gyms, for example, will give different bonuses, depending on the activity performed by the player in them. Badges earned for entering a gym for the first time will give you double experience. Also, when you spin your team's Gym dial (Valor, Instintc or Mystic) you will receive even more items than usual.
What remains now is to enjoy the event and wait for new information. Only in time will we find out if this is the beginning of the fan-requested feature update process or if it's just another disted event.
