In Asia, it’s a nightmare.
The PokeStops and events are plentiful and raids are easy to win and great.
But gyms, man. They don’t change because of the smurf accounts. I stopped being able to get free coins because people would walk around my city with corkboards with 6-8 phones, and any time I knocked out a Pokémon at a gym, a new one was immediately in its place.
No more free coins, so I quit entirely.
I once ordered from a wings place and left the comment “arrange the chicken into a pentagram. please, I need this”
They didn’t do it, but I hope I made someone chuckle out of it.
