If raid already ongoing... you can see from nearby.

You don't necessarily need to be there when it start... you can go later also.

Iinm, you can see the boss once the egg hatched just by looking at the nearby raid screen, and you can then decide to join fighting to defeat it or not.

No need to be at the gym itself, no need to use the pass. Just be nearby.

ok, experienced it myself. egg cracked and saw the weezing on top, didnt join the raid. laugh.gif

juat notice in the raid pass description, it says that you will only have 1 free pass if you dont have it already.

so free raid pass cant be accumulated?

had my very first experience in raid. level 4 lapras.

lost the 1st round, won the 2nd round. got berries and charged TM.

but seriously, who uses blissey to whack lapras? doh.gif and during the raid, it was super laggy, hp and charge power jumping up and down.

why is it way faster to "level up" the gym by feeding berries than to fight and take down the gym? doh.gif

have a thing to ask about gym level.

today i parked my pokemon at a new gym, only fed once and it defended for 2 hours, but my level for that gym was already reaching towards the end.

another gym, i defended for about 15 hours, fed a total of 20+ berries, but my level for the gym is only half.

any reason why? i wanna level up because i read someone here commented that it will give more and better item if the gym level is higher.

There are 4 so-called gym levels you can achieve. When you spin the gym stop, you get awarded a gym badge. This is at basic level (Picture #3 - right). After you earn 500xp for that gym (e.g. defending, feeding berry, spin stop, defeating another team's mon in the same gym, RAID) you get upgraded to a bronze badge (Picture #2 - middle). Then When you earn up to 4000xp you get upgraded to silver (Picture #1 - left) and when you hit 30,000xp upgraded to gold (Err... i dont have yet). Based on what i've experienced, silver badge earns around 5-6 items (5 probably if your team isn't controlling).

This is how you earn:

Bronze Additional XP 500 XP      Total XP 500 XP
Silver Additional XP 3500 XP    Total XP 4000 XP
Gold Additional XP 26,000 XP  Total XP 30,000 XP

1) Adding Pokémon to the Gym (+ 100 Badge XP)
2) Holding a creature at the Gym (+1 Badge XP per minute)
3) Defeating a defending Pokémon (CP of Pokémon defeated divided by 10)
4) Winning a Raid battle (+ 1000 Badge XP)
5) Giving Berries to Pokémon held at the Gym (+ 10 Badge XP, as well as 20 Stardust and a possibility of Candy)

* So, in conclusion, to level up a gym badge from basic to bronze to silver to gold is similar like levelling up your TL from Level 28 to 30 to 33... the grind gets harder and takes longer. Hope this helps.

** Btw, if you purely put a mon in an empty gym and don't feed it a berry, it would need to stay there for 20 days for you to earn a gold badge... just saying... LOL
*
thanks for the detailed explanation, i get it now. thumbup.gif

anyway, i feel that this -> Defeating a defending Pokémon (CP of Pokémon defeated divided by 10) isnt accurate, because i see the gym xp only increase about 10-20 each time. rclxub.gif

I got 3 balls because we dealt the highest damage though...
