Specific PokemonGO Teams Facebook Groups

While there is no actual difference in the team you decide to play on, I’d recommend checking out what the dominant gym colour in your area is first. If your neighborhood gyms are all Red constantly, and you go Blue.. you’re gonna have a hard time leveling up.  To defeat the gym, you’ll need to take on ALL of the pokemon within in, and beat them over and over until the gym rep is 0. Not going to be easy as a lone wolf.

Anyway, I’m sure there are some great guides out there on this, I just wanted to cover some basics.

What’s Missing?

Please drop a comment below if I’ve missed a big Facebook group or Myspace forum or something like that. It’s been hard to pull myself away from the game long enough to blog this out, never mind finding online groups.

Also, this is great:

The Crackmacs Pokemans

Managed to get an Aerodactyl from hatching an egg. Muh baby!

Only I (Mr) plays this game. Usually with mini right behind me. Afterall, she picked the blue team for me, I need her input elsewhere. S’what being a parent is about right? Anyway.

 

My current roster, sorted by strongest (with the most CP).
